8 Big Announcements We Want To See At E3 2016

Brace yourselves everybody, E3 2016 is almost here! Yes, it’s that time of the year when gamers revel in the excitement of new industry information and the world's gaming press gear themselves up for an exhausting week of coffee fuelled press coverage. Forget the recent grumbles of the show losing some of its relevance, E3 is easily the industry’s most important calendar event and we’re expecting this year to be packed with tantalizing new gaming announcements.

Guerrilla Games have been pumping out the Killzone franchise since the earliest days of PlayStation 2, and we don’t blame them for wanting to show off what they can do with a new project. Horizon Zero Dawn is the developer’s answer to that newfound freedom, and what a new IP it looks to be.

For many, it was the standout game of last year’s E3. Guerrilla Games have flipped the switch on both genre and premise, replacing the linearity of Kilzone’s FPS gameplay with an open world third person title, and we’re dying for more information and gameplay footage this year.

Perhaps the most pressing question we want answered is whether the game is still scheduled to release in 2016. Industry insider Shinobi602 chimed in once again earlier this year, this time with the rather depressing revelation that he had head Horizon Zero Dawn had been delayed to 2017. In all honesty, it wouldn’t really surprise us given that Sony have a tendency to delay their big releases as of late, but the company haven’t issued any statement to confirm rumours as of yet, so we’re still holding onto hope that the title will see a release this year.
