Summer Game Fest is a major gaming event, second only to The Game Awards, where big game companies usually make important announcements and show off new trailers. This year, though, we don’t know much about who will be there. We do know we’ll see more of Insomniac’s Marvel’s Wolverine during a State of Play presentation, but Summer Game Fest itself is largely a question mark. However, looking at what’s happened in the past and what games people are most excited about, we can make some reasonable predictions. The following list is based on my own expectations and what gamers are hoping for, not on any inside information or leaks. Here are 6 game reveals and trailers I’d love to see at Summer Game Fest 2026, starting with the least likely and moving towards the most probable.

I’m really excited to see what happens when the worlds of Detective Conan and Detective Precure collide! It’s a special crossover event that will unfold across both shows. It all kicks off on May 31st with an episode of Detective Precure called “The Detectives Assemble.” What’s interesting is that while both series feature detectives, the Precure girls have superpowers – something you don’t typically see in the more grounded world of Conan. Here’s how Precure is setting up the beginning of this crossover…

I’m really bummed to see The Boroughs isn’t getting the attention it deserves. The idea behind the show is so fresh – it’s about the residents of a peaceful retirement community who suddenly have to become heroes! They’re facing these strange, otherworldly threats that are trying to steal their time, and they have to step up and fight back. Plus, the cast is amazing! Seeing Alfred Molina, Geena Davis, Alfre Woodard, and Bill Pullman all together is fantastic – everyone delivers such strong performances.

It’s unfair to ignore these characters. They’ve earned a dedicated fanbase and deserve another opportunity to shine within the Marvel Universe. These ten heroes are long overdue for a triumphant return to prominence.

Even though Gojo hasn’t been actively involved in the current third season of Jujutsu Kaisen, he’s still widely considered the most powerful character in the series and remains incredibly popular with fans. Netflix Brazil recently took their appreciation to a new level, going viral after playfully confessing their love for Gojo and even pretending to date him. It’s a fun and endearing display of fandom!

Often considered the most serious film in the X-Men series, Logan follows the aging Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) as he tries to live a quiet life on the Mexican border, caring for the sick Professor X (Patrick Stewart). He wants to be left alone, but his plans are disrupted when he encounters a young mutant girl (Dafne Keen) who mirrors his own troubled past. He’s then forced to protect her from those who want to exploit her abilities.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is great at creating popular heroes, but fans generally agree its villains haven’t been as strong. While characters like Thanos, Loki, and the High Evolutionary have been memorable successes, Marvel often simplifies complex villains from the comics or kills them off quickly. This turns potentially epic adversaries into one-time obstacles, wasting years of established backstory and interesting character development.

Okay, so KPop Demon Hunters was really killing it, especially on Netflix. But then this animated movie, Swapped, came out on May 1st, 2026, and for a little while, it actually looked like it might challenge KPop Demon Hunters‘ dominance. Honestly, though, the buzz around Swapped died down pretty quickly, and it became clear that KPop Demon Hunters is just untouchable. It’s still the king, as far as I’m concerned.

After the episode aired, Jabba the Hutt’s relative, Rotta, told Din Djarin he was “his own man.” That simple line quickly became a popular meme online.

I recently shared the most popular Pokémon from each generation, according to fan votes. But I was curious about the opposite – which Pokémon have the smallest, most dedicated fan bases? So, I looked at data from a website tracking everyone’s favorite Pokémon to find the least popular one from each generation. If your favorite is on this list, you’re part of a rare group of fans!
