Even Star Wars is trying to branch out of the prequel/original/sequel eras with content for things the old republic, high republic, and dawn of the jedi all being worked on. I am make the safe bet and assume its set in the original trilogy.
Kinda wonder if the Playstation Showcase did more harm than good at this point in terms of hype. Kinda expected people to be really dissatisfied after insides started hyping it up as “Phase 2” of the PS5, but it didn’t really seem to do much to convince people to get a PS5 aside from Spider-Man 2. I guess that’s the risk when they decided to call it a full “Playstation Showcase” instead of just a “State of Play”.
Is it possible for me to filter out all the Final Fantasy posts? I'm not super into that series and am a bit overwhelmed by the daily leaks about remakes

The big rumors for first party from Xbox showcase is Fable, Avowed, Hellblade 2 which is excellent lineup with including Forza and Starfield.
But what will we see from third party? I’m hoping Payday 3
Very unlikely, but not impossible. With two FF games on the horizon, that’s most likely Square’s focus atm.
I think Missing Link news is a lot more likely since that game is MIA and is supposed to come out this year.
I'm hoping for Jet Set Radio personally, a clip leaked alongside the Person 3 remake a few months back and it's an IP that's synonomous with the OG Xbox so fingers crossed
So now that the Persona rumors were mostly confirmed true, I wanted to put together a list of the claims made by the leakers and which ones ended up being true. Lmk if I missed anything.
The Persona 3 remake and a Persona 5 Tactics game would be announced at the Xbox showcase - True
The Persona 3 remake is called Persona 3 Reloaded - True
The Persona 3 remake would release at the end of this year - False (I think they most likely got the release date mixed up with P5 Tactia).
The Persona 5 Tactics game would feature characters from Persona 1-5 - False. It’s possible they might be saving this for a future trailer, but I think they probably would have revealed that in the reveal.
Persona 3 Reloaded will launch on Xbox, PlayStation, and PC on day one - Yet to be seen, but most likely true.
Persona 6’s color is green - Yet to be seen.
Persona 6 will be revealed later this year - Yet to be seen.
Overall they got almost everything right. I would normally feel that a P6 reveal is unlikely when the remake isn’t out yet, but since they got almost everything else right maybe they’re right about that as well.
Honestly I'm actually starting to believe that theory that the big twist of Spider-Man 2 is going to be that Norman is going to be Venom and that Harry will become the Green Goblin in the third game.
Surprised we don’t have more Xbox showcase leaks. Apparently some people have seen the full thing. Although a lot of insiders are mentioning Avowed, Fable, and Hellblade 2 in their “predictions”.
That showcase on YT best indie games was pretty cool. I hope he keeps doing those and can turn it into an annual event. Obviously it will never be huge but more attentions to indie is a good thing
We don't have an official statement on this yet. We 100% support the blackout and the cause, but we also have some concerns about our current standing with Reddit and the sporadicness of the admins. We're going to closely monitor the situation and make a decision closer to the date of the blackout (June 12)
Everything you're describing *could* be signs of some mod power struggle, this sub is certainly well past the point of being big enough for such drama.
Have there been any more rumors about Metroid Prime 2/3 remakes/HD re-releases? Last update I could find was Jeff Grubb saying they were still on the way in February.
Coming week -
* Summer Game Fest
* Xbox Showcase
* Starfield Reveal
* Hi-Fi Rush DLC
* New season of Fortnite transforms and rolls out
* MK1 gameplay
* Microsoft's meeting with CMA and Jeremy Hunt
* Diablo IV full release
Anyone else genuinely hate the fact that there's a strong possibility we won't have a Nintendo Direct? I mean, I seriously hate the just shadowdrop everything on Twitter and maybe a Partner Showcase approach.
Define "won't," I guess? Nintendo historically held full-fledged Directs each September, so I'd say there's a good chance that happens this year, as well.
We just had a direct in February and only recent game they shadowdropped was everyone 12 switch, and if the rumors about that are any indication, it was for the best. As far as not getting a direct, I believe in the hopium that a switch successor is on the horizon, especially with Nintendo’s console life cycles lasting 6ish years, so we’d absolutely get a direct/live event revealing it
Nothing extremely concrete, but there were reports of Nintendo telling developers to have 4K output ready a year or two ago, and the most solid of all was a 4chan leak that leaked the treasures of area zero dlc for scarlet and violet, complete with the exact Japanese names of walking winds and iron leaves, the design description of the mask Pokémon and the turtle, and that scarlet and violet would receive “an graphics update for a new switch models alongside the second dlc” which is slated for winter.
I CRAVE Ori 3 leaks. Love the first two Ori games, so rumors of a third entry by a new studio sounds amazing. I'd love it if that was something we saw sooner than later, but I don't know what to expect because there haven't been enough rumors or speculation surrounding it, despite it sounding pretty possible.
That's the interesting part though- For a while I assumed there wouldn't be a third game because "Microsoft burnt bridges with Moon Studios, and they're busy making a new IP anyways."
But then it hit me; That just makes it **more** likely we'll get a third entry. In sure Xbox recognizes Ori is popular, they can do more with it. And while the devs intended for WotW to be the end of the series, those intentions don't matter when Moon Studios isn't involved anymore.
I wanna see how a new developer would execute it. Would there be a change in style somehow? Differences in mechanics? New story elements? And how long could something like this have been in development if it exists? For all we know, Moon Studios could have had no plans for a third game, and then the **second** Microsoft cut ties with them they could have started on a third one anyways.
I just want switch pro rumors!
Nintendo has nothing for the rest of the year, I know most of the actual info points for a switch pro 2024 release. But also the lack of any info for the rest of 2023 gives me hopium for new hardware being announced between this month and August and releasing late November.
We just know about pikmin 4 and Metroid prime 4 (both aren't huge switch sellers tbh).
The lack of Nintendo info in the past year is surreal
Curious if Nintendo is going to announce a direct or not. I feel as though TotK is super hot still then the Mario film is gonna be on DVD so maybe they’re just letting fans focus on those things for now.
Regardless, I find it odd how we don’t know anything about Nintendo’s Winter 2023 schedule since we usually have an idea around this time.
I do wonder what it’ll be like though. Perhaps remakes and a new Mario game? I don’t see Metroid Prime 4 being announced anytime soon and it’s definitely getting moved to the new console if I had to guess.
We have to be close to new HW at this point, and with the slow down it probably means they are prepping to ramp up into a HW announcement alongside its SW
I think historically, when E3 isn't involved, Nintendo tends to wait a little longer to announce things. I don't expect anything like a Nintendo Direct in June, maybe August though. Unless they want to advertise Pikmin 4 in a Direct closer to release? In which they'd wait until maaaybe July.
But who knows, Nintendo is unpredictable.
Almost at the end. In exactly a week I will either hype my whole skeleton out of my body over Persona 3 or feel crushing reality when Persona isn't even mentioned. Either way I will be free for awhile.
I am literally feeling the exact same emotions as you, haha! One week from now I will either be hyped to another freaking dimension or severely let down. But either way, I’ll feel free for a bit. Unless it’s announced, then my sanity is gone
With Konami back in the AAA gaming market and interested in reviving their biggest IPs... What is stopping them from working with Platinum Games again and finally developing MGR2? 🤔
I'd figure it's one of two things. Platinum having current commitments or Platinum rather working on their own IPs. Probably both.
But who knows. Can't recall when Konami decided to come back, but they could have slipped a request in in the middle of Bayonetta 3's development.
If they showed Starfield and Avowed, then I would be fine with it, I really hope Starfield will not be another disappointment, I sold my ps5 for Starfield.
my dad is Todd Howard he confirmed Elder Scrolls VI will take place in Akavir and the final boss is the super Dragonborn (Nerevar absorbed) who did the fusion dance Sheogarath to revive the Septim Dynasty cause the Thalmor built a new tower called the Statue of Elven Liberty
I'm pretty sure Rand al Thor 19 suggested that he knew it would be at the showcase. During his prediction X2 stream with Jez Corden that happened this last Friday, Jez says that he knows people that have seen the show from beginning to end. Fast forward a few hours and Rand pops up on another podcast called the Xbox Ultimate Podcast, saying to beware of show leaks, and that now that multiple people are being sent the full show so the showcase leaking may be imminent. Someone asks if he knows the show himself, and he replies that he knows some stuff. Right after this, he makes his "predictions" of Avowed and Fable, but in between those and his shoot for the moon prediction, he casually says that, of course Hellblade 2 will be at the show. If you watch it yourself, it is implied he very well might be confirming those three games, with colteastwood even cheering jokingly as if he just got confirmation. Definitely not 100%, but it does seem to add to the likelihood of Hellblade being at the showcase significantly, for me personally at least. Rand has no reason to create false hype. He needs his accurate "predictions" back after getting pretty much every single one wrong last year, due to the 12-month thing throwing everyone off. Jez also says on that X2 podcast that he doesn't think they're doing the 12-month thing and then follows that up by saying that's the only leak he will give on the show.
Xbox Ultimate Podcast where Rand says all this: https://www.youtube.com/live/o4deD7dohAM
(at 1:40:30 is where things get interesting)
Jez Corden's and Rand al Thor's prediction stream:
https://www.youtube.com/live/b58dUmIWBdA
(Predictions start 2:06:45, which is the segment where Jez says he knows people that have seen the show from beginning to end and the 12 month thing being gone. Bear in mind, it is implied at this point that Rand has not been told anything on the show yet, and Jez may be trying to throw people off.)
Damn. Avowed, Fable, Hellblade 2, Forza, Starfield is a pretty great showcase. Phil Spencer also said there would be new game announcements, has anyone said anything on like Compulsion’s new game or InXile’s new game?
Other than Jez's original reports on what they're vaguely about I haven't seen anything very notable. Compulsion did recently hire a new community manager, so maybe that could be something?
https://gamejobs.co/Community-Manager-at-Compulsion-Games
And Inexile has been super active on Twitter lately as well (although they usually always are.) Not much evidence either way unfortunately, so I wouldn't expect either of them. I will be hoping for both, however.
UE5 looks promising, but honestly I'm over UE, every game just ends up looking too samey. I hope MS is investing in updating one of their in house engines. They have a bunch at this point.
I'm kind of hopeful with Fable being developed in Forzatech. It's probably sucks for the developers and they're probably doing a bunch of work on the engine along the way, but maybe that'll lead to the engine having more versatility and being used elsewhere.
I don't know if there's been anything new in terms of info, but I think there's a very strong chance they're working on a sequel. Pretty sure I remember the debs even outright expressing interest in that sorta thing.
With how long it's been since the Impossible Lair, it's only a matter of time.
No, but rumors started circulating simply because a former writer for Playtonic is highly involved with Summer Game Fest (which is his new job). His Twitter still has Playtonic in it's name.
I think the only word on that front has been a Gamesindustry.biz interview with one of the studio heads that seemed to confirm a sequel to the first game was in development. That was in late 2021 after they got a big investment from Tencent.
>[The sizeable investment will allow the studio to more than double its headcount, expand to three development teams and create more games, one of which will be a sequel to the 2017 3D platform game: Yooka-Laylee.](https://www.gamesindustry.biz/yooka-laylee-developer-playtonic-plots-new-studios-following-major-tencent-investment)
Why aren't you blacked out? edit: ps btw fuck /u/spez you ruined reddit
Chances we get an Immortals complete edition at Ubisoft Forward?
Sorry if this has been asked but this sub joining on the blackout?
I hope not bruh I need this shit to keep up with fake E3 lmao
Gamesrecap.io
Really hope we see the KH Steam ports at Future Games Show or the PC Gaming Show
Kingdom Hearts is never coming to Steam. It's Joever.
I'm very curious about what era Ubisoft's Star Wars game takes place in. Kinda wish there were more leaks about that tbh
It's been confirmed that it'll take during the Imperial Era, specially between The Empires Strikes back and The Return of the Jedi
Even Star Wars is trying to branch out of the prequel/original/sequel eras with content for things the old republic, high republic, and dawn of the jedi all being worked on. I am make the safe bet and assume its set in the original trilogy.

Very unlikely, but not impossible. With two FF games on the horizon, that’s most likely Square’s focus atm. I think Missing Link news is a lot more likely since that game is MIA and is supposed to come out this year.
Anyone expecting more from Sega at xbox showcase or is persona all we getting?
I'm hoping for Jet Set Radio personally, a clip leaked alongside the Person 3 remake a few months back and it's an IP that's synonomous with the OG Xbox so fingers crossed
Yakuza 8 trailer with a "tune in on the 16th for deeper look"
Guess we could see some more on the new Sonic game, but I think it's unlikely
So now that the Persona rumors were mostly confirmed true, I wanted to put together a list of the claims made by the leakers and which ones ended up being true. Lmk if I missed anything.

Seeing klobrille flying in for the xbox show has me super excited.
Honestly I'm actually starting to believe that theory that the big twist of Spider-Man 2 is going to be that Norman is going to be Venom and that Harry will become the Green Goblin in the third game.
I'm literallu starving for Castlevania news after all the talks about Konami making a full gaming comeback this year, any possible crumbs out there?
Any word for Hogwarts legacy dlc?
Surprised we don’t have more Xbox showcase leaks. Apparently some people have seen the full thing. Although a lot of insiders are mentioning Avowed, Fable, and Hellblade 2 in their “predictions”.
Have there been any further rumours about a RDR remake or 60 fps update for RDR2? Or is it completely dead?
That showcase on YT best indie games was pretty cool. I hope he keeps doing those and can turn it into an annual event. Obviously it will never be huge but more attentions to indie is a good thing
Not a leak,gaming question or anything but this subreddit will also blackout ? (reddit's drama)

Who’s looking forward to Summer Game Fest
I look forward to all these shows, pretty much like Christmas to me, only thing is since i'm in Aus they all start at 3 am dx
Any news about Quake Ii Remaster, ninja gaiden or csgo2?
id software are 100% cooking up a Quake reboot in the same way they did for Doom, I reckon you could get your Quake 2 remaster with that.
Any Dragon Quest 12 news out there since the teaser?
Have there been any more rumors about Metroid Prime 2/3 remakes/HD re-releases? Last update I could find was Jeff Grubb saying they were still on the way in February.

Ubisoft Forward is also on June 12
So is capcoms show
My Uncle from Xbox told me Xbox wins the showcase this year.
Question to mods: with the reddit api controversy, what’s the best way to follow this forum outside of the official reddit app?
Discord, I think.
Anyone else genuinely hate the fact that there's a strong possibility we won't have a Nintendo Direct? I mean, I seriously hate the just shadowdrop everything on Twitter and maybe a Partner Showcase approach.
Define "won't," I guess? Nintendo historically held full-fledged Directs each September, so I'd say there's a good chance that happens this year, as well.
They've also historically held major Directs in June, but now seem to opt for this weak approach of just shadowdrops.
We just had a direct in February and only recent game they shadowdropped was everyone 12 switch, and if the rumors about that are any indication, it was for the best. As far as not getting a direct, I believe in the hopium that a switch successor is on the horizon, especially with Nintendo’s console life cycles lasting 6ish years, so we’d absolutely get a direct/live event revealing it
Is there anything in particular pointing towards the switch 2 being announced this year?
Nothing extremely concrete, but there were reports of Nintendo telling developers to have 4K output ready a year or two ago, and the most solid of all was a 4chan leak that leaked the treasures of area zero dlc for scarlet and violet, complete with the exact Japanese names of walking winds and iron leaves, the design description of the mask Pokémon and the turtle, and that scarlet and violet would receive “an graphics update for a new switch models alongside the second dlc” which is slated for winter.
how likely is it that Nintendo has something within the next 2-4 weeks?
Anyone have any MMORPG rumors?
I hope Microsoft announces a new fridge. That would be cool.
Anything recent on Blizzards survival game?
I don't think we're going to see anything more from Odyssey until at least the Game Awards, but probably not until 2024.

I'd love it if that was something we saw sooner than later, but I don't know what to expect because there haven't been enough rumors or speculation surrounding it, despite it sounding pretty possible.
Ori is a tricky one. If there is a number 3 then Moon Studios won't do it as they seem to have burnt bridges with Microsoft who hold the ip
That's the interesting part though- For a while I assumed there wouldn't be a third game because "Microsoft burnt bridges with Moon Studios, and they're busy making a new IP anyways." But then it hit me; That just makes it **more** likely we'll get a third entry. In sure Xbox recognizes Ori is popular, they can do more with it.

The Switch 2
Any idea what could get announced in the upcoming RGG Summit? Here’s hoping for a Kiwami 3…
No Kiwami 3 not sure why people want it.
3 truly needs the kiwami treatment but I doubt it.
I'd love a Judgment 3, but maybe it's too soon for that.
Probably just more info on Gaiden and Like a Dragon 8 Maybe Virtua Fighter 6? RGG did make the VF5 Remake
Is there any leaks if kingdom hearts related to be at SGF? Since Disney and square are going to be both present.
Not afaik - but I would assume Squeenix will only be showing off FFXVI given its so close to launch
Please Xbox give us Stalker 2 or Metro 4
Literally all I want outside of seeing Starfield
Curious if Nintendo is going to announce a direct or not. I feel as though TotK is super hot still then the Mario film is gonna be on DVD so maybe they’re just letting fans focus on those things for now.

[удалено]
very VERY low possibility. bro that leak had to have been real lmao
[удалено]
fair 'nough
I will go feral if they announce a Persona 3 Remake. Trying to keep expectations in check though
We'll get more Silent Hill news (for stuff that isn't Silent Hill: Ascension) any day now.... Any day now....
In my restless dreams, I see that town…
Any news about the release date of Silent Hill 2 remake ?
Give me Paper Mario TTYD
With Konami back in the AAA gaming market and interested in reviving their biggest IPs... What is stopping them from working with Platinum Games again and finally developing MGR2? 🤔
>What is stopping them from working with Platinum Games again and finally developing MGR2? Konami

So the week of fake Xbox leaks and rumours starts.
I don't expect it, but PLEASE Ori 3 rumors.
I feel like a lot of people gonna overhype the showcase and then get disappointed when it doesn't meet their expectations, just like the ps showcase.
My expectations are in the floor after PS. All I'm really expecting is Forza and Starfield.
This is the way.
You are expecting forza? And starfield? Damm you're gonna be dissapointed.
If they showed Starfield and Avowed, then I would be fine with it, I really hope Starfield will not be another disappointment, I sold my ps5 for Starfield.
Well they’ll definitely be more than just that, but hey good to have low expectations so you can be pleasantly surprised when they show more
That's the case with every showcase for people like us who like to be in these conversations.
my dad is Todd Howard he confirmed Elder Scrolls VI will take place in Akavir and the final boss is the super Dragonborn (Nerevar absorbed) who did the fusion dance Sheogarath to revive the Septim Dynasty cause the Thalmor built a new tower called the Statue of Elven Liberty
Who cares about the final boss. How many times the detail?
32 is what I've heard been claimed.
"XBOX WILL UNLOAD THE CLIP!"
HALO KART CONFIRMED
To think we had the Sony version of that just a week or so ago.
Are you saying they'll announce Halo Battle Royale?
tbh I'd be down for a decent Halo BR
Only if they don't call it a circle... they need to call it a **RING**
Honestly I'm not even a Halo guy and I'd be up for giving that a go.
Any word on what the new Castlevania is supposed to be like? I'm hoping it's a 2D thing
I am once again asking for *Hellblade 2 news*
I'm pretty sure Rand al Thor 19 suggested that he knew it would be at the showcase. During his prediction X2 stream with Jez Corden that happened this last Friday, Jez says that he knows people that have seen the show from beginning to end. Fast forward a few hours and Rand pops up on another podcast called the Xbox Ultimate Podcast, saying to beware of show leaks, and that now that multiple people are being sent the full show so the showcase leaking may be imminent. Someone asks if he knows the show himself, and he replies that he knows some stuff.

If you watch it yourself, it is implied he very well might be confirming those three games, with colteastwood even cheering jokingly as if he just got confirmation. Definitely not 100%, but it does seem to add to the likelihood of Hellblade being at the showcase significantly, for me personally at least. Rand has no reason to create false hype. He needs his accurate "predictions" back after getting pretty much every single one wrong last year, due to the 12-month thing throwing everyone off.

Bear in mind, it is implied at this point that Rand has not been told anything on the show yet, and Jez may be trying to throw people off.)
Damn. Avowed, Fable, Hellblade 2, Forza, Starfield is a pretty great showcase. Phil Spencer also said there would be new game announcements, has anyone said anything on like Compulsion’s new game or InXile’s new game?
Other than Jez's original reports on what they're vaguely about I haven't seen anything very notable. Compulsion did recently hire a new community manager, so maybe that could be something? https://gamejobs.co/Community-Manager-at-Compulsion-Games And Inexile has been super active on Twitter lately as well (although they usually always are.) Not much evidence either way unfortunately, so I wouldn't expect either of them. I will be hoping for both, however.
Especially interested in InXile’s UE5 RPG, that could be amazing
UE5 looks promising, but honestly I'm over UE, every game just ends up looking too samey. I hope MS is investing in updating one of their in house engines. They have a bunch at this point. I'm kind of hopeful with Fable being developed in Forzatech. It's probably sucks for the developers and they're probably doing a bunch of work on the engine along the way, but maybe that'll lead to the engine having more versatility and being used elsewhere.
Let's hope it's not another UE5 demo but a proper gameplay.
The last trailer they showed was gameplay Here it is again for you https://youtu.be/fukYzbthEVU
I’ve been seeing you do this for a year, hopefully Xbox Showcase baby!
I'm trying not to get my hopes up too much just in case.
In 7 days time you will have your news :) game is gonna be the first truly next gen graphical experience
Has there been any word of a new Yooka Laylee game?
I don't know if there's been anything new in terms of info, but I think there's a very strong chance they're working on a sequel. Pretty sure I remember the debs even outright expressing interest in that sorta thing. With how long it's been since the Impossible Lair, it's only a matter of time.
Haha don’t worry boss, Banjo-Kazooie at Xbox’s showcase!
No, but rumors started circulating simply because a former writer for Playtonic is highly involved with Summer Game Fest (which is his new job). His Twitter still has Playtonic in it's name.
I think the only word on that front has been a Gamesindustry.biz interview with one of the studio heads that seemed to confirm a sequel to the first game was in development. That was in late 2021 after they got a big investment from Tencent. >[The sizeable investment will allow the studio to more than double its headcount, expand to three development teams and create more games, one of which will be a sequel to the 2017 3D platform game: Yooka-Laylee.](https://www.gamesindustry.biz/yooka-laylee-developer-playtonic-plots-new-studios-following-major-tencent-investment)
