Playstation E3 2017 Experience Live In Theaters June 12th

May. 29, 2017

For the third straight year, theaters across NA will broadcast the conference live, helping to deliver the larger than life experience for those who can’t make it to E3 in person. Those who attend will go home with a poster and one of the Playstation collectible cards as well as some digital rewards from the Playstation Store.

Tickets are free and can be obtainedherebeginning Tuesday, May 30th at 10:00 AM PT while supplies last. Attendees who have registered for a ticket will be seated on a first-come, first-served basis until the theater reaches capacity, so get there early because receiving a ticket does not guarantee you a seat. Attendees must be 17 years of age or older to attend this event. These are the theaters where you can catch it, sorted by state:

So there’s your opportunity to be up front and center to see what Sony reveals for the Playstation. Bloodborne 2? Deep Down? Something else? Share your thoughts in the comments!

Emergence

Editor at Fextralife. I look for the substantial in gaming and I try to connect video games to the emotions and stories they elicit. I love all things culture and history and have an odd fondness for the planet Jupiter. I think my dogs are pretty awesome too.

I will say, having been to Sony’s E3 conference in person, it is quite the visual spectacle and is a pretty singular moment for the entire conference (no fanboy but they really put MS and Nintendo to shame when it comes to these things) so it makes sense to broadcast it in theaters. Last year they had a live orchestra performing the music for the trailers.

So after a full day of not working at all, they went back live an hour ago. Just now got my pass.

Lol, they went with gofobo this year, and wouldn’t you know it the site isn’t working. Sony fans crashed it?

17 and older only

I would like to take my daughter to this, but she is only 14. Does anyone know if someone under the age of 17 is allowed with a guardian?

Oh, is that so? Okay, that might be worth trying at least once.

The theater experience is free. Actually, you usually walk out ahead of the game. Usually some credit for PSN, beta access to upcoming games and more.

So, people who can’t make it to the densely packed, overpriced, poorly air conditioned, and far too loud E3 itself can still get a similar experience by sitting in a densely packed, overpriced, poorly air conditioned, and far too loud theater closer to home. Cool.

I don’t know whether I should be more surprised this is a thing, or surprised that I’m not all that surprised. Is this done with other things like sports? Is E3 following a trend here, or are they doing some kind of meta commentary about living vicariously through video games that pretend to be movies?

I’ve been there for both and it’s a great experience.
