Those who have played the original Hollow Knight eagerly await its sequel, Hollow Knight: Silksong. It’s an action-adventure video game developed and published by Team Cherry. While it was announced in 2019, fans have been patiently waiting to see more of this title. Since there is not much information available about its release, it can be assumed that Hollow Knight: Silksong won't be featured at E3 this year.

There is a massive captive audience for the Need for Speed titles, and these fans are patiently waiting to experience more racing action. Laura Miele, the Chief Studios Officer of EA, said that the next NFS game is delayed to 2022 because of this pandemic.

Miele stated that Criterion, who is developing the next NFS title, is temporarily helping EA DICE. The company is busy working on a new Battlefield game, so fans may not see any updates about NFS at E3.

3) Hogwarts Legacy

Hogwarts Legacy was teased in September 2020. Since then, fans of the Harry Potter series have been looking forward to this title. Portkey Games and Avalanche Software are developing Hogwarts Legacy. WB Games is set to publish it.

The official Twitter handle for Summer Game Fest recently replied to a fan by stating that the Warner Bros Games presentation is only for Back 4 Blood. It confirmed that there would be no separate event for any other Warner Bros games.

Grand Theft Auto has always been popular among fans, with GTA 5 becoming one of the most successful games by Rockstar Games. It has been eight years since the title was launched, and fans have been desperately waiting for a new game.

While Grand Theft Auto VI is under development, the company is focused on releasing the next-generation version of GTA 5 later this year. Unfortunately, that means fans won't be getting GTA 6 news at E3 this year.

1) Saints Row V
