Bethesda E3 2018 Predictions

Image result for bethesda e3 2018Thinking back to the mind-blowing announcement of a new "Fallout" title coming the same year as its E3 reveal makes gamers all the more excited every year for what Bethesda has in store for them. I believe they have had a solid track record, specifically with single player games and I think 2018 and the future alike look bright. Here are my predictions for what Bethesda will show off at their E3 press conference. Be sure to let me know in the comments below your predictions.




Elder Scrolls: Legends
The free-to-play card game from 2017 will be brought up in two forms at this E3.
I believe Bethesda will reveal new content for "Elder Scrolls: Legends." This expansion or expansions will presumably begin this holiday season; I'm calling September.
Seeing as it is a perfect fit for a device on the go already, the Nintendo Switch comes off as a perfect platform for this game to be ported to. I believe Bethesda's partnership with Nintendo's new platforms with titles like "Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim" and "Doom" will extend this year with this card game making its way onto the Switch's e-shop.

Elder Scrolls: Online
"Elder Scrolls: Online" has been systematically updated since lauch with new expansions and I believe more is on the way. With a release date of some time this December, I say "Elder Scrolls: Online" will get a new expansion.

Prey
"Prey" came out last year and pleasantly surprised those who played it. E3 2018 is the time to show off the length of the title's life with new DLC. I predict Bethesda will reveal story DLC for "Prey" with a release date of this December.

Rage 2
Originally the result of a leak, "Rage 2" is officially on the way and is confirmed to make a presence at E3. Seeing as it is set to be released sometime in the early months of 2019, there is no doubt Bethesda will show off gameplay and explain details of what that and the story and premise as a whole entail. A release date will probably not be given however.


Fallout
The aforementioned support Bethesda has for the Switch would only suggest that their other large-scale role playing series must be on the way. While "Fallout 4" may or may not seem to be too much for the platform at first glance, I truthfully think it will make its way over after all. Bethesda proved "Skyrim" and "Doom" work and the very new "Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus" will be out very soon. With that in mind, it'd be hard to believe "Fallout" isn't going to be released on the Switch as well. When? I say it's coming in October.
In terms of the series' life on other platforms, there is bound to be a "New Vegas" style "Fallout" release sooner or later. Seeing as "Fallout 4" has been out for three years, it is time. I don't think this will be a 2018 title; however, I do see Bethesda giving us a reveal trailer of this spin-off of sorts for "Fallout" with 2019 at the end.


Starfield
With trademark renewals surfacing the internet lately, it is all but confirmed that a title called "Starfield" will have an official reveal soon; what better time and place than E3 2018. "Starfield" is apparently a triple A title similar to that of "Elder Scrolls" and "Fallout" and is said to have a sci-fi open world. I believe Bethesda will properly introduce gamers to "Starfield" at E3.

Quake
Image result for quake"Quake Champions"  isn't over with yet. The shooter will see continued support with Bethesda revealing new content for this game as they will with a few of their other games as services.

Doom 2
2016's "Doom" brought the old-school shooter back to relevance. I believe it is more than likely that a sequel, simply titled "Doom 2" gets revealed at E3. A release date this November will conclude the trailer that will show off more frantic gunplay and heavy metal music. I want to think it is going to come to Switch; however, I don't believe it will day and date, much like "Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus."
