According to the director, the reason for canceling E3 was the new reality in holding such events. There is no point in going anywhere, spending money on travel, renting premises and paying for stands, the internet is quite enough to organize events. Pierre-Louis also noted that the exhibit is more than 20 years old and that the event “serves as a central showcase for the video game industry in the United States and around the world.”
“We know it is difficult to say goodbye to such a beloved event, but it is the right thing to do given the new opportunities the industry has to attract fans and partners,” the ESA chief said.
