When this year's E3 was officially cancelled, physical specialists Limited Run Games was one of the first companies to confirm it would still be going ahead with its own digital conference (filled with announcements about upcoming physical releases).
The show was scheduled to take place on 8th June, but will now air at a later date. Here's the company's official statement:
We will not be hosting our yearly LRG3 show on Monday, June 8 as originally intended, but rather a later date to be announced next week. Thanks for your patience!
This isn't the only event that has been postponed in recent times. Earlier this week, IGN delayed its 'Summer of Gaming' until 8th June, and the Future Games Show has also been pushed back to next week - it will now take place on 13th June.
Will you be tuning in to any of these events when they do finally air? What announcements would you like to see or hear from LRG? Leave a comment down below.

“Earlier this week, IGN delayed its 'Summer of Gaming'”
When did this happen? I thought it started in May?
I'd love it if LGR announced a physical copy of Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time.
I live near their facility in NC. Still get my games super late 😂 love supporting them though. Forever Physical
This is the biggest tragedy of E3 cancellation to date.
I just ordered Shantae and the Pirate's Curse from them, and pre-ordered Seven Sirens and a cute Shantae plush. Hopefully WayForward will bring Risky's Revenge - Director's Cut to Switch, and collaborate with LRG again to make physical copies. I'd buy it in a heartbeat!
@ZeldaFanboy78 I remember reading that it can be difficult buying from them. Delayed orders. Lack of communication.
Last year they announced Blaster Master Zero at E3, and they just started taking preorders!
What is with the 1-week delays? Shantae and the Seven Sirens' EU version was also slapped with a 1-week delay due to "problems" that they wouldn't say what were.
I get why all these events are being delayed, but I doubt they would overshadow the protests. Hell, I doubt even the protests would have overshadowed the announcements
Getting the gaming community involved in political nonsense was a mistake.
Given the amount of poltics that's infected gaming, stuff like this was inevitable and we're all paying, and will continue to pay for it.
I hope everyone enjoys their empty corporate statements along with the delays.
@outsider83 I have ordered from them many times and never had
an issue. And I am located in the EU.
@JuiceMan_V have u considered popping over to 4chan for a round of applause?
@Crockin
I'm only responding because you obviously took some effort to post that nonsense.
👏
