Without an E3 to preview new games and premiere trailers, the annual video game stream event, Summer Game Fest, returns for 2026 with the usual batch of world premiere-exclusive game reveals, special guest appearances, and other surprises.

That doesn’t mean there won’t be tons of news between them.
