What games will be at E3 2021?
Although several of the biggest companies in the gaming industry are confirmed to appear at E3 2021, we still don’t have a clear idea of what specific games they will be showing off. With Xbox present, it’s likely that we’ll learn more about Halo Infinite as well as what’s next for Bethesda. It’s also a safe bet that Ubisoft will talk more about the recently delayed Far Cry 6.
Nintndo tends to drop its biggest announcements during E3. We could potentially learn about the latest DLC character for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, or the next mainline entry in any of its tentpole franchises. Outside of speculation, most of the participants have kept the specifics of their E3 2021 plans close to the chest.
The E3 mobile app
The E3 2021 app will serve as a main hub for viewers, featuring virtual booths, conferences, and live events. The app will be available for the public on iOS and Android in late May and will keep them connected with all of the latest news out of E3. Users will be able to customize and personalize their profile, earning points and ranking on the in-app leaderboard for engaging with the show. More details on the app can be found on the E3 website.
