E3 shifts to online-only event because of Omicron concerns
The Entertainment Software Association is shifting the Electronic
Entertainment Expo to an online-only event out of concerns around the
pandemic.
“Due to the ongoing health risks surrounding COVID-19 and its potential
impact on the safety of exhibitors and attendees, E3 will not be held in
person in 2022,” the ESA said in a statement to GamesBeat. “We remain
incredibly excited about the future of E3 and look forward to announcing more
details soon.”
The ESA isn’t the only one looking forward to summer gaming events; shortly
after the news that E3 2022 would be a virtual event, gaming industry
personality Geoff Keighley announced that his own “Summer Games Fest” event
(which itself strove to fill the space left by E3’s cancellation in 2020)
would also be returning in 2022.
簡單來說就是因為疫情又爆了
所以決定只開線上直播
然後Summer Games Fest回歸
