The gaming world is abuzz with anticipation as Summer Game Fest (SGF) 2025 prepares to kick off on June 6. This year's event promises to be one of the most exciting yet, with over 60 companies confirmed to participate. Among the biggest surprises is Nintendo's return after several years of absence, alongside CD Projekt Red's unexpected appearance.

Nintendo has been notably absent from Summer Game Fest in recent years, opting instead for its standalone Nintendo Direct presentations. However, the gaming giant is making a grand return in 2025, listed as "Nintendo Switch 2" in the official participant roster. This strongly suggests that Nintendo will use the platform to showcase its highly anticipated next-generation console, set to launch just a day before the event on June 5.

Another unexpected participant is CD Projekt Red, the studio behind Cyberpunk 2077 and The Witcher series. While active production on The Witcher 4 only began in late 2024, the game is already generating significant buzz. Fans speculate that CD Projekt Red might unveil a new cinematic trailer at SGF 2025, building on the world premiere teaser shown at The Game Awards 2024.
