Part 3: E3 2019 Games And Expansions – TBA Release Dates
The following PC games were announced during E3 2019. However, no actual release dates or timetables were provided.
Age of Empires: Definitive Edition (Forgotten Empires/Tantalus/Xbox Game Studios)
Although Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition will release later this year, the first game’s remastered version does not have an official release date yet.
Baldur’s Gate 3 (Larian Studios)
The granddaddy of CRPGs and the kickstarter of everything that needed to get kicked has finally returned. Baldur’s Gate 3 is in development, but the release date has yet to be announced, but it’s gotten everyone excited at E3 2019. Helmed by Larian Studios, the folks behind the Divinity games, you know it’s going to be filled to the brim with RPG goodness.
Blasphemous (The Game Kitchen)
Action, platforming, boss battles, and gory executions — everything you might be looking for in the “Metroidvania” genre.
Bleeding Edge (Ninja Theory)
Fast-paced, fluid, and stylistic action. No, it’s not Devil May Cry, although DmC’s combat director Rahmi Tucker is part of the team. It’s Bleeding Edge, an upcoming 4v4 battler from Ninja Theory.
Deathloop (Arkane Studios)
Are you a master of time, or a master of none? Deathloop emphasizes the combat we’ve come to expect from the creators of the Dishonored series. Judging by the reveal, it looks like something janky is going on with time itself, and we seem to be stuck in a time loop.
El Hijo (Honig Studios)
A non-violent stealth game with spaghetti-western themes.
Elden Ring (FromSoftware)
We’ve only seen bits and pieces here and there, but we do know two things:
- It’s made by the people behind Dark Souls, Bloodborne, and Sekiro.
- It’s a collaboration with none other than Game of Thrones author George R. R. Martin.
Are there other things, besides Keanu at E3 2019, that will make everyone release a collective gamer nerdgasm? Probably not.
Genesis Noir (Feral Cat Den)
The game’s Steam description would do it justice:
A noir adventure set before, during and after the Big Bang. Explore black holes, primordial Earth, and jazz cafes. Witness the birth and history of mankind. Find comfort in a glass of gin. Search for a way to destroy creation.
GhostWire: Tokyo (Tango Gameworks)
From the mind of Shinji Mikami — director of Resident Evil, Dino Crisis, and The Evil Within — and Tango Gameworks, comes GhostWire: Tokyo. The city’s residents are disappearing, and it’s up to you to uncover the mystery. Yet, instead of zombies and mutated monstrosities, you’ll have to deal with the supernatural beings and horrifying creatures from Japanese folklore.
Midnight Ghost Hunt (Vaulted Sky Games)
There’s a bit of spooky fun going on. Midnight Ghost Hunt will be a 4v4 prop-hunting game where spirits control said props, and ghost hunters try to find them. The roles are reversed once the clock strikes midnight.
Romancing SaGa 3 (Square Enix)
SaGa Scarlet Grace: Ambitions (Square Enix)
Both of these titles have yet to get official Western releases on PCs until now. Romancing SaGa 3 originally came out for the SNES decades ago, whereas Ambitions was a PS Vita title. There are no official store pages as of yet.
SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom – Rehydrated (Purple Lamp Studios)
Originally released for consoles back in 2003 — and there was even a PC port some time later – SpongeBob will return in a remastered adventure.
Twelve Minutes (Luis Antonio/Annapurna Interactive)
A romantic evening with your wife turns into a disaster when police break into your home and beat you to death. And then, you wake up, twelve minutes before your impending doom. You relive the moment over and over, stuck in a time loop, unless you can figure out a way to solve the mystery.
Unto the End (2 Ton Studios)
A father must reunite with his family, but he’ll encounter dangerous creatures along the way.
