Does E3 need PlayStation? - The GamesIndustry.biz Podcast
Manage episode 250343381 series 1340359
Rebekah, Chris and Brendan come together for a special edition of the podcast, discussing this week's biggest news: Sony will not be attending E3 for the second year in a row.
While the platform holder has other plans to get the PlayStation 5 in front of the masses ahead of its launch this Christmas, including attendance at "hundreds" of other consumers events throughout the year, we ponder some of the reasons the company has opted out of the industry's biggest annual showcase.
We also discuss why so many major publishers, such as EA, have diminished or removed their E3 presence over the past few years, and speculate as to how the ESA can transform the event in a way that wins them back.
As always, you can get your daily dose of news, analysis and insight into the world behind video games at www.gamesindustry.biz.
