The showfloor schedule for EA Play has leaked early, suggesting a reveal of Mercenaries 3, Battlefield 5: Eastern Front and a new Star Wars game. This leak comes via Twitter user @AllGamesDelta.
The leaked image shows a schedule for EA Play. The show will open with Mass Effect Andromeda news, possibly a gameplay trailer or even a release date. Interestingly enough, Mass Effect Andromeda is listed for the Nintendo NX, a console that hasn’t even been announced yet. From there, a game called Star Wars: Imperial Commando will be shown. There will be a trailer for this new game, and is listed for the NX as well.
From there, it looks like EA will reveal Mercenaries 3. A sequel to Mercenaries 2 by the now-defunct Pandemic Games, Mercenaries 3 will feature the longest trailer of the show, clocking in at almost four minutes. This is slated for the PC, Xbox One and PS4 only.
After Mercenaries 3, EA will pull back the curtain on Battlefield 5: Eastern Front. We’ve seen confirmation that there will be a Battlefield 5 released this year, so EA will finally detail what we already know. It seems the setting will probably be somewhere in Russia or Eastern Europe based on the game’s title.
Wrapping up the show, EA will reveal new content for Star Wars Battlefront called Force Conflict. This could be a new DLC expansion for Star Wars Battlefront, but we’ll just have to wait and see what EA has to show us.
Lastly, EA will reveal Command & Conquer Tiberium. This will be a new entry in the Command & Conquer franchise, and will be coming to all consoles including the NX. Nothing is known about this game yet, so this could either be a glorious new entry in the war series or a burning pile of turds that was the free-to-play Command & Conquer.
The last thing of interest on the leaked document is down in the lower left corner. There’s apparently going to be a panel at EA Play called “VR_Mass_Effect_Andromeda.” Does this mean players can expect to see Mass Effect Andromeda in some sort of VR fashion? It very well could mean that if this leak is real.
All of this should be taken with several grains of salt. AllGamesDelta has leaked some major information in the past, but this still could be a ruse. We’ll definitely be keeping a closer eye on what EA does up until EA Play in June.
Another hint pointing to this leak being fake is the fact that Nick Earl is said to be presenting Mercenaries 3. Earl left EA in November 2015. Unless EA hasn’t updated this schedule, it’s not likely Earl would be there to reveal a game for a company he no longer works for.
So what do you think? Are you excited about any of these games getting announced? What do you think about Mass Effect Andromeda in VR? Do you think this leak is even real? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.
