Maybe they could if they pushed themselves to the limit over the last 2.5 to 3 years, but that would be at a massive stretch. They struggled to put together all the acts from Unleashed. That would be asking too much from the development team.

If they have 22 Zones (if you could Sonic 3/Sonic and Knuckles as seperate games and include Sonic CD), there would be a whopping 44 acts minimum, plus at least 1 extra act per Sonic per Zone would mean a monumental total of 88 acts. If you have at least 1 extra act per Sonic per zone, that would be 72 acts. If there are extra acts, then this will be one longass Sonic game. And we’re going to cover it like that.If there are 18 Zones with 2 acts a piece then there would be 36 stages at least. This means some people will come away vibrating with hype, and others will end up disappointed.īut while E3 is changing and maybe growing more irrelevant, it is still the center of the gaming universe.
And I think E3 2021 will deliver, as it has in the past. Should you take a week off of E3 to enjoy “Gamer Christmas”? Probably not, but I think it’s weird to call it “Gamer Christmas.” Take a week off to play a game and not to watch commercials.Īt the same time, I also get excited for what’s coming next in games. Microsoft, meanwhile, will focus on Halo and Starfield, and - of course - it will emphasize Xbox Game Pass. Even if Breath of the Wild 2 slips into 2022, the company will likely show it off at this event. Nintendo should start talking about its plans for Zelda through the end of the year.
You may think publishers have a lot ready for this year since they skipped E3 in 2020, but that’s unlikely. For example, they could set up a new trailer for Dragon’s Dogma 2 from Capcom ( which we know should be coming thanks to a 2020 hack), and then the hosts could hold a roundtable with the game’s developers.Īs for what to expect specifically from these companies, it’s probably going to look a lot like normal.

Other companies, like Gearbox and Koch Media, might have their own showcases, but it’s just as likely that they will use the new E3 digital infrastructure to put their games into something like the PC Gaming Show or a solo announcement during the overall E3 livestream.Į3 will have a team of hosts throwing to the major media briefings, but they will also do interviews and introduce things like one-off trailers. And we already know that Ubisoft Forward is airing Saturday, June 12. Xbox will have a media briefing, and so should companies like Square Enix. What will E3 2021 look like?Į3 2021 is going to look and feel a lot like past E3s, but with even more cohesion. By then, we should hear from Ubisoft about Far Cry 6 and from Electronic Arts about the upcoming 2021 Battlefield game. Summer Game Fest, Geoff Keighley’s E3 alternative, kicks off June 10. This should also continue through the days preceding E3. We may also hear from Nintendo soon about the timing for its Direct video event during E3. Microsoft will announce when to expect the Xbox showcase - spoiler, it’s happening Sunday, June 13. This is also the week that we should learn more about what E3 2021 looks like. That same day, Sony will showcase the gameplay reveal of Horizon: Forbidden West during a State of Play. MetaBeat will bring together metaverse thought leaders to give guidance on how metaverse technology will transform the way all industries communicate and do business on October 3-4 in San Francisco, CA.
