I am excited for Monster Hunter World: Iceborn from Capcom for PS4 because it is my favourite title since I was a child. There are new movements for every weapon and Tigrex and Nargacuga are finally on the Monster Hunter World!!! I cannot wait to play it!!!
I am most excited about the new Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order game. I’ve been a Star Wars fan all my life & this game is going to one I would enjoy for hours!
Keanu Reeves and dystopian open-world Cyberpunk 2077 for xbox. My kind of game, can’t wait!
I am really excited about Pokemon Sword and shield!! I can’t wait to go on another adventure
The Final fantasy 7 remake by Square Enix announcement is what got me excited! I loved the original version when it came out over 20 years ago, brings back good memories.
Cyberpunk 2077 trailer as presented by Microsoft looked amazing and I’m most excited for this new IP (at least in video game format). The Keanu reveal came out of nowhere and was awesome. Can’t wait!
Baldur’s Gate 3 from Larian Studios!
Played BG: 1&2 exhaustively as a teenager, they heavily influenced the PC games I choose to play today, generally similarly story-driven fantasy themed properties.
Can’t wait for this one!
Even though it’s already been shown in previous events, I’m extremely hyped for “DOOM Eternal”. DOOM (2016) is one of the best games I’ve ever played and I can’t wait for the next installment, with what was shown in the Bethesda’s Press Event yesterday my hype is through the roof!
Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled game coming out for the Nintendo Switch console annonced on Nintendolife.com . I used to love this game on the PlayStation 1 so it should be fun on the Switch!
I’m definitely excited for Tales of Arise which was announced at Xbox’s E3 press conference. I’ve currently played majority of the tales games and I’m excited to see the upgraded graphic on it.
Cyberpunk 2077! The realism and open world concept seems like an amazing immersive experience!
Excited for the new PS5
The most exciting news so far is CD Projekt Redās reveal about their upcoming game Cyberpunk 2077. If the game is anywhere near as good at the Witcher series, gamers are in for a treat!
Doom Eternal.. Why because Doom was my childhood. Loved every Doom game that has been released and I’m excited for the next one.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare developed by Infinity Ward (published by Activision) has me the most excited. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (PS3) was my first Call of Duty game. I have put in endless hours online in the series and have really enjoyed the Modern Warfare Trilogy’s campaign mode and it’s characters. I was a bit disappointed that the previous Call of Duty did not have a Campaign mode but I am glad it has returned!
I am really looking forward to Nintendo’s Pokemon Sword/Shield Ver. had always been looking forward to see the next generation Pokemon Game on Nintendo Switch and it’s finally coming, what makes it the best is the new PokeBank that will allow you to transfer all you pokemon from over the years and from Pokemon Go and Let’s Go into this whole new world.
Nintendo Mario! Love.
Even if it’s already been announced and shown in previous events, I’m extremely hyped about “DOOM Eternal” and the new gameplay segments we’ve seen during Bethesda’s Press Event, also we finally have a release date so now my hype is through the roof. DOOM (2016) was one of the best games I’ve ever played and I still regularly listen to it’s soundtrack to this day (mad props to Mick Gordon for this). RIP AND TEAR!
I am most excited for CD Projekt Redās Cyberpunk 2077. Microsofts’s reveal with Keanu Reeves was awesome. Looking forward to the insane amount of customization in this RPG.
The Microsoft announcement of Cyberpunk 2077 is the game that I’m most excited for. I love non-linear rpg games. Can’t wait to play it next year!
I am most excited for UBISOFT’S TOM CLANCY GHOST RECON BREAKPOINT it was announced by ubisoft it will be releasing on oct 4th i love ghost recon and cant wait to play this title! Goodjob ubisoft
D E A T H S T R A N D I N G
It’s been a long time since I’ve been so confused, intrigued and terrified by a game, yet so ready to support the people behind it. The redemption story of the game’s studio is just as interesting as the game’s mysterious storyline I can’t wait to play through.
(It might not be an E3 announcement, but each video we get is more perplexingly pulse-pounding than the last; feeling like a mini-announcement each time)
The Microsoft announcement of Ori and the Will of the Wisps for Xbox One is the game I’m waiting for. I absolutely loved the first game. It was so beautiful and well made, I can’t wait for the sequel.
I’m excited for the release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare on October 25. PlayStation made this announcement on May 30, and it is exciting as I’m an avid COD player. Also, the new releases so far have been around October, which is the same time as my birthday, so I treat it like an extra birthday present.
Final Fantasy 7–It’ll bring me back to my childhood, when things we were young and carefree
More info and the release date on cyberpunk 2077!
Cyberpunk 2077, I played the Witcher lots of times and loved it and this game looks pretty cool gl all
I am excited for the new Wolfenstein: Young blood by Bethesda, I have played almost every game from this series so far, and I’m looking forward to playing Young Blood.
Cyberpunk 2077, I loved the Witcher series and love Shadowrun. This game seems like a combination of both without the magic.
I’m still waiting for my Animal Crossing announcement… š However, I am also excited for Mario Maker 2 for the Nintendo Switch since I will be buying one soon in anticipation for Animal Crossing. I’ll need a fun game to help with the waiting.
Looking forward to F1 2019.
Thanks for this opportunity! I am most interested in the Halo Infinite release in 2020 along side the new Xbox. The clip Microsoft showed was very short, however this is generally all they ever show for new halo games. I think they enjoy teasing the audience. The halo series has and always will be my favourite series, and is quite frankly the only reason Iāll continue to buy Xbox consoles.
Iām interested to see what new things will be included in the upcoming Super Mario Maker 2 game for the Nintendo Switch. The first one was pretty neat, hoping for even more features in this one.
I am most excited for Nintendo Package 2 with Mario Kart 8 in it. My kids love to play video games with their dad! This is exciting because we can do this as a family (the kids are way better than me) and they just laugh and have a good time!
Super Mario Maker 2, why it is a great learning game for kids and mine love it
Nintendo Switch (Nintendo Direct) made this announcement This is important me to me because I believe Nintendo makes great family games and is easy to use (just a little expensive)
For this year’s E3, I’m most excited for Nintendo’s Pokemon Sword and Shield. I loved Let’s Go, Eevee!, so I’m eager to see the first full Pokemon game on the Switch platform. I already have my eye on the new water-type starter, Sobble, and I’m stoked to explore the Galar region!
I would so love to play the Nintendo Mario party games for the switch with my kids. They would absolutely have a blast
Keanu Reeves??!?!?
Cyberpunk was the thing I was most excited about, now containing Keanu Reeves and a release date- I couldn’t be more excited
My family is very excited about Sony’s announcement to reveal the PlayStation 5. My children have been saving up to purchase Sony’s newest console.
Nintedo Prize Pack 2 is exciting. I played Legend of Zelda when the first Nintendo came out. Very excited for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (switch)
Anything XBox for sure for my 16-year-old son!
The announcement of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order game by EA because I am the biggest Star Wars fan.
I’m intrigued by the Google Stadia announcement by head Phil Harrison. As my gaming PC reaches senior citizen status I’m interested in whether it might work well to maintain an older and/or lower end PC for my existing game library and stream the occasional demanding AAA title. The tech has to actually work as promised, but a lot of gaming options open up if Google really can get it right.
Nintendo showed a lot of the new Nintendo Switch’s Pokemon game, but I would like to see even more lol.
Definitely looking forward to see more of the Final Fantasy 7 remake and hopefully Final Fantasy XVI
On Sunday, June 9th Microsoft announced at their Media Briefing the release of Bleeding Edge. I am looking forward to this release since this XBOX game will be multi-player and is from the team who created Enslaved.
I am most excited for CD projekt red’s upcoming release of cyberpunk 2077! The announcement during microsofts showcase was amazing! Keanu Reeves looks completely badass and the story is very intriguing. I’m most excited about this announcement because a good RPG has not been released in a few years and for myself RPGs are the pinnacle of gaming! Being able to affect the outcome of your character and the story by the decisions you make is fascinating and I have a feeling that for cyberpunk 2077 the different outcomes will blow me away.
Can’t wait to see the new Playstation 5 !!!
I am most excited for super Mario maker 2 published by Nintendo for the Nintendo switch. I loved playing all of the user created levels in the first game and super excited to play all of them for Mario maker 2. My son started playing the original and I think he will love building levels in the new game.
The release date of Cyberpunk 2077. I love immersive solo RPGs….and Kieanu!
I always look forward to Bethesdaās forum the most. From Doom, Wolfenstein, and especially The Elders Scroll announcements. This year I am looking forward to Doom news the most!
