Summer Game Fest
Summer Game Fest is the biggest event of the Summer and is probably the closest we’ll get to something resembling E3 this year. This event, funded by Geoff Keighley, is a four month-long event featuring reveals, demos, and much more. Some of the biggest publishers are involved, but we’ll get to them later.

Tennocon 2020
Tennocon 2020 will be taking place digitally on July 11. This event will have news on updates coming to Wareframe directly from developer Digital Extremes.
Gamescom: Open Night Live
The final event of the Summer Game Fest will be an all-digital version of Keighley’s yearly show, Gamescom: Open Night live. It will feature developers and publishers from all around the gaming industry.
We don’t currently know what exactly will be shown. However, it’s hard to imagine a world where they don’t try to close out SGF with a bang. You can stream this event on August 27.
