These days, nearly every console manufacturer has its own proprietary digital convention. Thanks in no small part to the lagging interest (and recent cancelations) of E3, the gaming industry lacks that powerhouse unifying event that gamers used to regularly be able to rely on. This year’s summer of game reveals started with PlayStation’s State of Play event, but that was only an appetizer for what Summer Game Fest 2022 is shaping up to be. Unlike similar expos, Summer Game Fest is that one great big showcase that celebrates everything gaming. At the very least, SGF audiences can expect a smorgasbord of demos and trailers from across the industry. Of course, what good is a clip show of game news and announcements if you can’t watch it? Here’s everything we know so far about the event.
Summer Game Fest 2022: Start Time and Date
Unlike other digital events that have cropped up to fill the void left by E3’s cancelation, Summer Game Fest 2022 is a multi-day extravaganza that will include a variety of prominent game industry faces and names. However, the main presentation of the multi-day event (which will feature announcements and reveals from across the video game industry) will take place on June 9 at the following times:
How to Watch Summer Game Fest 2022 Live Stream
While Summer Game Fest 2022 will mostly consist of individual studios holding their own announcements under a single banner, since the entire convention is the brainchild of Geoff Keighley, he will start the festivities on his own Twitch and YouTube Channels. To be more precise, he will host them on The Game Awards Twitch and YouTube channels (he created that show too, you know). For your convenience, we’ve embedded the show’s YouTube live stream page below: If you want to watch some of the smaller presentations associated with the event (or the larger presentations that are officially listed as SGF “partners”), you’ll need to head over to those presenter’s official streams. We’ll have more information on how to view some of those shows as we draw closer to the start of those events. Hopping around like this might seem annoying, but you won’t have to do it more than once or twice a day to get all the news.
