As we continue onward in E3 2021, the PC Gaming Show just wrapped up. We’ve already seen Square Enix’s launch with Guardians of the Galaxy, Avengers, and much more, as well as the Xbox and Bethesda show which showcased Elder Scrolls 6, Starfield, Halo Infinite, and even Forza Horizon 5. That’s far from all though, as yesterday the Gearbox show detailed Borderlands and more, as well as Ubisoft Forward with information on Rainbow Six Extraction, Far Cry 6, Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope. So, without further ado, we’re diving into the PC Gaming Show.
PC Gaming Show @ E3 2021
The PC Gaming Show today featured announcements for games that we expected, in including Dying Light 2, as well as interesting information on fan-favorites such as Jurassic World Evolution 2, which features voice acting from original characters like Jeff Goldblum and more. What games are you excited about? One that I wasn’t expecting to see but particularly can’t wait to play is Ixion, which looks like a fantastic space-themed game where…the moon explodes? We’re not quite sure what implications that has on Earth, since the moon is directly related to a lot of things like tides and more. So, without further ado, let’s take a look at everything announced at the PC Gaming Show at E3 2021.
