The Electronic Entertainment Expo, E3, is back but in an all-digital format unlike previous years where the multi-day showcase packed exhibitors and attendees into the halls of the Los Angeles Convention Center.

Scheduled Saturday, June 12^th through Tuesday, June 15^th, 2021, E3 will host developers, distributors and other industry members in the field of video games. In years past, giants like Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft would open the expo with presentations extolling their latest projects in front of thousands of media and fans, giving a taste of what to expect in the coming months. Smaller companies would setup booths during the three-day show allowing people to get hands-on experience with new hardware and software.

While 2021 has handed new challenges to the convention experience, E3 has shared the schedule for keynote presentations and demonstrations spread over its four days. Notably absent from this year are Sony and Electronic Arts.
