You can expect to see Sonic Frontiers, Hogwarts Legacy, Gotham Knights, The Callisto Protocol and Return to Monkey Island, among others.

It begins Tuesday at 11 a.m. PT, 2 p.m. ET, 7 p.m. BST and Wednesday at 4 a.m. AEST (in case any Australians want to get up respectable early). It’ll last around two hours.

Keighley notorious that more than 30 games will appear, and tweeted a respectable sample:
