Via Kotaku:

A security flaw on publisher Bandai Namco’s website has led to a major new E3 leak that reveals three new games: the rumored From Software-George R.R. Martin collaboration, a new Tales game, and Ni no Kuni remastered.

The leak came through a publicly available link on Bandai Namco’s website, per the website Gematsu (which has full descriptions of each game). Via various posters on ResetEra, the leaks are:

Elden Ring , for PS4, Xbox One, and PC, a new game from the makers of Dark Souls and Sekiro in collaboration with Game of Thrones creator George R.R. Martin. Turns out all those rumors were indeed true.

A collaboration between the 'Souls devs and George RR Martin is a perfect match.

Kotaku has also reported on a bunch of other leaks:

I guess George RR Martin really liked the “You Died” bit.

Oh boy… EA just had the worst E3 press conference ever, and they were not even officially part of E3… 3 hours for 6 games? And none of that on Anthem. Not even a mention of it. Yet The Sims 4 gets a half hour all to itself. Hahaha!

Microsoft did really well, and I loved their conference. So many highlights and things to look forward to.

Firstly, CYBERPUNK AND KEANU REEVES!!! The madlads really did it! I am so extremely hyped for the game it’s not even funny.

The new version of the Xbox Elite controller looks awesome as well. I’ve always wanted an Elite controller. I know they’ll be super expensive, but damn it looks good.

MOTHERDUCKING FLIGHT SIMULATOR IS BACK!!! And if the game looks only 10% as good as that trailer, it’s going to be absolutely epic. I’ve always loved MS Flight Sim.

Game Pass Ultimate is the single best gaming investment anyone can make. I mean how many games did they show that will be added to the service ON DAY ONE of their release?! It’s a fantastic service, and very happy it’s coming to the PC as well.

Halo Infinite is going to be massive! I have a funny feeling that it’s going to be a massively big selling point for Project Scarlet.

Speaking of which, at least we have some news on Project Scarlet. So we know it will have an AMD Zen 2 CPU, GDDR6 RAM, an SSD, and AMD Navi PGU with ray tracing. Sounds like a good combination to me. I guess we’ll see more details on the console only at next year’s E3. Luckily we have a release date of “Holiday 2020”, so lots of time to save up for it.

Other things I liked was the new expansion for State of Decay 2, I’ll definitely be playing that. Also Crossfire X looks interesting.

I quickly scanned the Bethesda conference and there is absolutely nothing that interests me. I saw Commander Keen, got excited, heard it was for mobile and then promptly moved on.

And he looks good in game too! I love the reveal at the end of the trailer. Sort of CDPR way of saying “We got Keanu MF Reeves in our game! What you bitches got?!”

I was underwhelmed by the Microsoft conference overall. Lots of flash and 2020 releases.

I guess I was wanting more info on Scarlet and some out of the blue shadow drops.

That is why sony skipped this E3. Most of the Top tier titles for the next generation is kept for E3 2020

Thats why you didnt see any forza or Fable or Perfect dark etc.

I didnt expect the double fine acquisition i was expecting it to be ready at dawn
They revealed technically the same bits of console info that sony did.

4x times the performance of the one X is a massive jump (im still not jumping on the early adopter bandwagon though)

Forgot to mention that i had to stream the IGN xbox conference feed via the youtube app on the xbox because the mixer feed had buffering issues.

One thing I was hoping for was more info on Age of Empires IV. It’s been 2 years since we’ve seen a very brief cutscene revealing the game…
