Disney’s D23 expo kicks off today (Friday September 9) with fans expecting a wave of Disney, Marvel and Star Wars announcements across the weekend.
Tonight will also see a dedicated Disney and Marvel Game Showcase which will include reveals from Disney & Pixar Games, Marvel Games, Lucasfilm Games and 20th Century Games.
Kicking off at 9pm BST and running for 90 minutes, the livestreamed presentation will be able to watch via the D23 website and across social media platforms like Twitch, YouTube, Twitter and Facebook. Fans can also watch it below.
The showcase will feature the recently-delayed Midnight Suns, the recently-released Disney Dreamlight Valley and a potential expansion for Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga.
Viewers have also been promised a “sneak peak at upcoming Marvel ensemble game from Skydance New Media,” the studio led by Uncharted legend Amy Hennig.
Hennig was confirmed to be working on a “narrative-driven, blockbuster action-adventure game, featuring a completely original story and take on the Marvel Universe,” last October. The following month celebrated comic book writer Marc Bernardin was confirmed to be writing for the project.
