In addition to the usual stuff, like new and upcoming game reveals, publisher press conferences, developer interviews, panel discussions, and more, this year’s E3 is introducing a new gaming awards segment that panelists and media sponsors will judge.
These include editors from publications like IGN, GameSpot, PC Gamer, and GamesRadar+, who will be in charge of awarding the “Most Anticipated” game of E3 2021 – and showcase other “Most Anticipated” games from participating publishers and developers during the four-day broadcast event.
“For this year’s event, we are collaborating with editors at some of the world’s leading video game media outlets to create the Official E3 2021 Awards Show, recognizing the show’s most anticipated games,” said Stanley Pierre-Louis, President & CEO of the ESA.
“The broadcast is going to be packed with exciting announcements and reveals, and celebrating innovative publishers and developers is an ideal way to close E3 2021.”
Winners will be announced on the last day of the event, which will be hosted by Greg Miller, Jacki Jing, and Alex “Goldenboy” Mendez.
You can join the event on the official E3 2021 portal and app, as well as on its primary hubs, including Twitch, Youtube, Twitter, and Facebook
