The Electronic Entertainment Expo 2019 (E3 2019) was the 25th E3, during which hardware manufacturers, software developers, and publishers from the video game industry presented new and upcoming products to the attendees, primarily retailers and members of the video game press. The event, organized by the Entertainment Software Association (ESA), took place at the Los Angeles Convention Center from June 11–13, 2019. Many companies held its press conferences in the days prior, with the exception of Sony, which skipped the event for the first time.

No new gaming hardware was revealed, though Microsoft announced it was starting work on the next-generation Xbox, whereas Sony had discussed its own preparatory work for the next PlayStation consoles, both which were released in 2020. Most announcements at E3 were focused on new games, many set to release from late 2019 through early 2020. A strong emphasis was made on subscription services, such as Xbox Game Pass and Uplay Plus, as well as streaming services such as Stadia.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic's effects on the industry, this was the last E3 show to have physically taken place as well as the last show held at the Los Angeles Convention center.

Format and changes

edit

E3 2019 ran from June 11–13, 2019 in the Los Angeles Convention Center.[2] In the days prior, major publishers held press conferences, typically as a live presentation in a large theater with streaming broadcast, or through streaming pre-recorded segments, highlighting the new games that are planned for the next year. During the show proper, developers and publishers ran exhibition booths that allowed industry members, the press, retail representatives, and the public to try out the new games and talk with the creators. Several side events were held in nearby venues, including video game tournaments.

As with E3 2017 and E3 2018, the ESA offered up to 15,000 public-access badges to the event.[3]

The ESA's prior contract with the Los Angeles Convention Center had expired with E3 2019, and the ESA has stated they may be looking to other venues for E3 2020 and beyond. ESA has asked the Convention Center and city for additional space nearby, and while there are plans to open up more by 2020, the ESA remained unsure if this will be sufficient for the next show.[4] The ESA eventually renegotiated with the Convention Center through 2023, though have left the option to break their contract if desired.[5] The next event would be cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This is the most recent event to be held in-person.

Sony Interactive Entertainment announced that they would not be attending E3 2019, after having been a presence in all shows since the show's inception. Sony's CEO Shawn Layden stated in a February 2019 interview that with changes in retailer procurement, their own switch to fewer but more quality titles, and the rapid spread of news via the Internet that having a trade show as late as June was no longer helpful, and that Sony had to create its own Destination PlayStation experience in February as to secure retailer sales.[6][7] Both Microsoft and Nintendo stated they would still attend E3.[8] Possibly due to the lack of Sony's presence, the show drew about 3,100 fewer attendees from E3 2018, for a total attendance of 66,100.[1]

Press conferences

edit

Microsoft

edit
 
Keanu Reeves' appearance during Microsoft's show for Cyberpunk 2077 was one of E3 2019's most discussed events.

Microsoft held its press conference at the Microsoft Theater on June 9, 2019.[9] They also demonstrated games through Inside Xbox on June 10, 2019.[10] Among games promoted during the presentation included The Outer Worlds, Bleeding Edge, Ori and the Will of the Wisps, Minecraft Dungeons. Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, Blair Witch, Cyberpunk 2077, Spiritfarer, Battletoads, The Legend of Wright, Microsoft Flight Simulator, Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition, Wasteland 3, Psychonauts 2, Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot, 12 Minutes, Way to the Woods, Gears 5, Dying Light 2, Forza Horizon 4: Lego Speed Champions, State of Decay 2: Heartland, Phantasy Star Online 2, Crossfire X, Tales of Arise, Borderlands 3, and Elden Ring. Microsoft also announced its acquisition of Double Fine and the publishing rights to its upcoming Psychonauts 2.[11][12]

Service and hardware announcements by Microsoft included a Windows 10 version of the Xbox Game Pass subscription service (which would be included in a larger "Game Pass Ultimate" service, bundled with the console version and an Xbox Live Gold subscription),[13] that its "Project xCloud" cloud gaming platform would receive a public beta in late-2019,[14] as well as an updated version of the Elite controller.[15]

Microsoft also teased "Project Scarlett", a successor to Xbox One.[16][17][18]

During the presentation for Cyberpunk 2077, Keanu Reeves briefly took the floor revealing that he was voicing for a character in his likeness for the game. As he came out, one fan yelled out "You're breathtaking!", to which Reeves pointed and replied back to the audience, "You're breathtaking! You're all breathtaking!" Reeves' phrase since became an Internet meme.[19] In planning for E3 2020, ESA president Stanley Pierre-Louis said that the unexpected Reeves moment was something they were inspired by and wanted to help set the potential for in E3 2020 and future expositions.[20]
