2020 has been quite the year. I’ve been doing this “Music of E3” thing for six, maybe seven years now, and nothing has prepared me for a year like this one. With E3 going all virtual in 2020, it felt like there were more showcases and trailers than ever before! Not only that, but it was hard to figure out where to draw a line on “E3.” The Electronic Entertainment Expo seamlessly bled into Gamescom which then became PAX Online and Tokyo Game Show and in a couple of months, we have The Game Awards! It’s truly a nonstop year of gaming, and with it comes a lot <\/em>of great music!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So here we are again, as the Jonas Brothers once said, going over the best music of… let’s say the first months of summer. This list covers the big virtual showcases of the major consoles, as well as some straggler trailers that were released shortly after. There were even more than 10 songs I loved throughout all these videos, but finding them was much harder than I’d imagined. Certain games like Of Bird and Cage and Figment: Creed Valley offered new songs written for their respective games (that I couldn’t find online), and others like Balan Wonderland and Deleveled included some awesome background music that wasn’t even credited as real music (also unfindable). So we were left with what you see before you: some of the best songs of this bizarro E3 2020. I hope they hook you in as they did to me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
