(Los Angeles, CA) -- Gaming's big summer show has been canceled.
E3 was set to return in Los Angeles for the first time since 2019, before the COVID-19 pandemic put large gatherings on hold worldwide.
But this year's show was called off after huge gaming companies including Nintendo, Sony, Microsoft, and Ubisoft said they wouldn't participate.
E3 2023 was scheduled for June 13th through the 16th.
In an email to employees, organizers said E3 2023 "simply did not garner the sustained interest necessary to execute it in a way that would showcase the size, strength, and impact of our industry."
