Bethesda has started sending invites out for its E3 2017 press conference, and it’s styled after an amusement part map with all of its games shown as attractions.
As you can see in the image tweeted by Bethesda’s Pete Hines, two of these attractions are under construction and feature “coming soon” signs. Looking over the map, starting from the Fallout 4 park entrance and heading right you see the first attraction under construction.
Continuing counterclockwise on the map, you’ll come to what looks to be Quake Champions, as the characters look like heroes Nyx, Scalebearer, and Ranger. Continuing on, you come across Doom and The Elder Scrolls Online (note the massive Morrowind mushrooms).
The next area is the second coming attraction, followed by Prey and Dishonored 2.
It’s known that Bethesda has two unannounced projects in the works which are similar in scope to Fallout 4 and Skyrim.
Nether are Elder Scrolls 6 as it is in very, very early development and a long ways off, according to Todd Howard. The two projects in the works coming from the firm will be released before another entry in the Elder Scrolls franchise. We expect ES6 to release sometime before 2030. I’m joking. Take your time, guys and gals.
Back in February 2016, Howard said the studio was working on “three long-term” projects “different than anything” it has done before, but it would still be a “Bethesda-style game.”
It’s more than plausible one of the games “under construction” on the map is The Evil Within 2. A rumor from last year suggested the game along with Wolfenstein 2 would be revealed by Besthesda at E3 2016, but it neither came to pass.
As recently as March, a job listing in Japan for Psycho Break 2 (the game’s Japanese title) popped up online, so it’s pretty easy to assume it’s coming at some point.
Bethesda said the game sold well enough to warrant a sequel, but so did Rage, so that is a possibility too. Don’t quote us on that, though.
Like last year, the firm will host its E3 2017 press conference on Sunday, June 11 the day before the conference kicks off. It starts at 7pm PDT /10pm EDT/3am UK.
Microsoft will also its E3 conference that Sunday, but it will take place a couple of hours before Bethesda’s so there will be a small reprieve as Microsoft’s pressers tend to last around 90 minutes. It starts at 2pm PDT/5pm EDT/11pm UK.
It’s going to be a rather busy Sunday, and as always, we’ll be covering the Bethesda livestream and provide you with all the news fit to print out of it. And Microsoft’s too, of course.
