Summer Games Fest 2023 takes the helm as the main video game conference for this June after the cancellation of E3 2023 earlier this year.
This year Geoff Keighley's Summer Game Fest proceeds conferences from Ubisoft, Devolver Digital and Xbox - whose showcase will include a look at Starfield. There are also a number of other conferences running alongside the Summer Game Fest, including the PC Gaming Show. So, despite the lack of E3 this year, June still promises to be packed with new game teasers and reveals.
Below you'll find a complete Summer Games Fest 2023 conference schedule as we know it so far, running in chronological order and including the shows outside of Geoff Keighley's grasp, and will update it if more events are announced.

Due to the cancellation of E3 2023, the Summer Game Fest has become the main video game conference for this June. Beginning with an Opening Showcase, this event proceeds a set of conferences spread across one week in which Devolver Digital, Xbox, Ubisoft and others will take the stage.

If you've followed the summer video game conferences in the past, then you'll know that all of the big three console publishers like to have a show around this time. Yet, you've probably noticed that Sony is absent from the schedule above. At the time of writing, the next Nintendo Direct had recently been announced.
In the case of Sony, this is because they've already had their version of a summer conference last month. The PlayStation Showcase livestream ran on Wednesday 24th May and it gave us a look at a variety of upcoming games, including Final Fantasy 16, Alan Wake 2 and Marvel's Spider-Man 2. Not to forget the reveal of Project Q - a DualSense controller with a screen, which is powered by the Cloud. (Reminds me of the Wii U controller...)
