E3 2018 is a month away, and there's nothing anyone can do about it. Just lean back, relax, and accept it. Begin your journey down the path of Zen with this E3 tidbit: Sony's E3 2018 showcase goes live on June 11 at 6 p.m. PDT.

"Join us on Monday, June 11 starting at 6:00pm Pacific Time as we share a preview of what's next for PlayStation," states a blog post by SIE Worldwide Studios Shawn Layden that went up earlier today. "We'll broadcast the show live from E3 2018 in Los Angeles, California via live.playstation.com, Twitch, YouTube, and Facebook."

Layden then reveals the names of four major titles we'll see at the show, which is a break from E3's tradition of waiting until showtime to say "Surprise, Surprise!". Look forward to learning more about The Last of Us 2, Ghost of Tsushima, Spider-Man, and Death Stranding.

Oh good, this year's "Make A Meme Out of Death Stranding" contest is about to start.

Warning: E3 is engineered to make sure you understand more about the games slated for a future release, but we can't offer any guarantees you'll come away from Sony's show with any understanding of what Death Stranding is about.

Are you excited about E3? Nervous? Resentful? Inexplicably aroused? However you feel about the event, our Guide to E3 2018 contains everything you need to know about what you can expect to see, and when you can expect to see it.
