Events That Got Canceled Due to Covid-19

E3 2022 event just got canceled and the show will go online now on the scheduled date. This decision of the developers shouldn’t surprise anyone at this point because it was pretty clear that the city of Los Angeles was already having concerns over the surge in cases of the Omicron virus. Super Bowl was canceled earlier this year in SoFi Stadium.

After new regulations were put up last year in LA many events got canceled. NFL is looking for a new location in a state that has more relaxed regulations. E3 cannot change the location as they are tied to the Los Angeles Convention Center.

More than likely, E3 2022 will be very much similar to E3 2021. The E3 event 2022 will be presenting a number of showcases that have been run by people. Who will be showing up under their banner is going to be an entirely different story.

The Summer Games Fest has announced that it will be coming back. The several studios do their own thing and all the banners cannot spend money just because they are under the banner of E3. In the next five months, we will be getting more updates on the upcoming events held by the company.
