Due to the spread of coronavirus [Covid 19], the organizers have decided to cancel E3- in 2020. The expo will be cancelled since it first appeared in 1995, which will also affect news reports about PS5 and Xbox Series X.

Many publishers will announce new games at least in such events, and will also confirm the name of the new generation of consoles. This may no longer happen in your usual format. However, you should assume that some publishers will still post news through their blogs and videos. It's unclear whether this will happen in mid-June.

Microsoft says new plan

For Microsoft, whether it is games or new hardware, the trade fair has always been the stage for important announcements. This time American companies will choose another route.

After cancellation, Xbox owner Phil Spencer Report on Twitter And announced that it will host the Xbox Digital Event instead, and Microsoft hopes to celebrate the next generation of consoles with you. Details will be released in the coming weeks.

Sony Silence

On the other hand, for Sony, for a long time, the company will not participate in E3. The new focus should be on Sony's desire to attract fans. The cancellation of the exhibition has not changed for the time being.

By worrying about the health of employees and fans, Sony will definitely be very worried about the future of publishers. The company will not attend the Game Developers Conference, and the entire gaming industry is eagerly awaiting the release of PS5.
