The ESA just confirmed that Japanese publisher Square Enix will indeed be hosting some sort of presentation during E3 2021, but now we know exactly what to expect. It'll take the shape of another Square Enix Presents digital showcase on 13th June 2021 at 8:15pm BST / 12:15pm PT, with the headline announcement being a new game from Eidos Montreal. This is expected to be a Guardians of the Galaxy game, which has been rumoured to be in development for a number of years now. The show will be roughly 40 minutes long.
The digital event will also contain an update on the long-awaited Babylon's Fall, a closer look at Life Is Strange: True Colors, and more information on the Black Panther update coming to Marvel's Avengers. Rather interestingly, there's no mention whatsoever of Final Fantasy. A new title in collaboration with Team Ninja named Final Fantasy Origin is heavily speculated to be in attendance later this month, and then there's the question of Final Fantasy XVI.
Perhaps they're being saved for a difference showcase? One that Sony itself may host? We'll just have to wait and see what happens. Nevertheless, it looks like Square Enix has a few fun things up its sleeve for E3 2021. Will you be tuning in? Let us know in the comments below.

😬yeesh
Hopefully they've learned from their avengers mistakes and improve upon this one.
Having played Avengers (I know its not the same Studio but it's still SE) I'm fearing the worst for GotG
I really hope it's single player game like spidey ps4 rather than loot based game like avenger.
Hoping for anything Tomb Raider related. Not interested in a Gardians of the Galaxy game personally.
Can't wait for that epic Drax ribcage to drop!
No final fantasy, Dragon Quest or Kingdom Hearts news? Something else has to be coming surely
No Online multiplayer!!!!!
Yep, That’s all I want to say
Looking forward to more Babylon's Fall info. Cannot go wrong with Platinum games.
I wouldn't be shocked if they were saving Final Fantasy for PlayStation's inevitable showcase.
After the colossal mess that was The Avengers game, forgive me if my interest in this rumored Guardians of the Galaxy game is virtually non-existent
Honestly i want the Eidos Montreal game to be Deus Ex. Finish the trilogy
Guardians of the Galaxy please!
Please let there be a tease of some kind for kingdom hearts. Especially after all the story and lore reveals in the finale of the mobile game. I need more KH
Parasites eves.come on square enix.but im excited for babylons fall.word up son
@Korgon They haven't even started development on a new Tomb Raider
But there will be a new game, sometime in the future (confirmed).
@Korgon
Agreed, we are well over due for a new main installment in the TR franchise. That or remakes of the old games would make me very happy!
@Divergent95
Source for TR game not in development? I find that hard to believe.
@Icey664 There was an anniversary of TR two months ago.

You keep putting a pic of the movie Guardians but we know itl be knockoffs with Troy Baker as Starlord, Laura Bailey as Gamora and Nolan North as Rocket
@Divergent95
Damn I forgot about that... Very disappointing.
Please, please, please NOT another Marvel Avengers....
Avengers was average at best. Given what it could of been (singleplayer) and the characters, game mechanics that could have been utilised , Crystal Dynamics should be embarrassed.
How are they going to handle something as unique and quirky as Guardians of the Galaxy?
Fingers crossed this Guardians game is an single player action adventure game like Spiderman. But knowing Square Enix if they cant turn it into a money printing GaaS they probably wouldn't have agree to publish it in the first place.
Avengers was just fluffed it with too much unnecessary grind because of lack of content. It's about a 40 hour game were 30 of those hours are doing the same hive over and over again for that last stupid trophy. If you're one of those people that doesn't care about finishing games, then you'll probably really enjoy it if you like marvel.
I have no faith in this after Square's Avengers debacle.
@Brydontk The coop also make more sense than the avengers I think, it's really hard to make coop games where's you can play as hulk and black widow while facing the same enemy, the hulk/thor/iron man should be punching the enemy flying while black widow/captain america can only watch lol. There's somehing wrong watching hulk, thor, iron man all punching the same 1 boss enemy in avengers.
@Rob_230 I mean they revealed Dragon Quest 3 remake and Dragon Quest 12 just last week so I doubt there's going to be anything more for that franchise at E3.
@Abeedo True, but they didnt announce which consoles they would be launching on. I would very much like some confirmation at least that the beautiful DQ3 remake is going to make its way to Playstation!
Please Square, more Forspoken and Final Fantasy info! And I hope the Eidos game is Deus Ex or really anything that has nothing to do with Marvel.
Legacy of Kain Soul Reaver remake please and thank you
If its overhyped like Avengers was then Square Enix can absolutely do one. All that promotion for what turned out to be a pile of crap game.
I'm looking forward to Guardians of the Galaxy, Babylon's Fall, Life is Strange: True Colors, and even Marvel's Avengers.
Here's hoping they have a few surprises in store for us though...
