IGN is loading up its annual fan gathering with a heavy roster of games, television, and celebrity appearances. The event takes place June 6 and 7 at the Magic Box in downtown Los Angeles, with livestreaming available worldwide through IGN's platforms. Tickets are already available for purchase.
The gaming side features Ubisoft's upcoming Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced alongside PowerWash Simulator 2 from FuturLab. ID at Xbox will bring multiple playable titles to the floor. Voice acting heavyweights Roger Craig Smith and Patricia Summersett, known for work on Sonic the Hedgehog, Batman, Princess Zelda, and Star Wars Outlaws, will be on hand. THQ Nordic is also bringing Gothic Remake to showcase.
Television and streaming content dominates a significant portion of the lineup. Critical Role and Prime Video will present Season 4 of The Legend of Vox Machina. Apple TV's Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed brings actress Tatiana Maslany to the event. Meanwhile, AMC+ and Shudder's The Terror: Devil in Silver rounds out the prestige television presence, while Hulu's Deli Boys stars Asif Ali and Saagar Shaikh will discuss their show with attendees.
Hollywood representation extends beyond streaming. Actor Sung Kang will attend to promote his film Drifter. Apple TV's Cape Fear and Fathom's theatrical release of Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War: The Calamity are also part of the programming.
IGN Live functions as a broad celebration spanning games, movies, television, comics, and collectibles. The event structure includes thousands of giveaways, exclusive trailer premieres, live celebrity interviews, and hands-on game stations. The full lineup continues to be announced leading up to the event, with IGN updating its website regularly through June.
Last year's edition delivered major moments, including the full cast of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 debuting their documentary's first 10 minutes and The Last of Us creative team breaking down Season 2's most pivotal episodes. Ewan McGregor discussed his Long Way Docuseries, and the Invincible VS creators shared the inspirations driving their video game adaptation.
The event is open to all ages, making it accessible for families and serious fans alike. With the three-month runway to June, expect additional announcements that could reshape the already substantial roster.
Author Emily Chen: "A well-stacked show that actually acknowledges IP beyond the usual suspects, but the real test is whether any of these appearances lead to the kinds of surprise reveals that made last year's event worth the LA traffic."
