E3, the Electronic Entertainment Expo, will for the third year in a row forgo an in-person event at the Los Angeles Convention Center.

The George R.R. Martin-involved “Elden Ring” is just one of the video games — many pandemic-delayed — we’re anticipating in 2022.E3 typically brings more than 65,000 fans and industry professionals to the Los Angeles Convention Center and surrounding events every summer.

While the merits of E3 have become a subject of media debate in recent years — especially with some top game companies, including Sony Interactive Entertainment, opting to no longer participate in the event — the loss of the convention this year is a blow to Los Angeles. Sony this past week unveiled a look at its new virtual reality headset, the PSVR 2, at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, held in person despite the Omicron surge.

While E3 has struggled in recent years to attract some of the industry’s biggest players — Electronic Arts, for instance, has staged its own festival in Hollywood the same week as the Expo — the loss of E3 leaves a large gap in the summer convention calendar for Los Angeles.
