Variety is reporting that Disco Elysium is being turned into its own television series. Production company dj2 Entertainment will develop the show, which is based on the game – which will soon be on Switch.

dj2 CEO and founder Dmitri M. Johnson, who was a co-producer on the Sonic the Hedgehog movie, said of the news: “Disco Elysium is a phenomenal property with an expansive world and unlimited potential. The dj2 team is truly thrilled about this extraordinary opportunity to be part of it all.”

As the project is in early development, no writer is attached to the Disco Elysium TV series at the moment. There’s also no word yet on which network or streaming service will be picking it up. dj2 is meeting writers so that it can pitch the property later this year.

Update: We’ve updated this post with the Summer of Gaming Developer Showcases, Nacon Connect, and tentative month for Devolver Digital Direct.

If this was any normal year, we’d be feeling the pre-E3 hype right about now. It’s one of the most exciting time for gaming fans as tons of announcements, news, trailers, and more are shared over the course of a single week.

Now, despite E3 having been cancelled, this summer should still be a pretty good one. A number of events are planned in the weeks and months ahead. Nintendo itself doesn’t have anything concrete lined up currently, but there are still updates to come from other companies.

Here’s a roundup of events we’re highlighting that we feel are most relevant to Switch owners:

Free Comic Day 2020 will close out with the The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess and Splatoon: Squid Kids Comedy Show manga. Here’s an overview from the official website:
