What you need to know
- E3 2020 is still on for June according to the organizers.
- They're monitoring the coronavirus outbreak so you never know.
- The creative directors also resigned.
- It's unclear why the team resigned or who will take over.
The team said, "It's with mixed emotions... to resign as creative directors of what was to be an evolutionary E3 2020 floor experience. We've produced hundreds of gaming and community events and it was a dream to be involved with E3." Hopefully, the reasons behind their departure will be explained.

We’ve produced hundreds of gaming + community events and it was a dream to be involved with E3. We wish the organizers the best of luck.It’s with mixed emotions that @iam8bit has decided to resign as Creative Directors of what was to be an evolutionary #E32020 floor experience.

No matter what caused the creative team to resign, it isn't a good look for E3. As reported by Kotaku, the show has been trying to stay relevant in recent years and this just adds to the impression that E3 isn't relevant anymore.
Microsoft will still be there, but if the coronavirus outbreak isn't contained, that may not happen.
