Rocket League

The phenomenal car-powered soccer-like game is coming to Switch during Holiday 2017. Developer Psyonix brought it to PC, PS4, Xbox One previously, and the Switch version will come with all the content of those versions and some exclusive content, including toppers like Mario and Luigi hats, and new cars. Psyonix also said there will be cross-platform play, though this won't work with PS4.

We knew we were getting a sequel to one of the Wii's most notable RPGs back when the Switch was first revealed, but we can now expect Xenoblade Chronicles 2 to come Holiday 2017. The game features the familiar vast environments and massive enemies of the previous games.
Fire Emblem Warriors

The hack-and-slash spinoff of the iconic Fire Emblem franchise is coming to Switch in Fall 2017. The Fire Emblem Warriors trailer showed us a few familiar faces like Chrom from Fire Emblem Awakening; Corrin, Ryoma, and Xander from Fire Emblem Fates; and Marth from Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon.
Metroid Prime 4
Metroid Prime 4
It's been 10 years since we had a proper Metroid Prime game, but we now know that another one is on the way for Switch! No release date or gameplay footage was shown, so there's reason to believe that Metroid Prime 4 won't be coming any time soon, but at least there's one in development.
Kirby
Kirby
Kirby's next adventure will continue the tradition of cutesy side-scrolling environments and gobbling up enemies to gain their power. In addition, there is four-player co-op. The game simply known as Kirby will release sometime in 2018.

Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle
Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle
The upcoming turn-based strategy cross-over game Mario and Rabbids was first revealed at Ubisoft's E3 2017 press conference, but we got to see it again during Nintendo's presentation. It seems to share gameplay similarities to XCOM and retains the colorful, lighthearted nature of the Mario universe.
Super Mario Odyssey
Super Mario Odyssey
Super Mario Odyssey topped off this year's Nintendo Direct presentation with a wild gameplay montage. Mario was tossing Cappy left, right, and every which way to become and take control of objects and enemies. We saw the game in all sorts of environments from the sprawling New Donk City, to an open field where Mario took control of a dinosaur. We'll be able to experience all this craziness when the game hits the Switch on October 27 this year.
Metroid: Samus Returns
Metroid: Samus Returns
Moments after Nintendo's presentation, Metroid: Samus Returns was revealed as an exclusive 3DS game. It's essentially a re-imagination of Metroid 2 which came out for Game Boy back in 1991.

All The Games Sony Showed Off At Its Press Conference
Sony's E3 conference is over for another year. It brought with it a fresh look at God of War, some new Call of Duty: WWII gameplay, and more. You can see a roundup of all the trailers here and all the news here. We've also gathered up all the games that appeared at its conference in this gallery. And remember to keep an eye on GameSpot's E3 2017 hub for all the news, impressions, videos, and more coming out of the convention this week.
Call Of Duty: WW2
This year's Call of Duty goes back to World War II for the first time in 10 years. It follows a young soldier from the US 1st Infantry Division and includes iconic WWII moments like the D-Day invasion of Normandy and the Battle of the Bulge.
Days Gone
The next game from Sony Bend (Uncharted: Golden Abyss), Days Gone, is an open-world action game set in a post-apocalyptic world. If the new E3 trailer for the third-person game is anything to go on, it's a brutal world out there, and we're excited to learn more.
Destiny 2
The sequel to Bungie's online multiplayer shooter, Destiny 2 sees the Guardians in a rough spot. The Tower has fallen and is under siege from an invasion force, and it's up to you explore far-flung areas of the solar system to fight back. Plus, it's set to include a number of updates and new features, and it's even coming to PC.
Detroit: Become Human
Quantic Dream and famous developer David Cage return with Detroit: Become Human, a PlayStation 4 exclusive featuring robots who rise up against humans. We learned in the new E3 trailer that one of the leads will be played by Grey's Anatomy's Jesse Williams. No release date has been announced.
God Of War
God of War is the latest entry in the long-running action game franchise developed by Sony Santa Monica. While the game shares the same name as the first entry in the series, it's actually meant to be a soft reboot to the story of protagonist Kratos.
Horizon Zero Dawn: The Frozen Wilds
The next game from Killzone developer Guerrilla Games, Horizon: Zero Dawn is expanding this year with a story expansion called The Frozen Wilds. It's no surprise that more content is coming, as Horizon was a big hit critically and commercially, selling more than 3.4 million copies.
Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite
Marvel Vs. Capcom: Infinite opts out of the over-the-top 3-on-3 fighting from its predecessor and goes back to its roots with 2-on-2 fights. It also introduces Infinity Stones, a new mechanic that provides you with unique abilities in battle.
Monster Hunter: World
The Monster Hunter franchise returns to consoles with Monster Hunter: World. Like the recent 3DS installments, you can scale walls, leap attack onto monsters, and cook food. It also appears to have a multitude of new elements, like a grappling hook, flares, and a machine gun-like firearm.
Shadow Of The Colossus
A remaster or remake of the critically acclaimed 2005 game Shadow of the Colossus is in the works. The reveal was sparse with details, though the game will have current-gen visual enhancements. It's said to release at an unspecified date in 2018.
Spider-Man
Spider-Man is an action game based on the titular webslinger developed by Insomniac Games, the studio behind Ratchet & Clank and Sunset Overdrive. It's set to release sometime in 2018.
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim VR
If a Switch port wasn't enough, critically acclaimed RPG Skyrim is also coming to PSVR. You'll be able to do all the regular Skyrim favorites--use magic, shoot arrows, wield weapons--from within virtual reality, though it's not yet clear if there will be any changes or updates to the game in this version.
Uncharted: The Lost Legacy
Uncharted: The Lost Legacy is a standalone chapter in the Uncharted series where you play as fan-favorite character Chloe Frazer, as she embarks on an adventure alongside mercenary Nadine Ross in search of a mystical treasure known as The Tusk of Ganesha.
PSVR Games
Sony pushed VR pretty hard at its conference this year. As well as Skyrim VR, it also revealed a Final Fantasy fishing game called Monsters of the Deep, a new VR title from Until Dawn developer Supermassive, and a new shooter called Bravo Team. Check out the full list below, or our gallery of all the PSVR games at Sony's E3 2017 conference.
Pre-Show Games
Sony had so many games to show off this year at E3 that it had a pre-show filled with reveals. The critically acclaimed independent RPG Undertale is making its console debut when it comes to PS4 and PS Vita this summer. Ni No Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom got a new story and gameplay trailer. Knack 2 was also said to release on September 5 and priced at $40. The following is the full list of games featured during the pre-show:

All The Games Ubisoft Showed Off At Its Press Conference
E3 2017 rolled on today with Ubisoft's briefing this afternoon. Arguably the best part came at the end when Ubisoft finally announced Beyond Good & Evil 2. But that wasn't the only reveal, as we also learned about a new pirates-themed multiplayer naval battle game called Skull and Bones, while Ubisoft also took the lid off multiple VR games. You can see a roundup of all the trailers here and all the news here. We've also gathered up all the games that appeared at its conference in this gallery. And remember to keep an eye on GameSpot's E3 2017 hub for all the news, impressions, videos, and more coming out of the convention this week.
Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle
After many leaks, Ubisoft formally announced Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle. An intriguing-looking turn-based tactical game, Kingdom Battle launches on August 29 for Nintendo Switch.
Assassin's Creed Origins
Ubisoft didn't announce anything new about Assassin's Creed Origins, but we did see a new trailer that provided a glimpse of the game's world. It showed a lot of the animals and people that you'll encounter, too. Since Origins is set in Egypt, the Nile and its surrounding ecosystems will significantly affect gameplay. Lions and other creatures can be released from their cages to wreak havoc on outposts, while you can ride camels and chariots to get around.
The Crew 2
A new trailer for The Crew 2 was released during Ubisoft's E3 briefing, showing the game's sprawling open world and a bunch of vehicles, from cars to monster trucks to light airplanes.
South Park: The Fractured But Whole
A new trailer for South Park: The Fractured But Whole premiered during Ubisoft's briefing. Of course it was a lighthearted trailer, poking fun at bad X-Men movies and more. After delays, the game launches on October 17.
Skull And Bones
One of Ubisoft's big surprises was Skull and Bones, a new pirate-themed naval warfare game from Ubisoft Singapore. The game has a shared, systemtic world, according to Ubisoft. Players can engage in 5v5 battles as they try to fend for themselves or team up with other players.
Beyond Good & Evil 2
At last, Ubisoft re-revealed Beyond Good & Evil 2, the much-anticipated follow-up to 2003's Beyond Good & Evil. It takes place before the birth of Jade, the protagonist of the original game. No release date was announced.
Far Cry 5
Ubisoft showed off new gameplay for Far Cry 5 during the company's briefing. We saw some intense shootouts; a bit of the eerie, unsettling story; and your canine companion.
Steep
Ubisoft's extreme sports game Steep might not taken the world by storm, but it was popular enough, and it continues to get new updates. The next big expansion, an Olympics-themed add-on, is coming later this year.
Starlink: Batte For Atlas
Basically no one saw this one coming. Starlink: Battle For Atlas is Ubisoft's first big step into the toys-to-life market. The sci-fi spaceship-battling game uses real-world toys that attach to your controller. Pretty cool.
Just Dance 2018
With more than 65 million units sold, Just Dance is a juggernaut, so it was no surprise when the next entry, Just Dance 2018, was announced at Ubisoft's E3 event. The dancing game launches in October for all the usual platforms.
Transference
Ubisoft teamed up with Lord of the Rings actor Elijah Wood's film studio SpectreVision for a creepy-looking VR game called Transference. It's coming in Spring 2018 for VR platforms and traditional consoles.
