Infinite Summer 23 - Full Event
Infinite Summer 23 was our biggest event yet! We had more games this year than last year with our BIGGEST event to date. We had TWO exciting main events, three in depth developer interviews, special cosplay and fan art competitions, new content premiers, and even MORE trailers than last year. I am excited to see how this event has evolved, and want to thank our many amazing creator partners who helped bring this to life, and entrusted us with their trailers, cosplays, fanarts, and of course, their time. Additionally to our own event, we also covered the major showcases and events happening in the industry from Xbox, Summer Game Fest, and Apple.
It was a major event, so in case you missed some parts of it, here is a full event break down. Scroll down for a full break down, recap, and itinerary for Infinite Summer 23!

Industry Coverage
June is at the center of the gaming news world. It was once home to E3, and now in the post-E3 World, it has risen to Summer Game Fest, and other many major gaming events and showcases. The massive gaming coverage of June was actually inspired the original idea for Infinite Summer in the first place, so it is exciting to keep this "industry news core". We cover three massive ones with the Xbox Games Showcase 2023, Summer Game Fest 2023, and very surprisingly the gaming news filled WWDC23 from Apple!
