Here is the list of everything that got announced. I am only listing new game announcements or gameplay details. So things like dlc, port to other console, are excluded from the list.

Nier: Replicant Ver. 1.22474487139
I never played the original, but I loved Nier: Automata. This one looks bigger than automata, and looks super fun


Perfect Dark Reboot
As much as I'm interested in this, I was surprised by how many people unfamiliar with the franchise

Back4Blood
It's a Left 4 Dead successor that looks..... good? We'll have to see if this is another zombie shooter game

Scavengers

Another battle royale. A strong pass....

HOOD
It's like Payday set in a fictional medieval setting. I have to wonder if this is multiplayer-only, or is there any story elements?

The Callisto Protocol
A new horror game by the guy who did dead space. The aesthetics are very familiar. I will keep my eyes on this game.

Warhammer 40000: Darktide
Idk, it looks alright. Another co-op shooter. It might do well on the Warhammer name alone

Open Roads
Looks like an interactive-story game. Doesn't look too interesting

Dragon Age: Dread Wolf
Finally, some new info. Something about darkspawns returning? Still no gameplay

Century: Age of Ashes
You know, this might make up for my disappointment after scalebound cancellation

Crimson Desert
Looks beautiful. And there are a lot of exploring. I just hope the game doesn't get too big for it's own good (I'm looking at you, Assassin's Creed!)

Season
I don't know what to make of this game, other than say it looks fucking gorgeous

Ark 2
Was that Vin Diddel? That already for me is a selling point. Also Ark animated series with some strong casts? Holy.....

FIST: forgotten in shadow fist
Not that I don't like a fictional world with anthropomorphic animals, but what purpose does it serve? The game looks super fun, though

Ghosts n' Goblins: Resurrection
Well, can't wait ti see all the streamers raging to this game. If you thought the likes of Dark souls, Getting Over it, and Jump King was hard..... this game might break your sanity

Star Wars: Tales from galaxy's edge
Looks like a fun VR game, but I can't understand why every single SW games need to have jedi, sith, and force.

Monster Hunter: Rise
As long as it doesn't have an annoying handler. Or a handler that acts like an decent human being

Evil Dead The Game
Time to get my boomstick out!

Returnal
I mean it looks alright, but I've seen tons of games in the genre; Not really impressed

Evil West
A demon-slaying game set in wild west. Kinda reminds me of the tabletop rpg Deadlands

Just Cause Mobile
A hard pass

Humankind
The game looks fun, but I can't help but to feel the girl in the trailer was chosen to push some sort of sjw porpaganda.

New Mass Effect
Hopefully this makes up the terrible andromeda. Actually, I don't have high hopes after the recent depatures in bioware

Overall.... meh
IDK, almost every teasers and gameplays looked alright or boring. Nothing mind blowing. Plus, No Elden Ring. Fffffuuuu-

Darktide and Back 4 Blood and Sephiroth in Smash Ultimate were my highlights.

Having a Wait and See Approach with Mass Effect, Dragon Age, and Perfect Dark reboot.

Ark 2 reminded me a LOT of Turok.

And funny that I watched the Evil Dead movies for the first time in my life this year, and all of a sudden a video game is announced.

It's weird that bioware two future title are just being teased at this point, I'm guessing they were thinking Anthem was gonna be really big and most of their focus would be on that (like expansion and such) so they didn't really push for either DA or ME to be further along in development. DA is probably a bit further ahead but both of them will probably come out back to back within a year.

I’d love a fourth DragonAge, just to wrap up Solas’ story and that of my Inquisitor so happy to see that.

And more Mass Effect, suits me fine.

While I totally agree to see the new games in each franchise, I'm doubting whether or not it'll be good, especially with the latest departures from Bioware

Well, I liked Inquisition and my issues with Andromeda were based on the gameplay, not it’s story or visual presentation. So I’m fairly confident I’ll like these new offerings at least.

Also man I hope Feynrial is a party member for DragonAge, provided the story is still ostensibly going to revolve around the long unseen but oft mentioned Tevinter Imperium.

I had hoped so much for an Elden Ring trailer. It would have been a bandage on this shitty year. *sigh* just keep on hoping I guess. xD

Season was the most interesting thing there, but that's not saying too much.

The Back4Blood and Ark 2 trailers were just fucking embarrassing. Do they actually want me to take Vin Diesel in tribal gear seriously? I can't even take him seriously when he's dressed normal. And what was with the framerate and animation? I can't remember the last time a prerendered trailer looked this cheap.

And I'm already gonna predict Century: Age of Ashes is going to disappoint people, for as much as we like the idea of a dragon riding game, they always suck when we actually get one.

What's embarrassing about the Back 4 Blood one?

Perfect Dark Reboot

That actually makes sense. The last Perfect dark game came out in 2005, so it's not that surprising. You got to remember, a lot of the younger generation grew up on shooters like Gears of War and COD. Only those that grew up in the 90s and 2000s would remember Perfect Dark.

I am excited for the game called back 4 blood. We all know it's left for dead three. I know my brother and I are going to have fun with co-op sessions, if it has local split screen. Until this comes out, I suggest everyone just keep playing World War z as that is also a Left 4 Dead game.

Can't wait to play the new ghost n goblins. Always looking forward to more Evil Dead.

It's like Payday set in a fictional medieval setting. I have to wonder if this is multiplayer-only, or is there any story elements?
I've got my eye on this one, because I LOVED payday and payday 2 back in the day. So if they are going for that kind of vibe I'm definitely for it. Not as much of a fan of the potential PVP aspect of it, as that was one reason I enjoyed PD2, the fact it was PvE and we were all on the same side as humans, really reduced the amount of toxic behavior. So yeah, I'm hesitantly excited, but also a bit apprehensive. We'll see how it is though.

Can't say I'm surprised. The original never really got out of Goldeneye's shadow, and from many accounts that I've heard, the sequel kinda sucked.

I'm reminded of the Thief mod made for Doom 3 that has multiplayer. Never tried that; this might be interesting.

We all need to come to terms with the fact that Bioware is dead, and what we're seeing is EA dancing its stiffening corpse around to get us to throw money at it.

The fuck could they possibly do with a Just Cause mobile game???

Anyway, as a 40K noob I was interested in Darktide, but a four player coop shooter doesn't look like it'll give you the feel of "tiny insignificant Guardsman vs 1,094,239 crazed heretics" that I was expecting.

Mass Effect sounds mildly interesting, the same way I'm mildly interested in how AC or CoD will fuck up even more each year.

Was almost interested in that Perfect Dark announcement until it ended on the line "this is just the beginning." I swear I've heard that line 3 times in the 2 days from videogames already. Stop copying from the same textbook, you hackneyed ghouls! Ugh, it just feels all so incestuous sometimes, these writings.

Perfect Dark, eh tentative interest. Though i'd have to get it on pv and thats a tossup depending how annoying they make it requirement wise.


Monster Hunter Rise. A game I would be vastly interested in, if it came on something I could use a preferred controller with.


Ark 2, well if it follows from Ark 1, it'll take 6 or 7 years to reach a barely playable highly unrefined state barely help up by the novelty of the concept. I don't remember ever actually seeing Ark 1's trailer, but if the game design remains the same, anylone expecting vaguely cinematic like that is in for a shock.

Has it actually been confirmed that Perfect Dark is a reboot? I keep seeing this claim, but haven't seen it from a primary source.

As for people not being more familiar with the IP, I'm not surprised. It had a brief spark in the 2000-2005 period, with 3 games, only 2 of which are remembered, and of those 2, only 1 of which is good. Much as I like the PD world, that mostly comes from EU material.

As for Mass Effect, I'm kind of pissed at it. Not only does it seem to be taking place post-ME3 (setting anything in the Milky Way post-ME3 is a stupid idea IMO), but it seems to be based on the "destroy" ending. An ending that everyone seems to treat as being the 'good' ending for some reason I can't fathom. Much as I disliked Andromeda, if there absolutely had to be another Mass Effect game, I'd rather it be set there, or have BioWare just start a new IP if they want to cover sci-fi along with fantasy (Dragon Age) and sci-fa (Anthem).
