Of course, there will be awards to be handed out as is tradition for the namesake of the show. But, there will also be announcements as well as world reveals. One effort that viewers are hoping to see for this year’s event is more focus on the awards with more stage time for recipients and the advertisements/reveals come second.

One anticipated reveal to take place is more information on Mafia: The Old Country. While it is not confirmed, the title was revealed at the recent Keighley showcase in Cologne.
