Title: e3 2023 has been cancelled

Well, I had a feeling this was going to happen, but with this tweet, it's now official.

I question if it's even coming back at this point.

Ouch. I haven’t been since 2018, would be weird if it disappeared forever. I have noticed most game companies are far preferring to just host their own event and make their own announcements, the think Covid just let the cat out of the bag and it’ll be hard for Omni-cons to recover

Yeah, bummer. I've been wanting to go to one since I started my job at a game localization company, but they've all been cancelled :/ Oh wellllllll.

I have read E3 is over indefinitely. We now have to learn about new releases from the companies themselves or Ign. I must say my heart sinks, I loved E3.

Shoot, I better go to PaxEast one of these days. It's the last major gaming con I've never attended, if it ends up going the way of E3 I might never get to

I’d go to Pax. It really is a shame that gaming news is relegated to articles, YouTube, and websites. I miss G4 TV and X-Play with Morgan Webb and Adam Sessler.
