E3 is dead, at least, for the time being. Outlets such as IGN, as well as the Entertainment Software Association (ESA), confirmed that E3 2022 won’t take place—in person, or digitally. While this news might come as a surprise to some, the event has steadily been on the decline in recent years, feeling disorganized, and far less necessary than it used to be. Yes, it’s a little sad that E3 is no more, but given the event’s recent history, its death has been a long time coming.
