Geoff Keighley’s annual June showcase for videos games has officially happened, and it was a big one. Across a two hour event — and another hour for Day of the Devs — we got news about the third Final Fantasy VII remake game, a new look at Control Resonant, the reveal of Tupac for RGG Studio’s Stranger Than Heaven, a July 1.0 launch date for Palworld, and a whole lot of 2027 release dates as developers steer clear of GTA VI in November.
Summer Game Fest Live sits squarely in the middle of a big run of video game showcases. PlayStation hosted a State of Play on Tuesday that featured more footage of September’s Wolverine and the announcement of a new God of War game, God of War Laufey. On Saturday, there are shows like the Wholesome Direct and the Future Games Show, and the Xbox Games Showcase and PC Gaming Show take place on Sunday.
