GamesIndustry.biz reported on Friday that PAX organizer ReedPop and ESA (Entertainment Software Association) have parted ways by a "mutual decision" and thus ReedPop will not work on future E3 events. The ESA is still planning an E3 event for 2024, but it will not return to the Los Angeles Convention Center next year. (GamesIndustry.biz is owned by Gamer Network Limited, a ReedPop company.)

The ESA had announced a cancellation for both the physical and digital versions of the E3 2023.

IGN had confirmed to IGN on March 28 that they would not attend the E3 2023 video game expo event.

The ESA canceled the digital component as well. The ESA had stated at the the time that it would return in 2023 with "a reinvigorated showcase" "live from Los Angeles."

E3 2021 took place as a "reimagined" participated in the online event.

The ESA decided not to hold an online event that year.

E3 last had a physical event in 2019, before the COVID-19 pandemic. Sony not appeared since.
