Summer Game Festival Conference Schedule 2025

The tail end of May and the beginning of June 2025 marks the season where video game companies big and small announce their lineup for the second half of 2025, 2026, and beyond. It’s essentially video game Christmas, but in the middle of the year instead of December.

It won’t be just the Geoff Keighley show that’s representing, though that would be the big one. Other publishers like TinyBuild and even our Southeast Asian game devs and content creators are doing their own livestream showcase for the first time, which we all look forward to supporting.

Here is the list of all the video game shows and livestreams of June 2025 (ish). All times are in GMT+8 (Malaysia, Singapore, The Philippines). Note: we will be embedding the livestreams on this post on the week these shows go live (or hopefully a day or two before).
