Summer Game Fest 2024 officially announced

In the wake of E3’s cancellation, Geoff Keighley formed a new event – Summer Game Fest. Following the conclusion of 2023’s showcase, Keighley has now confirmed that SGF will return bigger and better than ever in 2024 – cementing it as the new replacement for the Electronics Entertainment Expo.

Making the announcement on Twitter, Geoff Keighley wrote: “After a record-setting 2023, we are excited to share some news: #SummerGameFest will return in June 2024, including our live showcase event hosted by @geoffkeighley and #SummerGameFest Play Days from @iam8bit. Stay tuned for more details in the coming months.”

Typically, Keighley will share a number of stats pertaining to the event’s success, including total viewership and the like. While we have yet to get any concrete numbers, Keighley calling SGF a “record-setting 2023” seems to suggest that the event was a success after all.

With Keighley now in charge of Summer Game Fest, Gamescom Opening Night Live and The Game Awards, the vision for what makes a games showcase lies in the palms of one man. Fortunately, at least for now, Keighley has been doing a good job of celebrating and showcasing the future of video games.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
