When: Sunday, June 12 at 1 p.m. PT / 4 p.m. ET.

Battlefield 1

We had the new Battlefield announced on May 6th 2016 which is set in World War 1. It’s a very safe bet that full game play and modes will be revealed at EA’s E3 show and likely will be playable at their event.

Mass Effect: Andromeda

We recently learned that Mass Effect Andromeda was delayed till early 2017 (likely March) but I’m sure we will receive game play & some story details at EA’s show. With Mass Effect 3 having an MP im sure Andromeda will have one as well but I’m not going to say there is going to be a Beta or not.

Titan Fall 2

We’ve heard via investor reports & earning calls that Titan Fall 2 will be sometime in FY2016 and with Battlefield 1 having an October release its up in the air on when we shall see this game release I’m guessing it will likely be march 2017 (still FY2016) it will no longer be a Xbox Exclusive but I see Xbox still getting DLC first.

Visceral’s Star Wars

Im 99% sure we will not be receiving any star wars game this year but I expect we will get some sort of teaser trailer as to what Amy Hennig & Visceral Games has been working on.

When: Sunday, June 12 at 7 p.m. PT / 10 p.m. ET.

Dishonored 2

Dishonored 2 was announced last year at Bethesda’s 2015 E3 show. We have already gotten a release date & some details recently via Game Informer but i expect a big blow out of info at the show.

The Evil Within 2

We haven’t really heard too much about The Evil within after the DLC released but after the game did well critically and as far as I know sold well I’m 99% sure a sequel is happening and the time is now to announce it.

Wolfenstein 2

Wolfenstein very much surprised everyone with The New Order as well as its small entry Old Blood along with The Evil Within I expect the time is now for an announcement of Wolfenstein 2

Prey 2

This troubled title was officially canceled a couple years ago but there has recently been some murmurs that it may be back in production for Xb1/PS4 & PC. Personally I hope this to be true as I was very much looking forward to this title on PS3 some years back. I would love a remaster of Prey 1 to release as well.

When: Monday, June 13 at 9:30 a.m. PT / 12:30 p.m. ET.

ReCore

We haven’t heard about this game almost at all since E3 2015 but i expect we get a new trailer, actual game play and some story this year. Maybe even a full release date.

Halo Wars 2

Game play of Halo Wars 2 game play & release date announced. PC version as well?

Forza Horizon 3

The semi annualized franchise of Forza Horizon will be announced game play shown & release date.

Scale bound

As Scalebound got Delayed out of 2016 as soon as we got into 2016 I’m sure we will get an update on the game some new game play and possibly a PC version as well?

Dead Rising 4

Dead Rising 3 was an Xbox One launch title its been a couple years now I’m expecting an announcement of the next Dead Rising at this show to be released next year.

When: Monday, June 13 at 1 p.m. PT / 4 p.m. ET.

For Honor

For Honor was announced last year at Ubisoft’s E3 Conference. I am expecting we get details on the SP story, MP details as well as an October Release date.

South Park: Fractured But Whole

Another title that was announced last year I expect story & game play details and likely a early 2017 release date.

Watch Dogs 2

We know this will be being announced as it has shown up on Ubisoft’s Earning calls/fiscal reports will release this fall. & as of this writing there has been a teaser uploaded by Ubisoft.

Ghost Recon: Wild Lands

I expect this title to be another early 2017 title as it was announced last year but until recently no other details really given. a Recent Trailer has been released but I figure we get game play details maybe some story stuff and release window/date.

New AAA IP

This is the huge mystery that no one really has any idea what it may be. Ubisoft has talked about it in their reports but we have no idea what it may be. They are calling it AAA title but we know Watch Dogs 2 will be their fall flagship so I expect a smaller style title like Trials or Track Mania.

When: Monday, June 13 at 6 p.m. PT / 9 p.m. ET.

Crash Bandicoot

Sony has been teasing Crash on many different fronts starting at PSX 2015 with the T-Shirt then some of the PlayStation Social media handles have teased newer pics of Crash Along with Uncharted 4 having 2 segments with the original Crash game in the game. Now while I personally think people are reading too much into that I felt I would still include it in this prediction.

Sony Bend’s new IP

Sony Bend has been very quiet and we all expected to hear about what they were doing at PSX 2015. Recently there has been some rumors of what this new IP is called n what it might be based on. The name being Dead Don’t Ride and that it is an open world survival game.

Final Fantasy 7 Remake

We recently got an update that the Final Fantasy 7 Remake will not release in FY2016 & that the game will be Multi-part Final Fantasy 13 style and not episodic as they are adding much more to the game and possibly adding Crisis Core Story and Advent Children’s story to the game. Anyways we will likely get game play and another trailer.

God of War 4

We had a recent leak of concept art that claimed to be related to God of War 4. while it was never confirmed i still expect this to be announced at E3 likely  a full game play trailer similar to Horizon Last Year.

KNACK 2

Knack didn’t do very well critically and for most part players didn’t enjoy it very much either However the game has sold well and still to this day occasionally charts on the PSN Sales charts. We recently had alil leak that knack 2 was in development as it was listed on a developers LinkedIn as doing CGI work on it. I personally enjoyed Knack despite its faults and believe the game deserves a sequel.

Red Dead 3

Red Dead 3 has long been desired & we’ve been getting hints here & there that its been in development for at least a few years now so I’m expecting it to be at Xbox’s Show likely with Xbox Marketing rights & maybe exclusive or early DLC.  releasing in 2017.

Resident Evil 7 (Reboot)

Capcom has spoken a few times on how Resident Evil 7 was in development and going back to its Survival Horror Roots. more recently there’s been talk about it being a full reboot of the series this makes sense as they’ve been re-releasing all the previous titles as remasters on current gen consoles. As Resident Evil has always had a close relationship with PlayStation I expect it to be on PlayStation’s stage with PlayStation having the Marketing rights maybe some exclusive or Early DLC.

Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor 2

Shadow of Mordor released in 2014 and was widely popular both critically and among gamers. there were murmurs recently about a sequel happening so I expect this to announced somewhere don’t think it will be on a stage anywhere but I’m not ruling it out either. possibly even a fall release.

Injustice Gods Among Us 2

Recently this hit the interwebs that a sequel is happening likely will be announced via a Press release not on any particular Stage.
