May 2019 - June 2019

E3 2019 (Electronics Entertainment Expo) is upon us. The world’s largest and most exciting gaming event of the year will take place in LA from June 11th through 13th, but we are expecting the major reveals to kick-off on June 7th. While Sony has bowed out of the competition this year, we expect presentations from Microsoft, Nintendo, Bethesda, EA, Square Enix and more to make up for it just fine. While rumors are swirling regarding Microsoft’s next generation console and recent cloud gaming initiatives, as usual E3 2019 is all about the games. Just a few of the titles we expect to see at the show include Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, the Final Fantasy VII Remake, Gears 5, Halo Infinite, Beyond Good and Evil 2, Skull and Bones and many more. Stay locked to 9to5Toys all month for all the biggest reveals, gameplay footage and news out of E3 2019.
