While June tends to be slow when it comes to console releases because of all the attention on E3, we do have some notable drops this month.

But for right now, it is time to focus on what we can play this month. A couple new fighters have already released, Elder Scrolls is getting a major new expansion, and a Sony favorite from yesteryear makes a triumphant return in June’s best console releases….

Nintendo kept a few announcements for after its main E3 showcase, believe it or not. And this was a good one. We saw what might be the shortest teaser trailer in the history of gaming (really more just an image with some text and an all black background in the from a video) for Metroid Prime 4 during the show. But we don’t know much outside of the fact that it is in development and is still a long ways out. Nonetheless, this is great news for long-time fans of the series and newcomers alike. But you won’t have to wait all that long for a brand new Metroid game it turns out. Nintendo announced another one today that is dropping in 2017…

This is it folks, the big Sony E3 2017 showcase event. While Microsoft, EA, Ubisoft and Bethesda have already shown what they have up their sleeves, Sony has had the most impressive E3 showings for the last couple years, and once again, it did not disappoint.

Today, Microsoft took the stage at E3 in Los Angeles to unveil its next generation console: Xbox One X. Previously called Project Scorpio, this was the first opportunity we’ve had for an in-depth look since it was first teased a year ago. Alongside this new 4K gaming system, Microsoft detailed 42 fresh games including Forza Motorsport 7, Assassin’s Creed Origins, and Metro Exodus. Of course, that comes after today’s price drop on the current generation Xbox One S. More on that can be found right here.
We have full details on the upcoming Xbox One X alongside trailers for the most notable game announcements from today’s event after the break.
We’ve been covering some pre-E3 news the past week, but today, the eagerly awaited gaming expo has finally begun. EA kicked off this year’s event by getting us up to speed on a few of its upcoming titles.
The Mega Man Legacy Collection for Xbox One, PS4 and Nintendo 3DS was a nice treat for fans of the classic side-scrolling shooter, despite only including the first few adventures in the series. It features all six of the original Mega Man games along with some nice bonus material and support for current gen consoles and hardware, but it just wasn’t quite enough to quench the retro-gaming thirst of nostalgic blue bomber fans.
Well, thanks to an official announcement from Capcom, the legacy is set to continue this summer on most major consoles…
