Another year has come and gone, bringing with it the reminder that the once-great gaming event, E3, is no more. As the past two years have shown, however, the hype is still going strong, driven by a slew of new announcements and updates from separate showcases, each running their own schedules.
A notable addition to this year’s lineup is the Southeast Asian Games Showcase, joining returning headliners like Sony’s PlayStation State of Play, Xbox Games Showcase, and the main Summer Game Fest 2025 presentation. The celebration of regional developers will put over 45 indie titles in focus, including Art is Rifle, Overhours, Urban Jungle, Eat the Rich, Fallen Tear, Troublemaker 2, Until Then, Lost & Found Co., Building Relationships, Whisper Mountain Outbreak, Acts of Blood, High Times, Singapore’s very own SEDAP!: A Culinary Adventure and Glyphica: Typing Survivor, and more.
Here’s the full list of every showcase announced as part of gaming’s biggest season, with dates and times in Singapore Time (GMT+8):

It’s always nice to have more representation on the global stage, especially with the Women-Led Games, Black Voices in Gaming, and Latin American Games Showcase events shining the spotlight on minority and underrepresented groups in the space. For fans of Hideo Kojima, the Death Stranding 2 premiere promises more news about the highly anticipated sequel before its official launch on 26 June.
The main showcase for Summer Game Fest 2025 will take place on 7 June, but the week-long celebration has already kicked off with the State of Unreal livestream on 3 June, which unveiled a stunning tech demo of The Witcher 4 running on Unreal Engine 5.
