Through the years, it has just been part of tradition to expect game companies to make their large announcements there.

“As the industry evolves, Sony Interactive Entertainment continues to look for inventive opportunities to engage the community,” says the company issued statement. “PlayStation fans mean the world to us and we always want to innovate, think differently and experiment with new ways to delight gamers.” They add that the company is “exploring new and familiar ways to engage (the) community in 2019.”

ESA, the group behind E3 have also quickly issued a statement of their own in the wake of Sony’s announcement. Wherein they have confirmed that other big industry names such as Nintendo and Microsoft will still attend.

Furthermore, ESA confirms more companies will be attending as well. This includes Activision, Bethesda Softworks, Capcom, and Epic Games. Additionally, Konami Digital Entertainment, Square Enix, Take-Two Interactive Software, Ubisoft, and Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment will also be there.
