Summer Game Fest 2026 date and times – plus State of Play, Nintendo, and more

Gaming season is here (Summer Game Fest)

As Summer Game Fest approaches, we rundown the start times, dates, and what to expect from every showcase this summer, from Sony, Xbox, and more.

While it will never quite replace E3, Summer Game Fest has become the closest equivalent for the summer season of major gaming events. 

Whereas E3 was a grand celebration of gaming, featuring every major publisher under the same roof, the Summer Game Fest format is primarily just a livestream, around which other events from console manufacturers take place, starting with Sony’s State Of Play on Tuesday, June 2.
