It’s nearly December, which means The Game Awards is right around the corner. Geoff Keighley’s baby, and a cap-off to the year that contains a mix of awards, and plenty of trailers and announcements. It’s also become a period we pair up with other video game showcases, similar ot what happens every June in the Summer Game Fest period, fortunately, without quite as many as June.

Check out the list below for all the video game showcases coming in December. In the comment section, let me know what you hope to see in any of these showcases.
