There have been a few updates over the past three and a half years, although they’ve generally been little more than confirmations that the game is still happening . According to creative director Hideki Kamiya, PlatinumGames has a lot of projects in development at the moment which is why things are taking so long. In January 2021 he suggested that a real update could be forthcoming, but the game was once again absent from
One game is notably missing from this list is Elden Ring . It seems like the general consensus for Elden Ring ‘s E3 presence is so all over the place that it’s hard to say whether or not it will make an appearance. Updates on the game have been few and far between over the last two years, and Bandai Namco already has two upcoming games with release dates to focus on for its showcase: Scarlet Nexus and Tales of Ari
In Fable, the player’s choice of food and drink will affect their character. Many games let you eat 100 sweet rolls or 400 potatoes without any of those silly health ramifications that we find in the real world. In this title, should you consume too many sweets or drink too many beers, your character will often get s
While Sony’s first-party titles were never likely to show up at E3, some of the PlayStation exclusives being developed by third-party studios were in with an outside chance. With Square Enix having already announced all of its upcoming Dragon Quest titles ahead of E3, in fact, some were expecting news on either Final Fantasy XVI or Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 2 at some point during the developer’s E3 presentation just to fill the v
There have been plenty of rumors saying that Elden Ring will be appearing, albeit there have been rumors saying that about nearly every major industry showcase since the game’s 2019 announcement. While just about everyone would love to get a glimpse at it, fans should keep their expectations in check regarding Elden Ring at E3 2021 as well as everything else on this list (below, in no particular ord
When it comes to Star Wars games, there are too many big characters to count. There are so many that it would be difficult not to spoil at least some drops in the trailer. Even just showing a typical enemy in the C++ Game Development will clue fans into the location and possible alignment of the playable charac
Though announcements relating to the Pokemon series tend to take place during their own standalone directs these days, the likelihood of hearing at least some Pokemon related news at E3 2021 remained high. Leading up to the event, the series had failed to miss even a single E3 since 2013 , excluding of course, E3 2020 which was cancelled due to the global pandem
The company set up a website titled “We Know Something You Don’t Know” that featured a countdown to its Primetime Gaming Stream. In the background of said site was a CCTV feed of an office containing a coffin, a mace and a crown; three items with strong links to Kingdom Come: Deliverance . Rather than a sequel however, it’s now clear that the items were instead teasing the upcoming Switch po
But, as with the most recent Far Cry leak , it’s the new content that fans are interested in. In this way, marketing “leaks” can work wonders. It’s just difficult when the marketing of a game alienates part of a fanbase like casual or “patient” gam
This time, instead of a fast-paced reel full of quick cuts, this game had the advantage of having absolutely no lore around it. The bold move of putting so many of the most emotional moments out beforehand disappointed fans when they realized that those moments were the only ones in the g
The last anyone’s seen of the game was a gameplay showcase in 2019, but little word on when the game will be done has come from the studio in quite some time. Ubisoft has plenty of other games already confirmed to be showcased, so, unfortunately, it doesn’t look like there’s much new information about Beyond Good and Evil 2 at E3 2
During Fable II, the player can find a house in Bowerstone Old Town called “The Invisible Hand.” They learn that it’s the base of operations for a group of thieves. However, economically-minded fans might have caught on to the fact that the “invisible hand” is a term used to describe how an economy self-regulates its
Some trailers or marketing campaigns take this a step too far by giving fans too much information. Whether by virtue of the content itself or fans making inferences, it can ruin the surprise. And that’s the ultimate let down: building up all that suspense only to shut it down right before the release. It’s happened in every generation and PS4 is no exception, taking some of its biggest titles and throwing the high point in our fa
As much as Nintendo fans might hope and pray, Metroid Prime 4 will most likely be absent from its 40-minute presentation on Tuesday. Metroid Prime 4 has had development issues that caused the entire project to be rebooted in 2020, so it’s unlikely that the game will be ready to be shown off in its current state. Additionally, Nintendo clarified that its showcase will revolve primarily around games releasing later in 2021, so, despite many studios announcing things releasing over the next few years, Nintendo is focused on the rest of this year. If development is ahead of schedule, Metroid Prime 4 could potentially be showcased at a future Nintendo Direct towards the end of the year, but it probably won’t surface at E3 2
