Spike's event has been known as the VGA's (Video Game Awards) until this year, where it has been rebranded as VGX. The event has expanded from being focused on the awards and instead will offer more for fans, including presentations from the industries biggest developers and publishers. It will be less Hollywood award style and more like an E3 show, with world premieres.
