E3 2013 Lineup Watch: Next-Gen Exclusive Titles from Ubisoft, Confirmed Title Lineups for Majesco & Tecmo
With E3 2013 being less than a fortnight away, more publishers developers are revealing the lineup of games that will find their way on to the much-awaited three-day event.
Leading the pack is Ubisoft, which has confirmed five titles that will be making an appearance on the event. Most notable are Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag and Watch Dogs, two confirmed next generation titles.
Gamers will also get a chance for a sneak peek at Rayman Legends and South Park: The Stick of Truth, two titles which have been announced and delayed even as far as last year, though the delay did Rayman Legends fans a lot of good, as 30 more levels and new bosses are heading their way once it gets released.
Finally Ubisoft will also feature Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Blacklist. Just Push Start reports that the mentioned games will find their way on the show floor, where those who have been invited will get a chance to play the games.
"This is a pivotal moment for the video game industry, and E3 is the opportunity for us to share our vision for the future," said Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillermot in a statement quoted by Videogamer.
"We have many incredible games in development, and we're especially excited to share more on our next-gen titles, which will deliver more connected, immersive and interactive experiences to our fans."
Catch Ubisoft's press E3 press conference, happening on June 10 at 3 p.m. PDT, where guests can get the first look at the upcoming lineup, some next generation exclusives, and new titles.
Majesco brings 5 titles to the table
Majesco partnered with publisher Little Orbit to deliver five game titles that will be made available for display and play at the E3 2013.
In a press release, Majesco announced that one of its awaited games, Zumba Fitness World Party, which will be hitting the Xbox One, Xbox 360, through Kinect, Wii U, and Wii, will be showcase in the event.
Gaming titles include Phineas and Ferb: Quest for Cool Stuff, to be made available on the Xbox 360, Wii U, Wii, Nintendo 3DS, and DS. The game is based on the Emmy Award-winning series in Disney.
Projects partnered with Little Orbit and slated for release on the Wii U, Wii, 3Ds, and DS are Monster High and Barbie Dreamhouse Party, which will also find its way on the E3 2013.
Most noted in Majesco's lineup is that it only has one game that is slated for release on the PlayStation Network for PlayStation 3, Young Justice: Legacy based on the animated series shown in Cartoon Network, which may be good news for PS players who are also DC fans.
Tecmo's lineup revealed
Among those who have confirmed their lineups early is Tecmo, who has five games slated for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PS Vita. Noticeably, the company hasn't made any hints of exclusive next-generation titles, though this may be a surprise that they are saving for the tradeshow event.
According to CinemaBlend, Tecmo's lineup is led by the ultra-violent zombie-based Yaiba Ninja Gaiden Z, where ninja swords, weapons, cyborg ninjas, and zombies collide. Another fighting game title that will break the scene is Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate.
Banking on Tecmo's specialty in historically themed gaming, Tecmo will also feature Dynasty Warriors 8 and Toukiden, while the RPG game Atelier Meruru Plus: The Apprentice of Arland will cap off the lineup.
