Next iteration in “one of 2K’s biggest and most beloved franchises” to be announced at Summer Game Fest 2024 Showcase

The big Summer Game Fest kickoff show is only a couple days away, and, as you would expect, the teases for what we can expect at the show have begun. It seems like Summer Game Fest will be particularly good for horror fans, as a majority of the things teased for the show thus far have been horror related.

We are so back. And by “we,” I mean video games. At a half-dozen slickly produced promotional events over the next week, games will be teased in the form of captivating cinematic trailers with promises to push the medium forward.

Summer Game Fest is fast approaching, and while many speculate on the world premieres we are bound to see, creator and host Geoff Keighley is attempting to reign in some expectations ahead of Friday's show.

The full lineup of streams spans the weekend of June 7, 8, and 9, with several different showcases and directs during those days.
