The E3 2019 Thread - Microsoft's E3
The best time of the year is here.There's no Sony conference this year but Microsoft is going BIG this year!
On Sunday, Microsoft will head to LA where the company will be hosting their annual E3 keynote. Microsoft will be showing off 14 titles from their own game studios, according to Phil Spencer.
Of that, you can expect titles like Gears of War 5 (codenamed Halifax) will have a strong presence, and we will also see items like new DLC for State of Decay 2, Forza Horizon 4 Expansion 2. Halo Infinite is expected to have trailer and gameplay wile Age of Empires info will be mentioned too. Fable details may also be tossed in as, and it looks like there will be at least 3 new IPs that we haven’t seen previously. Sources at the company are saying that this is among the strongest showings from third-party companies in its E3 history (thanks to Sony non-presence).
We will also hear more about xCloud service. Microsoft has been talking about this service for about a year and at E3, and we should get a new look at the offering.
As Microsoft announced last week, GamePass for the PC will also be talked about in much greater detail and you can expect new game announcements for Game Pass.

Although the company teased Elder Scrolls 6 and all-new intellectual property Starfield during last year's show, it has already confirmed that neither will be part of its 2019 presentation.
Instead, we are sure to see more on Doom Eternal and Wolfenstein: Youngblood.
A sequel to mobile, PC and Xbox One game Fallout Shelter is rumored, considering it has popped up in China already, so we are almost certain to find out more about its global release plans.
There will also be updates on Elder Scrolls Online, Blades and Legends, plus Fallout 76 too.
However, the big the surprise could come from Shinji Mikami who has confirmed his presence, so we should learn more on his next project at the Bethesda showcase.
This year, instead of a traditional keynote, EA is doing individual breakout sessions for each of its main franchises, witch include Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, The Sims 4, Battlefield V , Apex Legends and more.
We will also see the announcements for the next version of the Madden, FIFA, NHL and NBA Live franchises ans It's more than likely we'll hear about some addition to the Titanfall universe. Less likely but still possible are new games from EA’s DICE studio who have yet to announce a project for 2019, as well as projects from PopCap (Plants vs Zombies) and Ghost Games (NFS)
BioWare also showed a teaser trailer for Dragon Age 4 at last year’s The Game Awards, and while it's a long shot, it'd be nice to hear something about its development.
This should be an interesting showcase too, with the confirmation of the first gameplay of Marvel's Avengers and the recently announced new game from People Can Fly, Outriders, and the highly anticipated Final Fantasy 7 Remake, there is already a lot to see.
Dying Light 2 will also be present and should get a release date, and Platinum Games is also expected to reveal more about Babylon's Fall and... is it time for FF XVI?

Ubisoft revealed Ghost Recon Breakpoint in early May, and we now know that Watch Dogs Legion will be here and Roller Champions has already leaked online with a video.
The many rumors of a new Splinter Cell could concretize this year, and with the next generation of hardware on the horizon, the famous "one last thing" could be one of the first next gen title we see. Ubisoft is probably gonna talk about future content for The Division 2 and R6 Siege too.
Beside, a new subscription service has been seen on Uplay recently.
Sadly, Beyond Good and Evil 2 and Skull and Bones are skipping e3 this year.

This year, the PC Gaming Show is sponsored by the Epic Games store. Epic will reveal brand new material for several games, including some exclusives, coming to the EGS. Additional sponsors include E-WIN, Frontier, Paradox Interactive, Perfect World Entertainment, Rebellion, and more. According to PC Gamer Editor-in-Chief Evan Lahti, “This year's livestream will present more announcements and new trailers than any previous PC Gaming Show."
Frontier Developments has recently acquired a "world famous" license that we should hear about and Outer Wilds, Borderlands 3, Control and Bloodlines 2 will probably have their moment too.
Tripwire Interactive also "can't wait to show what the Maneater team has been working on" and Funcom could reveal the second Conan game we know they working on.
This should be an interesting show to watch.

Expect the unexpected, Devolver Digital has developed a reputation for wacky conferences over the years. The show's host often makes jabs at video game industry trends and gaming culture in general with tongue planted firmly in cheek, of course.
Its slate of upcoming games includes My Friend Pedro, Sometimes Always Monsters, The Talos Principle 2, Serious Sam 4: Planet Badass, Metal Wolf Chaos XD, and more. But keep in mind we really have no idea of what to expect.
