Entertainment Software Association (ESA) has officially announced that the E3 2023 was cancelled. According to IGN, the reason for the cancellation was the lack of interest from the public.

It was a difficult decision. Because of all the effort we and our partners put into this event, but we had to do what was right for the industry and E3. We appreciate and understand that interested companies would not have game demos ready, and that resource issues made attending E3 this summer an obstacle they could not overcome. For those who were preparing to attend E3 2023, we regret that we can’t give you the presentation you deserve and expect from the ReedPop event.

Side note: Game conferences and their pros

Some companies didn’t have time to prepare demos for E3 because their development schedules changed during the pandemic. In addition, due to the problems in the global economy, some companies have reduced marketing spending and considered participating in smaller events, including in the online format.
