Everyone has high expectations for this E3 2019. Gamers have been on the edge of their seats waiting for news on their favorite upcoming video games and potentially a new generation of consoles. With Sony not participating in E3 2019, it gives other companies the chance to take the spotlight and really show off their upcoming projects. Here, we’re compiling the best trailers and announcements from this year’s show, starting with all of the major press conferences.

George R. R. Martin’s Elden Ring is Revealed
Maybe this is why he can’t finish the Game of Thrones books? He’s been too busy working on Elden Ring? Not much is known about the project, but if George R. R. Martin is involved, then it should be built around a pretty incredible fantasy universe.
Gears 5, Halo Infinite Get Release Dates
Likely two of the most anticipated Xbox games of late, Gears 5, the fifth installment of Gears of War, and Halo Infinite both got official release dates. Gears 5 will come on September 10, 2019, and Halo Infinite will come with the next generation Xbox in late 2020.

Xbox Project Scarlett is Announced
The next generation of game consoles is upon us! The Xbox One was released in November 2013. The Xbox One X came along in November 2017. Now, the next Xbox console, currently referred to as Project Scarlett, is coming in late 2020.
The New Star Wars Game We’ve Been Waiting For
Gamers have been waiting for a high-quality Star Wars video game for a long time. It has been many years since Knights of the Old Republic and the original Battlefront games. Since then, we’ve been waiting, sometimes patiently, sometimes eagerly, for a new (and good; looking at you Battlefront remake) Star Wars game. Well, with Jedi: Fallen Order, our prayers may be answered.
Google Stadia Makes an Appearance
Stadia, Google’s upcoming video game streaming service, had some announcements of their own at E3 2019. With Gylt and Balder Gate III, Google is hoping their Stadia exclusives will be enough to drive gamers to use their new platform.
