The Demise of E3: A Look at Its Downfall and Future

The show had been losing relevance in recent years, with key companies like Sony and Microsoft pulling out and attendance declining. While some in the industry believe that the need for a large-scale event like E3 is no longer necessary, others argue that it provided a crucial moment for the industry to come together and showcase its games to the world.
