What was E3? (1995 - 2023)
E3 was once the central hub of the video game industry, drawing tens of thousands of professionals from around the world to experience the future of interactive entertainment. The event brought together the most influential figures and companies to unveil groundbreaking technologies and never-before-seen games across consoles, PCs, handheld systems, and the internet.

E3 also offered attendees the opportunity to participate in workshops and conferences tailored to the evolving needs of the interactive entertainment industry, making it not just a showcase but a valuable learning experience for professionals in the field.
However, after years of declining relevance and multiple cancellations, the Entertainment Software Association officially announced the end of E3 in December 2023, marking the conclusion of an era that once defined the gaming industry's biggest reveals and innovations.
