A new developer, new characters, and a new setting, Gears 4 is looking to take the franchise into the new generation with some fresh ideas, albeit with the same brutality that made the original a hit. Microsoft is likely to show a whole lot more of their flagship IP, with a closer-look at protagonist JD Fenix and his squad, along with the new enemy that plagues the world post-Gears 3.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-17452 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.menstuff.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Gears-of-War-4-Xbox-One.jpg\" alt=\"Gears of War 4 Xbox One\" width=\"620\" height=\"349\" \/><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Battlefield 1<\/h3>\n<p>The reveal of\u00a0Battlefield 1\u00a0caused quite a stir, and with good reason. Ironically, heading back to WW1 seems like a\u00a0breath of fresh air in a market saturated with modern\/futuristic military shooters, and based on the reaction to the announcement trailer, the fans agree.<\/p>\n<p>The new entry into the FPS series should be the focus of EA&#8217;s press conference, with some new gameplay details, environments, and multiplayer information to be announced. We&#8217;re expecting big things from EA this year, and it doesn&#8217;t come bigger than Battlefield.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-17453 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.menstuff.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Battlefield-1.jpg\" alt=\"Battlefield 1\" width=\"620\" height=\"349\" \/><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Watch Dogs 2<\/h3>\n<p>While not officially confirmed, it&#8217;s a borderline certainty that a sequel to Ubisoft&#8217;s hack-&#8217;em-up action game will show up at the developer&#8217;s press conference.\u00a0Watch Dogs\u00a0is set to be a multi-game franchise for the studio, and E3 could be the moment for Ubisoft to show off the highly-anticipated sequel.<\/p>\n<p>Ubisoft Montreal vice president of creative Lionel Raynaud previously said that\u00a0Watch Dogs 2 would deliver on the promises of the first game, but no one knows if Watch Dogs&#8217; original protagonist Aiden Pierce will be returning or a new hero will step into the limelight.<\/p>\n<p>We can be sure that\u00a0there&#8217;ll be more car-chases, hacking, and gunfights to come.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/features\/73761-games-that-no-one-plays-anymore.html\/attachment\/watch-dogs-9#main\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-73775\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-73775 size-large aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Watch-Dogs-640x360.jpg\" alt=\"Watch Dogs\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Watch-Dogs-640x360.jpg 640w, https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Watch-Dogs-230x130.jpg 230w, https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Watch-Dogs.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Dishonored 2<\/h3>\n<p>All we&#8217;ve seen of Dishonored 2 thus far is the gorgeous cinematic debut trailer from last year&#8217;s E3, but that footage &#8211; combined with the stellar pedigree of the first game &#8211; was more than enough to stoke the fires of supernatural assassination hype.<\/p>\n<p>Bethesda have revealed that you&#8217;ll be able to choose between playing as Corvo or his almost-definitely daughter Emily in this slick-looking sequel, and that it takes place in the coastal city of Karnaca rather than the grimy streets of Dunwall. We can&#8217;t wait to see how the distinctly creepy vibes of the original are reimagined for Dishonored 2.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-17451 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.menstuff.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Dishonored-2.jpg\" alt=\"Dishonored 2\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" \/><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Resident Evil 7<\/h3>\n<p>Another game that hasn&#8217;t been confirmed, but is a sure-bet to make an appearance.
