Anticipating Summer Game Fest 2026

It’s that time of year when it's fun to just wildly speculate about what we might see from Geoff Keighley’s Summer Game Fest.

Little is known, apart from a few games and studios that have already been teased, and so this gives me plenty of room to dream about what surprises the show may have in store. Taking place on June 5 at 2pm PT/5pm ET/10pm BST, here’s how to watch the stream. Let’s not waste any more time, though, and get straight into what to expect from it.

What We Know

We’ve been promised a world-first look at Star Wars: Zero Company, the X-COM-inspired take on a galaxy far, far away. A turn-based tactics game co-developed by Bit Reactor and Respawn Entertainment, it places us in control of a mercenary group tasked with fighting in the shadows of the Clone Wars. Guild Wars developer ArenaNet is confirmed to be attending. Could this finally mean a reveal for Guild Wars 3? Blood Message, set during the Tang Dynasty, blends stealth and melee combat together as you play as a messenger and his son on a dangerous journey across Asia. Teased earlier this week, new driving game Clutch will also be in attendance. Finally, Epic Games will be showcasing a new trailer for its upcoming new season of Fortnite, Runners, revealed by its star, Ben Starr.

Hopes and Dreams

Will Hideo Kojima make an appearance? Another developer that’s no stranger to a stage like this is FromSoftware. Speaking of dreaming, Persona 6 and Persona 4: Revival are on the wishlist. Ubisoft, EA, BioWare, Capcom, Konami, and Square Enix could all have surprises in store. Ken Levine’s ambitious project Judas and the possibility of Bioshock 4 are also topics of speculation. Unlikely mentions include GTA 6 and The Witcher 3’s Songs of the Past expansion. What are you most excited to see at Summer Game Fest 2026?
