Geoff Keighley’s Summer Game Fest is upon us, taking its rightful place as the de facto summer video game experience after the shuttering of E3 last year.
As is also tradition, Keighley has released his annual “Geoff’s Trailer,” a hype real spliced together of the biggest and best announcements that fans can expect at Summer Game Fest.
There’s not necessarily any surprises in the trailer, but it does do a good job of setting the tone fans can expect from the show. There is, of course, a lot of Shadow of the Erdtree in here, which makes sense. The DLC is imminent, and Elden Ring‘s premiere was at Keighley’s Game Awards broadcast, so it should have a big showing here.
There are other, similarily big games featured, too, hinting we may see more over the next week. The trailer features glimpses of the upcoming Dragon Ball Sparking! Zero and what looks to be the next Batman game, the Meta-exclusive Batman: Arkham Shadow.
Summer Game Fest will air live on various platforms, including YouTube and Twitch, on Friday, June 7, at 5 PM ET/2 PM PT. The show will be a live production with trailers, reveals, and news of the biggest games from a plethora of devs.
In addition to the main SGF show, there are a number of highly anticipated ancillary programs over the surrounding days, including Devolver Direct and the much-hyped Xbox Games Showcase + Call of Duty Direct.
There will also be some kind of Nintendo Direct soon, though details remain scarce. Though Nintendo is unaffiliated with Summer Game Fest, they do tend to schedule their presentations around the same weekend, so it may be sooner rather than later.
