Update: The Game Awards host Geoff Keighley has now updated his projections for next week's show, claiming that it'll now feature around 15 brand new titles. To clarify, that's 15 all-new games which haven't been made public before or leaked at the time of writing. We were already rather happy with the initial total reaching double figures, but this 50% increase in new reveals has us hyped. Keighley's a lovely chap, isn't he?
Original story: The awards themselves are lovely, but let's not kid ourselves, we'll be watching The Game Awards next week for all the new announcements and reveals. It's a good job then that host Geoff Keighley has given us insight into what will be at the show so that we can set our expectations accordingly -- he says there will be "around 10 new games" revealed at the event.
However, that doesn't mean we should only expect 10 announcements at The Game Awards. Keighley is specifically referencing "things that no one has heard about yet", as stated in today's Reddit AMA. That leaves the door open for games that are already known to the public to boost that number, such as a full Elden Ring reveal of more information on upcoming titles such as Dreams and The Outlast Trials. Although, simply learning that we can look forward to seeing 10 entirely new games at the show next week is still very exciting indeed. Could any of them be next-gen titles? We doubt it, but the thought sends our hype metres into overdrive.

well i catch up on what's shown here afterwards, the game awards are a total bore fest
plus i just find Geoff Keighley really irritating so i would rather not watch and see his smug face
I'm expecting the new Batman reveal, WB has been teasing the game for months.
1.resi 3 remake
2.batman game
3.bayoneta and vanquish collection
which leaves out 7 more games.
a further prediction includes a release date for biomutant (anyone remember that game)?
Hope we get a couple big surprises. I will probably watch it on mute while playing something. Hopefully it's a much shorter, more compact affair than last year. Taking 3 hours instead of trimming some fat and having a nice jam packed 2 wasn't good.
@redd214 but when else would they award those totally irrelevant twitch streamers that take up half of the awards then?
@jdv95 new bioshock, whatever sony japan is doing, fable 4? Here is hoping for something that moves the needle
@Nyne11Tyme fable would be better off kept for xbox scarlet's reveal i think.
@jdv95 im sure that's their plan
I want a game where David Byrne crash-lands his spaceship on a swamp planet and has to use a giant hammer to demolish his way to a mountain of dilythium crystals, developing a mutant power skill tree along the way. With a surprise twist ending involving J.R. from Dallas.
But that's probably just me.
@FullbringIchigo I think The Game Awards are fine as long as they dont do that crap they did a few years ago ever again with Joel McHale. 🤮
I could see the last season 1 Smash character being announced, they showed Joker last year after all. Hopefully an update on SMT V? On PS5, a few 'in development now' sorta deals like with BotW 2 wouldn't go amiss since next year's actually looking pretty full until launch day.
Just want Resi 3 remake and a new Smash character
Hopefully a new Uncharted game
We all want to see a new Earthworm Jim game announced.
@Nyne11Tyme I’m sure that whatever Japan Studio are cooking up won’t be reveal till the PS5 event. Heard was a big JRPG.
1) new syphon filter game
2) new socom game for PS4
3) new skate game
4) new ratchet and clank
5) timesplitters!
6) brand new crash bandicoot game!
7) new grab Turismo reveal
8) something VR related
9) new Jak and daxter
10) remake of NFL blitz
This is just my Xmas list, nothing more to see here.... As for what's gonna be revealed, well who the hell knows???
Oh and knack 3 for the one guy who's always asking for knack 3!
Brought to you by mountain dew & Doritos.
@EVIL-C Brought to you by Tomsons Teeth the only teeth strong enough to eat other teeth.
(Futurama reference people)
@Ken_Kaniff well that and not filling it with a bunch of youtbubers and streamers no one cares about because they think that's the "cool" thing right now
i mean who would do something as dumb as that "cough"E3"cough"
kingdoms of amalur remastered anyone?
a vampyr 2 would be great but that would be better off for the ps5 though.
a dragon age trilogy collection for ps4 perhaps? (mass effect is more asked for but i don't care about that )
wow at this point they could just make the game reveals it's own mini show.
would be great for those that want to watch the reveals live but can't be bothered with all the other stuff such as youtubers on a stage.
I'm hoping for some good ones next week. Last year's new games announcements weren't that impressive.
@WanderingBullet one word outerworld.
So yes it was great!
It was atleast 10 b4 now it 15 cool
@jdv95 i still remember biomutant, i really wish they would give a release date for that, i guess the longer it takes the more polished it will be..?
@Ridwaano Outer Worlds is actually two words. The full title is three words.
@WanderingBullet well good then you know what I mean.
@jdv95 As much as I would love to see a KoA Remastered because it's such a great game and I enjoyed every minute of it. Because the combat alone is just dam good THQ Nordic for past so called remasters haven't been the best like Red Faction Guerilla has really bad frame rate issues in the PS4 version.
