Lots of meat on the fire

Perhaps it is the only certainty that over time it will remain alongside gamers, also given the arrival of the many cloud services, which most likely could definitely supplant the consoles. This is certainly the direction taken by the gaming market. It will take some time, and we will have to understand how the world of services will evolve. For the moment the PC Gaming market lives directly from the console one. There are many titles that will be released in the various versions and of these let's see what we can expect.

Surely the title you most expect (in general) is Cyberpunk 2077. The title of CD Projekt RED, which after being defined as one of the "main events" of last year continues to make the world dream, is an RPG set in a post apocalyptic future in pure Cyberpunk style. We are facing a triple A title that promises to be one of the most beautiful of the last generation. The software house has already confirmed that we will be able to see the title at work again and that new images and new content will be published, so the only hope is to know the exact release date.

Microsoft, unlike what happens with Sony (which will not be present at this edition), lives in a way more linked to the world of PC. Precisely for this reason, we expect something more from the conference of the American company, in addition to the news on its latest generation console. Three rumors and hopes circulating on the net, the most interesting is the one that sees Microsoft intent on working on the unification of environments Xbox with those PC. Hopefully a subscription Xbox Game Pass which can also be used on PC. This may not yet be the time to take this step, but hoping certainly costs us nothing.

There is not only the cloud, because the PC Gaming Show 2019 promises to be really rich in content, starting with Ori an The Will of The Wisps, Gears 5, Halo Infinite and much more. The presence of also bodes well epic Games, which after the worldwide success of his Fortnite is pushing a lot on the PC world and therefore who knows what he is preparing for the show. Same thing goes for the boys of Ninja Theory who should present their new title, or Rare than after the experience of Sea of ​​Thieves it is certainly one of the most desired software houses.

Many rumors also talking about an important announcement by Capcom, who could present his new Resident Evil 8 or more simply a remake of Resident Evil 3.

AMD Next Horizon Gaming

To attract our attention there is certainly the presence of AMD, which will conduct an event entirely dedicated to its production: Next Horizon Gaming. During this particular event, the company will most likely want to present the new Navi GPUs. This could obviously be the future of production from AMD, which wants to take part in E3 2019 firsthand to present its new graphics cards. The event will certainly not focus on the new graphics cards, which will probably be accompanied by the new Zen 2 CPUs as well as other content still unknown to us. The AMD conference is still very important to follow, because the company also supplies components to the new generation consoles, so it will be essential to understand what the future will be.

Will VR be a mere spectator?

The absence of Sony is certainly heavy to digest if we talk about Virtual Reality. Despite this, the world of VR will not be a mere spectator. Although important hardware announcements have been made, during this E3 2019, we expect a lot of news, since after the initial costs have been reduced, it seems that the viewers are starting to enter people's homes. Above all, the presence of a real dedicated conference underlines how much this new technology is now aiming to become a real "reality", close - we hope - to the definitive step of consecration.

Over the course of the event we expect to discover some new titles for Oculus Rift: For example Stormland by Insomniac Games, No Man's Sky VR, Lone Echo 2 of Ready at Dawn, and many others, because in reality there will be so many ads:

• Asgard's Wrath;
• Dirt Rally 2.0 VR;
• The Walking Dead Onslaught
• Blunt Force;
• Undead Citadel;
• The Elder Scrolls: Blades;
• Wolfenstein Cyberpilot;

The ones we have listed above are just the most anticipated titles, because there are really a lot of VR titles that will be released this year for PC, but some intriguing surprises and absolute novelties cannot be excluded. This new lifeblood also comes from the desire for software houses such as Ready at Dawn e Insomnica Games, who are venturing into this complex new reality.
