Guardians of the Galaxy, Zelda, Avatar and more.

With E3 2021 done and dusted, it’s time to sift through all the reveals by developers and showcase the biggest games that we’re excited about.

This year, the world's biggest gaming conference dropped some bombs that have got fans everywhere pumped for what will be an awesome 12 months in gaming.

From new footage of Breath of the Wild 2 to Starfield, here are all the biggest announcements from E3 2021.

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild 2

Zelda fans finally have something to cheer about with Breath of the Wild 2. The game was announced at E3 2019 but only now have Nintendo spoiled us with some footage. Get ready to return to Hyrule, only this time the sky’s the limit with Nintendo opening up the sky for exploration.

Coming to Nintendo Switch in 2022.

Elden Ring

The gameplay trailer for Elden Ring dropped early on in E3 and it’s fair to say we’re amped for this love child born from the minds of George R.R. Martin and Hidetaka Miyazaki. To get the full lowdown on Elden Ring, check out our explainer article here.

Coming to PlayStation on 21 January, 2022.

Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora

Over to the mind of director James Cameron where Ubisoft are creating a first-person action-adventure game set inside the Avatar Universe. Gamers play as a Na’vi, embarking on a journey to explore the Western Frontier of Pandora, all the while contending against the colonial forces of humans. This is guaranteed to be a mesmerising visual experience.

Available on PS5, Xbox Series X/S and PC in 2022.

Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy

Get ready for a wicked 80s mixtape as Marvel are releasing a standalone Guardians of the Galaxy game to try and satiate fans’ undying thirst for superhero content. Playing as Star-Lord, get ready to journey throughout the galaxy with the rest of the Guardians. It’s a Telltale game, so expect it to be similar to The Walking Dead gameplay where choices you make impacts your relationships with the rest of the squad.

Coming 26 October 2021 for PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One and PC.

Starfield

Bethesda spoiled us rotten when they dropped the first trailer for the highly anticipated Starfield. This outer space RPG looks incredible, and though deets about plot and gameplay are non-existent, we know that anything Bethesda do is freakin’ awesome so we’re not worried.

Launches 11 November 2022 on Xbox Series X/S and PC.

Mario Party Superstars and Mario Golf: Super Rush

Everyone’s favourite Italian plumber (sorry Luigi) is back for Mario Party Superstars, a remastering of the Nintendo 64 version of the game including five boards and 100 mini-games. Awesome for anyone who loves playing locally with mates.

Mario has been busy during lockdown, ‘cos he’s also getting his own golf game Super Rush. A must play for anyone who loved Wii Sports.

Super Rush tees off 25 June while Mario Party Superstars drops 29 October.
