It’s a big weekend for video games, and IGN (note: IGN and Mashable share the same parent company) will be contributing to that with IGN Live 2024.
The event, which streams live from June 7 to June 9, also happens to coincide with Summer Game Fest. You can get tickets now to attend in-person. However, even if you can’t or don’t want to go to the Los Angeles-based event, it’s still worth checking out the full list of announced partners and guests. Be warned: It skews heavily towards general pop culture, not just gaming.
Here’s a small taste of what you can expect from IGN Live.
