Now let’s see what Rectify Call of Duty Manager, Chris ‘VENGNC3’ Kinghan has for his predictions for E3.

“Call of Duty still wont provide its fans with what they want/need”

Here is a prediction from long time Rectify Streamer, KoalaGaming:

Xbox: New hardware besides the new Xbox, Halo infinite beta and release date, 6 new IP’s, a ton of indie games

Ubisoft: Rainbow Six Siege road map for the next year, new AC reveal

Nintendo: Animal Crossing for Switch, new characters for Smash, New IP, New Mario game

Bethesda: More Elder scrolls 6 news, No Todd Howard, trying to revive Fallout 76

Here are my (Tyler Nienburg) predictions for this coming E3 2019. Please keep in mind like I said above to take these with a grain of salt because we might be going out on a limb.

Xbox E3 Briefing

More Gears 5 gameplay shown at the start of the conference with Rod Ferguson coming on stage to share the release date and maybe revealing limited editions for the game or that’ll be revealed after the conference.

Halo Infinite brief campaign tease and multiplayer gameplay possibly. We will get a better idea of when the next Halo will launch whether that’s 2020 or 2021. I’ll give a slim chance that we could see a Halo Battle Royale. Halo: Reach on MCC release date.

Since we will be seeing a couple new IP’s from Xbox Game Studios one of them will be a tease of The Initiative’s new game. Nothing big just a very small tease.

Fable 4 could be revealed in the middle or toward the end of the conference.

We will probably see something Forza whether it’s Motorsport or Horizon. You can’t go wrong when predicting Forza at an Xbox Conference.

A big wildcard prediction would be to see a Nintendo representative maybe Doug Bowser come on stage with Phil Spencer to reveal a couple Xbox games coming to the Switch which would be Ori & The Will of The Wisps, Gears Pop or Tactics, Rare Replay and maybe Halo: MCC as it has been heavily rumored. With Cuphead coming to the Switch anything is possible with the Xbox & Nintendo partnership and it would not be shocking. This would be near the area they talk about Xcloud if they were to do this.

The chances of a Battle Royale being shown on the Xbox stage this year is very likely and who knows it could be a new one by Xbox Game Studios.

One last thing, more Borderlands 3 shown and Splinter Cell possibly.

Ubisoft E3 Conference

Watch Dogs Legion gameplay and release date.

We will see a focus on esports at some point in the conference especially with leaked title Roller Champions.

Splinter Cell.

Just Dance 2020.

For some reason we will probably see Miyamoto for another Ubisoft x Nintendo collaboration.

It’s hard to see what else could be at Ubisoft’s conference but there will for sure be some new surprises.

Nintendo E3 

Animal Crossing gameplay & release date toward the end of the direct.

We will see up to 2 new characters announced for Super Smash Bros. one being from Microsoft.

Metroid Prime Trilogy for Switch.

Finally, here are Wifiplayer13’s predictions for the big show.

Nintendo

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate 4.0 detailed, 2 new fighters revealed over the course of E3. I feel that the Erdrick (Dragon Quest) rumors are real, and Banjo-Kazooie would be a fun Microsoft x Nintendo collab. If Banjo happens, his reveal trailer will incorporate Donkey Kong + Diddy Kong as a reunion. I’ll go a step further and predict that all players will get Home-Run Contest as a free download as well as a new Echo fighter or stage.

Animal Crossing trailer showcasing new features, 8 player online multiplayer, and some sort of 2 player split-screen functionality.

Retro Studios unveils a new IP.

Metroid Prime Trilogy HD will also be one of Retro’s projects that they have been working on the past few years.

Luigi’s Mansion 3 trailer + release date.

Mario Maker 2 will get another style shown off, possibly at tomorrow’s E3 Invitational.

Pokémon Sword/Shield console bundle announce, as well as the second evolution forms of the starters.

Persona 5 Scramble US localization details, ending with a teaser that Persona 5 Royal will also be coming to Switch sometime in 2020.

Shin Megami Tensei V teaser, still no release date.

Pikmin 3 port, Pikmin 4 teaser.

Link’s Awakening release date.

Cadence of Hyrule shadow drop.

Bayonetta 3 release date and gameplay first look.

Witcher 3 Miracle Port

SNES games added to Nintendo Switch Online, along with a rotating N64 game each month.

Xbox

Halo Infinite campaign gameplay showcasing a new faction of enemies under control by Cortana. Multiplayer teaser and beta announcement.

Halo MCC PC details, Halo: Reach testing begins immediately after conference.

Gears 5 release date.

Gears Tactics + POP release dates.

Banjo-Kazooie Remake, I feel like this could coincide with a hypothetical Nintendo segment on stage. I would also envision a showcase of XCloud on a variety of devices including Switch.

More Microsoft titles announced for Switch (although this may happen in Nintendo’s Direct).

Ori release date.

Fable 4 announced for current + next gen.

Battletoads gameplay + release date.

Borderlands 3 gameplay.

Next-gen Forza teaser.

Close the show off with first details on the next Xbox as well as a few new studio acquisitions.

Ubisoft

Watch Dogs Legion gameplay demo. Big Ben is going to be featured in this in some way.

Mario + Rabbids 2 and another Nintendo x Ubi collab. Miyamoto on stage is almost expected at this point.

Just Dance 2020 announced with a dance segment on stage.

Splinter Cell teaser closes the show.

Square Enix

Kingdom Hearts 3 DLC shown off with a new world.

Final Fantasy 7 Remake release date.

Life is Strange Switch ports.

Avengers Project teaser.

Octopath Traveler 2 or Bravely Default Switch.

And that’s it! As we’ve said, these are all for fun and are in no way indicative of what will actually be shown. We all love a good surprise at E3 and we can’t wait to see what’s in store for us during the most exciting week of the year!
