How to Watch Summer Game Fest 2026 and What to Expect

It’s that time of year again. Summer Game Fest is kicking off with a weekend’s worth of exciting events, reveals and announcements. The headlining event of it all is the Summer Game Fest keynote, once again hosted by organizer Geoff Keighley. Co-host Lucy James will also help present world premieres and more.
Today, the Summer Game Fest conference is being held at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles. Here, media and creators gather for an afternoon of live trailer screenings. The event is thankfully being live-streamed globally, so you don’t have to miss a thing. Summer Game Fest kicks off with its annual conference at 5 PM ET/2 PM PT.
The event is sure to be packed with game reveals and updates to known titles. Much of the show is being kept under wraps, but there have been teases made over the days leading up to the event. For instance, the official Among Us social account has announced that “the Crewmates will have some very special things to show” during the event.
