E3 is almost like an early Christmas for gamers: each year, the Electronic Entertainment Expo dominates the Downtown Los Angeles area, with developers and publishers from around the world all focused on the future of the gaming industry. Everything from the hardware to the games themselves are on display, and E3 2015 will be no different.
While there are bound to be some huge surprises at this year's show, fans already know about a bunch of the games headed to E3 2015. Some made their debut at last year's E3, and others are all but confirmed to debut — either way, even with only a fraction of the full list available, E3 2015 is already looking like one of the biggest shows in quite some time.
That's enough talk — here's everything gamers should expect to see at E3 2015:
Assassin's Creed Victory
Developer: Ubisoft Quebec
Publisher: Ubisoft
Footage of the game may have already leaked online, but expect a proper reveal of Assassin's Creed Victory at one of the big E3 press conferences this year.
Crackdown
Developer: Cloudgine
Publisher: Microsoft
The game only got a short teaser during Microsoft's presser last year, so expect something a bit bigger for Crackdown's E3 2015 showing.
The Division
Developer: Massive Entertainment
Publisher: Ubisoft
Ubisoft has promised that The Division is still coming later this year, and if that's true, expect to see something big at this year's E3.
Doom
Developer: iD
Publisher: Bethesda
Bethesda, the publisher behind Doom, is holding its first-ever E3 press conference this year — expect to finally see some in-game Doom footage.
Fable Legends
Developer: Lionhead Studios
Publisher: Microsoft
Microsoft has touted more than a few of Fable Legends' cross-platform features, so expect the game to make a big impact at both the publisher's presser and show floor booth.
Star Wars Battlefront
Developer: DICE
Publisher: EA
The game's first trailer is set for release in April, so fans should expect to see something big from Star Wars Battlefront at this year's E3 — with any luck, it'll be gameplay.
Star Wars (Visceral Games)
Developer: Visceral Games
Publisher: EA
Next to nothing is known about Visceral Games' (developers of Dead Space) take on the Star Wars universe, but EA is likely to change that at E3 2015.
Titanfall 2
Developer: Respawn Entertainment
Publisher: EA
Respawn Entertainment shocked the world when it announced that Titanfall 2 would be multiplatform, but anything more than a teaser at E3 would be a surprise.
Uncharted 4: A Thief's End
Developer: Naughty Dog
Publisher: Sony
Despite the fact that the game was pushed back to Spring 2016, Uncharted 4: A Thief's End is still one of Sony's biggest games. Get ready for another beautiful gameplay demo at the publisher's presser.
WWE 2K16
Developer: Yuke's
Publisher: 2K Sports
The game hasn't been officially announced yet, but WWE has already confirmed that the next entry in the WWE 2K series will be playable at E3 2015.
Xenoblade Chronicles X
Developer: Monolith Soft
Publisher: Nintendo
It's not every day that Nintendo itself is surprised by a game's success, so expect a big push for Xenoblade Chronicles X at this year's show — is it too much to hope for a playable demo?
Yoshi's Wooly World
Developer: Good-Feel
Publisher: Nintendo
Nintendo hasn't said much about Yoshi's Wooly World, but it's highly likely that the successor to Super Mario World 2 will be playable at the show.
The list of games headed to E3 2015 is already huge, and it's just the tip of the iceberg — expect plenty more to be announced before the show starts, and even more once E3 gets rolling.
E3 2015 begins on June 16, so stay tuned to the T-Lounge for live updates straight from the show floor!
