With E3 being cancelled, companies like Microsoft and Ubisoft will look to be taking all of their supposed announcements through digital events. Warner Bros. Games is one of the companies taking a hit due to the cancellation, seeing as they’ve reportedly been preparing to do an E3 conference for the first time with some important announcements.
In a Tweet from industry vet Jason Schreier, he reports that Batman, Harry Potter, and Rocksteady’s games were among the announcements of that press conference.
More news from me: Warner Bros. Games was planning to do an E3 press conference this year for the first time, to talk about Batman, Harry Potter, and Rocksteady's game among others. Remains to be seen what they'll do now https://t.co/OIry5zgB6p

While there are no specifics as to what those titles could be, there have been previous rumors and leaks that may have shed some light on these projects.
The Batman game could have been the same title WB Games Montreal teased a while back, which points to a Court of Owls story arc among a few other details.
The Harry Potter game is supposedly an RPG title that was previously reported by Eurogamer quite a while back as videos all over Reddit and Youtube (taken down already) showed footage of the game in development.
