E3 2021 Updates (Revised June 12)

If you’re on pins and needles because you want E3 to happen, you’re in luck. They announced a completely free, all virtual event happening this summer. So what’s the schedule? Let’s talk about that and more!

When is E3 2021?

E3 2021 falls on the second weekend of June. That would be the weekend of June 12th to the 15th. So stay tuned because, as always, we have content that will be coming out from now, through that weekend.

Who Will Be the Hosts?

Since it’s going to be catered to basically a streaming event, E3 will have hosts for 2021. The hosts are Greg Miller, Jacki Jing, and Alex Mendez. I hope they’re practicing real hard and they do a real good hostin’ job!

Will E3 2022 Be In Person?

Well, we have zero information on that right now. But it stands to reason the answer would be no. They’ve rebranded themselves this year as Electronic Entertainment Experience 2021. And it may be the same going forward. It saves them money, they don’t have to have a venue, etc. But if they’re back to media outlets only at E3 in person, I wouldn’t be surprised. Everyone else could keep getting this home experience for free.
