Square Enix's E3 conference will no longer be taking place on stage at this year's E3 in Los Angeles. Instead, they are taking the Nintendo route and doing a video presentation while focusing strictly on the upcoming games and projects that they will be announcing.
This is, by far, one of the best choices the company could've made given that E3 on stage presentations are usually quite embarrassing and hard to sit through, even more so if you happen to be part of the audience, not to mention time-consuming. A video presentation always goes straight to the point and doesn't need to show off laser light shows or have questionable music shows that gamers usually don't care about. Plus, since video presentations are pre-recorded, there are no technical difficulties at all, which is always nice.
Today, Square Enix has announced via Twitter that they will be streaming a special video presentation that will go live on Monday the
11th of June at
10AM PDT/
1PM EDT/
6PM BST. The presentation will be available in Japanese and English and streamed on YouTube, Twitch, mixer, Facebook, and Twitter.
Hopefully we will get to see something about that very secretive
Avengers project they announced , especially now that
Avengers: Infinity War is out and breaking every box office record possible. They will also, and most likely, show off
Shadow of the Tom Raider, and hopefully some new information on the
Final Fantasy 7 Remake that they announced in 2015 and still have no news about. Perhaps a new Chrono game now that the game has made it to Steam, regardless of all the
negative attention it got at first. We can only keep our fingers crossed and wait for that stream on the
11th of June.
