What was announced at Summer Game Fest 2025?
Geoff Keighley hosted the June 6 main show, a two-hour presentation of premieres, trailers and updates, as reported by GameSpot’s event gallery. Keighley opened with the line, “This show has a little bit of everything,” according to PC Gamer’s live blog.
The range bore that out: the show moved between new entries and projects, updates to familiar games, and an in-game Fortnite event. The list below highlights the notable announcements covered in GameSpot’s gallery; it is not a complete item-by-item transcript of the livestream.
