It’s official: the 2022 edition of E3, the most prominent video game conference in the world, will once again not be taking place this summer. After a January announcement from the Entertainment Software Association (ESA) stated that the trade show would no longer be taking place in-person, the ensuing speculation centered around a potential digital equivalent, similar to the online-only edition in 2021.
At the time the ESA did not confirm whether or not this remote solution would actually happen, but given the parallels to last summer (i.e. COVID-19 still existing) it seemed logical that E3 2022 would continue being held over the internet.
