The demand for the developer direct is increasing and frothing.

DOOM DIRECT

 

[SlimySnake]

really looking forward to seeing Doom and Claire Obscure. South of Midnight looks graphically brilliant but gameplay wise very dated and boring.

Need to see this surprise announcement. lets hope its not a ps5 port and a brand new reveal.

Me too

 

[adamsapple]

I think Draugoth 's thread was first so this should be merged there.

I don't think they'd just do a port announcement as one of the four key pillars of the direct.

Xbox bankrupcy announcement hype

what do we think it is though?

i feel like most xbox studios have either just released games or have already announced their future games.

i suppose forza horizon 6 reveal could be due. i doubt they would reveal elden rings so soon.

what was avalache working on?

Avalanche is reportedly working on Contraband, but who knows what that game's status is at that point. Won't be surprised if it has been quietly canceled.

There's rumors of one big Japanese game at this show, so let's see.

My heart wants a RE IX announcement.

 

[Soapbox Killer]

Did State of Decay 3 die on its way back to his home planet?

Did State of Decay 3 die on its way back to his home planet?

They just showed it during the June showcase. The next time we will see it will likely be during the next developer direct.

 

[Topher]

I'm here

 

[ShadyAcshuns]

 

[Hookshot]

I highly doubt it will happen but it would be amusing if they did show more Switch 2 games than that lackluster Nintendo reveal.

 

[Bitstream]

Would love to see some Blade gameplay.

 

[Soapbox Killer]

They just showed it during the June showcase. The next time we will see it will likely be during the next developer direct.

no gameplay tho.

That's all I want to see after a game was announced 4 years ago

 

[Dr. Samuel Hayden]

Here for Doom. Could not care less about anything else.

 

[LordCBH]

Excited to see Doom and Expedition 33.

 

[Buggy Loop]

Its not in the rumours but I really want to see Clockwork revolution.

[Mortisfacio]

[Cakeboxer]

Just give me a Doom relases date and some news for State of Decay 3.

 

[Wulfer]

That's what happens when you don't cancel games!

 

[Antwix]

Just give me a Doom relases date and some news for State of Decay 3.

Yeah we'll see if that leaked May release date is true

 

[ResilientBanana]

I'm actually expecting a fairly positive showing.

 

[adamsapple]

I'm actually expecting a fairly positive showing.

It would be a fairly good show just for Doom and Clair Obscura alone, the rest is the cherry.

 

[Kacho]

Time to speed run a shower. Let's fucking go, boysssss

 

[near]

My expectation is low. So, I guess this will be fun!

EviLore
Mod of War: Remastered

 

[Lucifers Beard]

I wonder if they'll announce a release date for Indiana Jones PS5 or even announce any other Xbox games for PS5 since they've been rumoured.

Anyway, really looking forward to this one!
