There are a ton of awesome events happening in the coming days, all focused on sharing gaming news and announcements ahead of the summer. Steam's Summer Showcase of Summer Showcases organizes many of them into one page to make it easier (we hope!) to explore the different shows and perhaps even discover new ones.

Take a look at our landing page to see a schedule of livestreams, and to learn more about each event and their announcements over the next week or so.

Have fun, and here's to our marketing department working a bit harder next year on a shorter, easier-to-say title. Or maybe not?

Check out the Showcase of Showcases here: https://store.steampowered.com/sale/summer_showcase_2024
