E3 has officially started, and we’ve seen a lot of trailers from various game developers and publishers. Today, June 10, 2019, we’re giving a quick round-up of the game trailers and teasers that got us pumped.
TODAY’S WINNERS
Cyberpunk 2077
Topping our list is the action-packed role-playing game from the makers of The Witch series. There’s a lot of things to talk about this game, and we love how CD Projekt Red is presenting this as a Triple A game from story, graphics and gameplay. Yes, Keannu Reeves is also in the game; and that’s another reason for people to buy this.
Platform(s):
- Microsoft Windows
- PlayStation 4
- Xbox One
Release: April 16, 2020
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order
The second game that got us really excited is Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order.
The new action adventure game tells a story about of a surviving Padawan after the events of the Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith. While its story is connected to one of the episodes of the epic series, this game tells a brand new star wars story that talks about the Jedi’s quest to complete his training before the Inquisitors discover the plan to rebuild the Jedi Order.
Platform(s):
- Microsoft Windows
- PlayStation 4
- Xbox One
Release: November 15, 2019
Elden Ring
Imagine a game that’s developed by the people behind Sekiro and Souls series; and combine this with the creative minds of Hidetaka Miyazaki and George R.R. Martin. This is exactly what FromSoftware announced today at E3 2019 press conference.
The trailer of the new game called Elden Rings did not say much about its details. It, however, gave a sense of fusion of the minds of Miyazaki and Martin, which I believe is an amazing thing. I just cannot wait to see and get a hands-on experience of this game either a Tokyo Game Show 2019 or GameStart 2019 in Singapore.

GhostWire: Tokyo
The developers behind The Evil Within is working on a new IP called Ghostwire: Tokyo. If I were to assume, Tokyo is the first location of the series, and the story has something to do with the sudden dissolution or disappearance of people in the city.
For someone who visited Tokyo several times for personal and official reasons, I am very excited to play this game. It would definitely be cool if this is an open-world game, which allows gamers to explore an exact 1:1 scale of Tokyo City. Okay, that may be too much; but that would definitely look impressive and immersive, to say the least.

Halo Infinite
We’ve seen a teaser of this last year, but Microsoft did not let this year pass without us seeing a better look at Master Chief in their latest trailer of Halo Infinite.
As the Halo’s spiritual reboot, the developers of the new game seems to be pouring a lot of effort and heart to make this game the best one to launch alongside Microsoft’s latest hardware, “Project Scarlett”. They have detailed their development plan, route and milestones in this post, and I cannot be more than excited for them.
Platform(s):
- Microsoft Windows
- Project Scarlett,
- Xbox One
Release: 2020
Minecraft Dungeons
Oh, look at that – a brand new Minecraft game! Minecraft Dungeons is a dungeon crawler-type game, which has heavy emphasis on story, looting, character progression and cooperative gameplay. The gameplay is very close to Diablo, and it might be something that gamers of such genre would try and jump in to play this game.
Platform(s):
- Microsoft Windows
- Xbox One
- Nintendo Switch
- Playstation 4
Release: Spring 2020
Games that are….uhhmm… Okay!
Gears 5
This one’s just okay. This may be a relative thing, so if you’re a huge Gears of War fan, please don’t hate us.
Kait Diaz the character in focus in this latest installment of Gears 5. Iconic characters from previous games like JD Fenix, Delmont Walker and Marcus Fenix are returning to this latest sequel, and they are going to play pivotal roles in Kait’s search for the story of Locust and her family.
There are, however, a couple of cool things that they announced alongside Gears 5. We’ve seen Gears POP, Gears Tactics and a crossover special that allows players to control Sarah Conor or a T-800 Terminal Model as preorder bonus.
It wouldn’t be too long for the game to be available as it releases this September 10, 2019.

Wasteland 3
Party-based roleplaying game, Wasteland, is back with a brand new game set in post-apocalyptic Colorado. Wasteland 3 is a direct sequel to 2014’s Wasteland 2. It features single or multiplayer modes, and it might just be the only thing that Wasteland fans have been waiting for.
