This year's show "didn't fit into" Nintendo's plans, and it decided not to participate. It continues to be a "strong supporter," though.
VGC claims Konami has big plans in place for this year's E3, with revivals of two of its biggest properties set to be unveiled.
Ubisoft reiterates that it will be attending this year's E3 event, and will be bringing a "strong lineup" to its showcase.
The company expects to release the likes of Assassin's Creed Mirage, Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, and The Crew Motorfest before April next year.
A new report indicates that Nintendo might skip E3 this year because of a lack of games, and that Microsoft is still under negotiations for the event.
Next year's E3 will be a four-day event that will have days allotted for business and consumer experiences, and will also partner with other events around the same time.
ReedPop – the veteran event production company behind PAX, New York Comic Con, Star Wars Celebration, and more – will produce E3 2023.
"We’re excited about coming back in 2023 with both a digital and an in-person event," says ESA president Stan Pierre-Louis.
