Summer Game Fest 2026—What Games Could Be Revealed and Announced

In just a few hours, the main gaming event of the year - Summer Game Fest 2026 - will take place, without exaggeration. As was the case with the PlayStation event, State of Play, which took place on June 2, fans expect that the upcoming show will showcase gameplay of many upcoming projects, as well as announce games that have long been in development. You can also check out everything that was announced and revealed during PlayStation’s State of Play.

At the moment, the following projects have confirmed their participation in Summer Game Fest: Among Us, CLUTCH, Star Wars Zero Company, and Blood Message, and in this article, you will learn which other games may be shown and announced at the show.

Hogwarts Legacy 2

It has been confirmed that Warner Bros. Games and Avalanche Software are working on the second installment of Hogwarts Legacy, which was reported back in 2024. According to rumors, the studio plans to release the game next year, shortly after the premiere of the new Harry Potter series from HBO. Moreover, some insiders have claimed that the plot of Hogwarts Legacy 2 may be connected to the upcoming project, and in this case, releasing both projects around the same time makes sense.

Among other details, it is reported that Hogwarts Legacy 2 will have multiplayer, Quidditch, as well as the ability to visit iconic locations from the Harry Potter universe, including Privet Drive and Diagon Alley.

Resident Evil Code: Veronica Remake

One of the most anticipated announcements at the upcoming Summer Game Fest is the remake of Resident Evil Code: Veronica, which is reportedly Capcom's top priority at the moment and could become the largest remake in the history of the series.

The studio itself has not yet confirmed work on the game, but it is assumed that the game will be directed by the iconic duo Kazunori Kadoi & Yasuhiro Anpo—the ones who directed the Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 4 remakes—and players can expect a lot of innovations, including a semi-open world, an expanded storyline, and a lot of new content. In addition, reliable insider Dusk Golem also suggested that the announcement of the Code Veronica remake is possible at Summer Game Fest, but Capcom may also showcase a story DLC for Resident Evil Requiem, which is expected to release closer to the end of the year.

FromSoftware New Game

According to a recent leak and reports from previous years, FromSoftware is actively working on their new single-player project. It is assumed that the studio's new game is called Cerulean Onslaught and is a dark-action RPG, where players can sail the ocean exploring islands, with their own ship also acting as a hub. According to that same recent leak, the official announcement is expected at Summer Game Fest, and the release is scheduled for August this year.

Injustice 3

Summer Game Fest 2026—What Games Could Be Revealed and Announced 4

It has been almost 10 years since the release of the superhero fighting game Injustice 2, but NetherRealm Studios has still not confirmed the development of a sequel. Despite insider rumors and leaks, the head of the studio, Ed Boon, recently stated that the developers are working on a new Mortal Kombat, without saying a word about Injustice. Nevertheless, considering the order of game releases in the franchises, the studio's next project should be a game about superhero battles, especially since it leaked in the resume of one of the Warner Bros. Games employees.

Star Wars: Jedi 3

Another project that has long been the subject of rumors is the new Star Wars: Jedi title from Respawn Entertainment. Early reports suggested that this would be the largest project in the franchise, and recently insider Tom Henderson not only speculated about a game announcement at Summer Game Fest but also revealed that the game will feature a time jump, allowing the main character, Cal Kestis, to be slightly older. Moreover, Lucasfilm itself has also teased that more stories focused on the Jedi are ahead.

Cronos: Lazarus

Summer Game Fest 2026—What Games Could Be Revealed and Announced 6

Bloober Team, a studio known for the remake of Silent Hill 2 and Cronos: The New Dawn, confirmed its participation in Summer Game Fest but did not reveal its plans—however, a leak did. Apparently, the studio is preparing to present DLC for last year's horror, Cronos, and it will be called Lazarus. Key art and the first screenshot have already leaked, but it is possible that this will not be the only game they showcase.

Max Payne 1&2 Remake

Summer Game Fest 2026—What Games Could Be Revealed and Announced 7

At State of Play, Remedy presented a new trailer for Control Resonant, dedicated to the game's story, and also confirmed that the game will be released on September 24. Nevertheless, there is another project in development—the Max Payne 1 & 2 remake. It was recently announced that the game has entered full production, and it would be nice to see the first teaser and especially to hear the legendary melody. Summer Game Fest could be the perfect place for that, considering that the release of the remakes is rumored to be scheduled for 2027.

Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3

Summer Game Fest 2026—What Games Could Be Revealed and Announced 8

Square Enix and Creative Business Unit I are officially working on the remake of Final Fantasy 7 Part 3, and, according to a recent report by insider NateTheHate, an announcement can quite possibly be expected at Summer Game Fest. It was previously also reported that the release of Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3 will take place in 2027—the year of the original Final Fantasy VII—which makes perfect sense, as does an upcoming announcement.

Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet

Summer Game Fest 2026—What Games Could Be Revealed and Announced 9

A lot of fans were surprised that there was no place for Integalactic: The Heretic Prophet - a new IP from the developers of The Last of Us, Naughty Dog—at the recent State of Play event. Although we haven't heard official news about the game for a long time, its release is tentatively scheduled for 2027. Perhaps Sony intentionally didn't show the game at State of Play, preparing a surprise for the Summer Game Fest - at least, that's all we can hope for.

Marvel Games' Title (Titles)

Summer Game Fest 2026—What Games Could Be Revealed and Announced 10

Marvel's Wolverine became one of the highlights of State of Play, as Insomniac Games finally showed its gameplay and revealed a lot of new details. Nevertheless, this may not be the last project in the comic universe shown this week, as one insider reported - namely, that 4 games will be shown. Currently, several Marvel games are in development by different studios - Arkane Studios’ Marvel's Blade, Motive Studios’ Marvel's Iron Man, and Skydance New Media’s Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra. Considering that Marvel's Wolverine has already been shown, it is possible that it is these players who will get the attention.

Bonus: Half-Life 3

Summer Game Fest 2026—What Games Could Be Revealed and Announced 11

Almost no major gaming show goes without rumors about the announcement of Half-Life 3—and Summer Game Fest is no exception. However, it's not that simple here. Over the past couple of weeks, the show's host Geoff Keighley has repeatedly teased at the game's announcement, but what is especially important is that Half-Life 3 was allegedly supposed to be confirmed at The Game Awards 2025 —where Geoff Keighley was also the host. In addition, several insiders have confirmed that the game does indeed exist, is in a playable state, and its release is supposed to coincide with the launch of the Steam Machine. Perhaps today could be that very day?
