With the recent COVID-19 pandemic, there have been many events that have been canceled or postponed indefinitely this year. This includes the yearly E3 and many big events that were scheduled for this year. Digital Dragons have managed to plan out a digital festival having partnered with Valve’s Steam, which seems to be the way to go in the current situation.
