The PC Gaming Show is back again for E3 this year, and today the showcase’s schedule has been detailed in part, revealing a number of announcements from major PC gaming developers and publishers. Of particular note is the fact that Valve will be in attendance with an announcement of its own about Steam.
While it’s possible the news could be nothing more than a sale or changes to its storefront UI, there’s always the chance it could be something more significant.
In a press release sent to Twinfinite, Tim Clark, PC Gamer global editor-in-chief Evan Lahti said of today’s lineup announcement:
“PC gaming retains its position as the world’s most vibrant gaming platform. The PC’s library of weird, innovative, and genre-pushing games grows every week. The PC Gaming Show is about shining a bright light on as many of these new projects as we can.”
Tim Clark, PC Gamer brand director, also weighed in:
“We wanted to bring the visual spectacle of some of our favorite games and fiction to the E3 stage. We’re big fans of shows like Mystery Science Theater 3000, and this theme will let our hosts channel the fun of E3.”
