Just a month ago, the online version of E3 (for Electronic Entertainment Experience, make no mistake how) released an initial guest list that is as prestigious as it is incomplete. The small hop industry continues to expand its circle and is now adding some big names to its hunting plan, however virtual it may be.

After seeing the presence of Nintendo, Microsoft, Capcom, Konami, Ubisoft (which will take the opportunity to pull a Ubisoft Forward for families out of the hat), Take-Two, Warner Bros, Koch Media and recently the glove of the J-RPG Square Enix, this is SEGA, Bandai Namco and several others joining the party. The organizers took the opportunity to find out a little bit about the anime world and to announce the good news:
Hope you get hungry as we have more chefs in the kitchen this year # E32021! Our latest additions: SQUARE ENIX, SEGA, BANDAI NAMCO, XSEED Games / Marvelous USA, Gearbox Entertainment, Freedom Games, Devious Eye Entertainment, Turtle Beach, Verizon, and Binge Dot Com! pic.twitter.com/DeIB6zFjTX

I don’t care, Chihiro doesn’t
In addition to Gearbox Entertainment, Verizon, Freedom Games, Devious Eye Entertainment, Turtle Beach, Binge and XSEED Games, the ex-builder can FINALLY use the opportunity to reveal his plans for Sonic the Hedgehog’s birthday. The world seems to have forgotten. How? ‘Or what? A film ? Ah, but be polite, huh? We may learn a little more about the recent Token deposits, what’s new in Virtua Fighter 5 Ultimate Showdown, and what prospective investigators can expect with the Judgment announcement coming tomorrow.
As for Bandai Namco, we will be careful not to spell the name Elden Ring, under penalty of fear of From Software, which seems to have gone into Hermit mode lately. And no, I promise it wasn’t about a still-frame version of Naruto.
What do you expect from the announcements from SEGA and Bandai Namco? Will E3 die? Let us know your thoughtful analyst opinions in the comments section below.
