Eidos Montreal isn’t the only Square Enix team participating in the event, however. Three other projects were mentioned. First, Square Enix confirmed Platinum Games will be attending to show more of itsupcoming action gameBabylon’s Fall.

The third project mentioned is Crystal Dynamics' already availableMarvel’s Avengers, which will share details about the upcomingBlack Panther - War for Wakandaexpansion.
Just because Square Enix only mentioned four projects by name doesn’t mean that it won’t have other surprises to share during E3 2021. Square Enix says that its E3 2021 lineup is “mostly under wraps for now,” so fans can expect some big surprises. The lack ofFinal Fantasy 16,Final Fantasy 7 Remake, or the rumoredFinal Fantasyorigins spin-off RPG are especially notable.
Those curious about what Eidos Montreal’s next game might be will be pleased to hear there are a variety of leaks and rumors surrounding the project. It’s rumored to be based on Marvel’s successfulGuardians of the Galaxyfranchise. Little is known about what kind of gameEidos Montreal’sGuardians of the Galaxywill be, however. Given the developer’s history of releasing single-player RPGs, it’d be a surprise ifGuardians of the Galaxywas anything else.
Square Enix fans will be able to find out everything the publisher will be announcing on June 13 at 12:15 pm PT. That doesn’t mean Square Enix won’t have other announcements as part of other E3 events, like Xbox’s press conference, or throughout the week, but forSquare Enix’s fans, this is the event not to miss.
