The Simpsons Writers and Producers Coming to E3

The dominant speculation is that a new ‘The Simpsons’ video game will be announced.

The speculations have not been confirmed so now fans will look to the 11th when the writers make their address.

Evidence Points to Possible New Darksiders and Destroy All Humans Announcements at E3

There is a possibility that THQ Nordic will be announcing new Darksiders and Destroy All Humans games at E3 2019. This speculation arose when Gaming Bolt noticed that THQ Nordic’s E3 floor plan included spaces for two unannounced games. One of the games was hinted as a “return of a galactically beloved franchise” and the other a “new vision of a beloved franchise.” Based on the somewhat cryptic descriptions among other subordinating details, it is a fair guess that those are the games in question.

Leak Suggests Fable 4 Announcement at E3

A listing for Fable 4 recently showed up on Mixer which suggests an incoming reveal of the new instalment in the Xbox series. For those who don’t already know, Mixer has an auto-fill feature that lists games steamers can pick from when signalling what they are currently streaming.

Some argue that if the game is to be unveiled as presumed, it will be done at E3 2019.

Thus far the company has 22 confirmed PlayStation 4 games that will be making appearances. Among the lot, are some fan favourites like Apex Legends, Anthem and Battlefield V.

Square Enix has been teasing its E3 2019 press conference on Twitter and the Avengers Project is one chief subject that has been heavily linked.

Fortnite to hold Celebrity Pro-Am, Time Trial Challenges to E3

Industry insider ‘Braldryr’ on NeoGAF says that CD Projekt Red plans to reveal the release date for their highly-anticipated open-world RPG, Cyberpunk 2077, at this year’s E3 — specifically during Microsoft’s press conference. Braldryr is not affiliated with CD Projekt Red though, so take this rumor with a grain of salt. The developers have however hinted before that E3 2019 will be the game’s most important E3. We already know public and closed-door gameplay reveals are happening, so a release date announcement wouldn’t be too farfetched.

The game will also be playable at the expo, so if you’re headed there this June make sure to stop by the Borderlands 3 and 2K booths.

A Difficulty Slider will be Added to Pathologic 2

Pathologic 2 is no doubt a hard game and the developers added a difficulty slider but is suggesting that players should not use it. For Pathologic 2, the game is difficult because it is very hard to figure out and most of the time players do not know what to do. So what the developers thought of doing is to still maintain the game’s weirdness and just smooth out the confusing parts. Pathologic 2 has three parts. The first part Haruspex is already live the two other parts have no release dates yet.

Ubisoft Could be Working on a Subscription-Based Service

Death Stranding Teaser Trailer Shared

A teaser trailer has been released for Death Stranging, the very first game from Hideo Kojima after separating with Konami.
