The PC Gaming Show is different from other Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) events. It doesn’t focus on a single publisher or game company. Instead, it celebrates PC gaming.
But it still had plenty of announcements and trailers. Below, we list everything we saw at this year’s PC Gaming Show.
Satisfactory
This is from Coffee Stain Studios. Satisfactory is a multiplayer first-person game with an emphasis on building. And it has a lot of conveyor belts! Like, so many conveyor belts, guys. It has trains, too! The trailer also showed players riding around in dune buggies. A closed alpha is starting within the next few months.
