No Silent Hill or Splinter Cell, no care

Pfft. You don't know that. Surprises are one of the best parts of E3!!

 

[kyussman]

I was always kind of underwhelmed by most of the E3 shows(Sony had a few good ones),but after last years online events I kind of miss the real shows even if they are a bit shit....not excited for this at all.

 

[Hendrick's]

Make gaming great again @E32021

 

[SantaC]

Keighley did a shit job.

Give me 3 days of megatons again.

Yeah instead he gave us 4 months of nothing

 

[Kagey K]

Oh FFS.

Geoff is going to do it again on top of this digital E3/



Yay for announcements being spread out over way too long of a period again.

Just give me 3 days of madness.

 

[Airbus Jr]

Almost skipped a heart beat when i saw this i thought "and 3 others" are back

Anyway Elden Ring is the one im waiting for..

Some gameplay and release date..and its a great show for me...

 

[Orutisu Furio]

Looks like it will be more of that "Summer Games Fest" style crap that was done in 2020, which was garbage.

 

[Perrott]

Dont expect too much from E3 2021

Game development is taking a hit due to covid 19

Heres some realistic expectation :

Horizon Forbidden West gameplay and release date

Halo Infinite gameplay and release date

Harry Potter gameplay and release date

Some new remaster and gamepass/ psplus game

New 2022 sports game announcement

Elden Ring gameplay and release date

Batlefield 6 gameplay and release date

Posible Breath of The Wild 2 gameplay and release date

Posible 1 or 2 new AAA game announcement from either ps xbox or nintendo

Diablo IV gameplay and release date

And thats it

Lol no, everyone has tons of stuff to show this year:

Capcom:

• Dragon's Dogma 2?
• Pragmata
• One of the leaked Resident Evil spin-offs
• Street Fighter VI

Electronic Arts:

• Battlefield 6
• Dragon Age 4
• EA Sports
• Need for Speed by Criterion
• New AAA IP by EA Motive (teased last year)
• + some indie games by EA Originals

Microsoft:

• Avowed
• Everwild
• Fable
• Forza Motorsport
• Forza Horizon 5? (rumored to come out this fall instead of the new Motorsport)
• Halo Infinite
• Hellblade 2
• New IP by Arkane Austin?
• Perfect Dark
• Project Mara
• Psychonauts 2
• Starfield?
• State of Decay 3

Square Enix:

• Gran Turismo 7
• Horizon: Forbidden West
• Metal Gear Solid Remake by Bluepoint
• New AAA IP by Arrowhead
• Silent Hill by Japan Studio

• Whatever game their new studio in San Diego has been working on

And that's without considering that they could go all-in like in 2016 and announce games that are some years away like Days Gone 2, Guerrilla's multiplayer title, London's first console game in years, Cory Barlog's new IP, Kojima's new game, etc.

Ubisoft:

• Avatar by Massive Entertainment?

Warner Bros. Games:

• Hogwarts Legacy
• Injustice 3? (MK11 was released two years ago)
• New LEGO games
• Suicide Squad

And I'm leaving out many other publishers, big and small, such as Take-Two, SEGA, Bandai Namco, THQ Nordic, Activision, Epic Games, fucking Nintendo and the whole indie scene.

 

[Kimahri]

I really hope do. Last year sucked. The summer of games thing was dreadful. We need a few big shows, not a million of them. This is one of those cases where less is more.

 

[SNPlayen]

Microsoft is finally going to have the biggest event ever! Fallout 76 updates and Elder Scroll Online DLC galore!!

[OmegaSupreme]

It died when the booth babes were booted. Mostly sarcasm. Mostly.

 

[clintar]

Just don't spread this shit all over the year with Keighley. I want a week of streams and hype.

Sounds like 2020

 

[Negotiator101]

So are we likely to get the big boys signing up for this? If one does I think they'll all follow, but is going alone the better option?

 

[SJRB]

Just give me two days of carpetbombing megatons, thank you.

 

[PooBone]

Anything's better than Geoff Keighley's "Summer of Games" dicktease nonsense that went on for months last year. That shit was worse than nothing.

Half life 3 switch exclusive.

Internet explodes in anger and burns down valve. While cursing their Lord Gabe.

 

[SNPlayen]

Delays, brought to you by more delays!

 

[SJRB]

I'm getting angry already!

 

[Mabdia]

Is there Sony, MS and Nintendo with E3 guys?

If not, why do they care?

 

[TintoConCasera]

• Dragon's Dogma 2?

Being this the first one on your list makes clear that you are a man of culture and refined taste.

 

[Nhranaghacon]

Bethesda may very well show off the new exclusive Elder Scrolls alongside it's other games.

 

[prinz_valium]

Nothing can be worse than 2020, so please bring back E3

 

[Allnamestakenlol]

How exciting.

 

[Alienware]

Last year E3 was crap despite the big chance of the next gen consoles. This year with no new console will be even worse.

What do you mean?
There was no E3 in 2020.


Anyway, I'm assuming that the one "big publisher" that won't be attending it's EA that has been doing its own thing for some years now.
Also don't really expect Nintendo or Sony to show up.

But I'd be fine with all the others.

 

[Barakov]

E3 pushes forward with plans for a digital 2021 event | VGC

Game demos and keynotes are part of ESA’s proposal, but it still needs backing of publishers…

[Jboemios]

Last year show us than E3 is superior to any video game event

 

[MrS]

E3 is shite. Sooner it dies the better. Sony won't be there so who gives a fuck.
