Summer Game Fest is a highly anticipated event for gamers worldwide, and for Aussies, it's an early morning affair. Geoff Keighley's event has become a marketing juggernaut, and while the ads are ubiquitous, the exciting reveals are well worth the early start. Last year's highlight was Resident Evil Requiem, and the year before, I witnessed the unveiling of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. This year, the event promises to be even more spectacular.
The Summer Game Fest showcases are spread across multiple days, with PlayStation's State of Play stream kicking things off on Wednesday, June 3rd. The Xbox Games Showcase follows on Monday, June 8th, and the main Summer Game Fest stream is scheduled for Saturday, June 6th. Each showcase has its own unique timing for Australian audiences, so it's important to note the specific times for your region.
