So, uh, you know that feeling you get when you see a word so many times that it doesn't seem like a proper word anymore?

I think I'm feeling that right now with 'Epic'

I'm not sure how often it needs to be mentioned, but Epic isn't part of the list of publishers part of the Summer Game Fest.

technically as middleware, they're not showcasing games, but engine tech in this instance so therefore the publisher part is meaningless.

Y'all realize this is an hour long showcase event, right? It's gotta be something they can show off.

Secret project releasing tomorrow for free on EGS, and later PS5 XSX that Epic has long been working on lead by ChAir showcasing their next set of UE features, evolution of their cyber city demo, you play a bounty hunter in an expansive world chasing criminal aliens, it's a spiritual successor to PREY2

Nah but really its probably engine related, we know basically everyone at XGS is on Unreal wouldn't surprise me to see Sony do the same

Netflix showing up would be cool. I'd also be down for a Playstation PC launcher so I can stop streaming from Remote Play.

I think it's something cross-buy/play/save-related. Jeff Grubb tweeted about future tech and replaying things to increase your score. Maybe something as wild as buy your game on Xbox and play it on Playstation for free or cheaper too, so you could play it for Gamerscore and then replay it for trophies. I don't know if you need a showcase who lasts 1 hour for that, but there is probably enough to talk about how that works and which games are supporting something like that. Some wild guesses, but could be something in that direction.

Imagine if they announced a Bubsy 3D Remake. In parts.

I would be up for every single edition. Geoff, please make it so.

I'd find cross play and cross save to be a wet fart unless Switch is involved for cross saves.

Feature would rarely be used by most to warrant excitement, as multi console ownership is not a high percentage of people.

You can see it is an Epic roadmap because they missed the target deadline.
