COVERING E3 2018 DAY 3 PC GAMING SHOW
We now go directly to the PC Gaming Show to see what's brewing to our none console players? More battle-royale games? A new MOBA maybe? Half life 3 finally? Let's get this show on the road.
Satisfactory
The conference starts with host Sean "Day[9]" Plott as he welcomes everybody to the Pc Gaming Show 2018 and also introduces his co-host, Frankie Ward. Right off the bat, Sean states that there will be over 30 games to be featured within the conference, which means that this is going to be a long ass post. Coffee Stain Studio the people behind Goat Simulator is the first to open the show, with a trailer for their new game Satisfactory. Its a game I could only describe as "Minecraft but not 8-bit." It seems like a first-person perspective engineering building game. An alpha for the game is planned in a few months.
Neo Cab
Next is Neo Cab, the debut title from developer Chance Agency. Neo Cab was announced earlier this year, and the easiest way for me to describe it is that's its an Uber Simulator combined with a cyber-noir twist.
Mavericks: Proving Grounds
Battle Royale is everywhere now and Automaton is joining the party with Mavericks: Proving Grounds. What Automaton is claiming though is that the biggest difference that it will have from PUBG and Fornite is the number of players that could play all at that the same time. The beta will kick off its 400 player last-man-standing games on August 18, 2018.
The Forgotten City
One of the most popular mods created for Skyrim is now officially a game. The Forgotten City is set to release in 2019.
Star Control: Origins
Well, I'm a lot late to the party as it turns out, I had absolutely no idea Starcontrol is having a reboot. Star Control: Origins puts the player in charge of manning Earth's first interstellar ship. You explore galaxies, traverse thousands of planets, and create alliances to fight against a dangerous alien. The game launches on September 20, 2018.
Hunt: Showdown
Hunt: Showdown is getting a huge update. New items, new weapons, and a new monster are all getting added into the mix as well. The update should be available summer of 2018.
Archangel: Hell Fire
Archangel is having a sequel with Archangel: Hellfire. The game will now include multiplayer. The game will be released July 17, 2018.
The Sinking City
Well, this is something I've never heard before. A Third-person action detective game.
The Sinking City seems to be a Lovecraft 20's era America -inspired adventure. An open world game with a focus on investigation rather than the action. It seems very interesting, however, no official release date was actually announced.
Warframe: The Sacrifice
Warfare is getting an add-on with The Sacrifice. Not much is known about the game, as the trailer showed provided more questions than answers.
Best of Japan On PC SEGA
Perhaps one of the biggest announcements of the night, Sega is bringing a bunch of its titles to PC. The list includes, Valkyria Chronicles, Bayoneta, Shenmue 1 and 2, The Yakuza Series and more.
Killing Floor 2: The Summer SideShow Treacherous Skies
It's Tripwire Interactive's time to shine as they reveal Killing Floor 2 brand new update The Summer SideShow Treacherous Skies. The update adds a new map, airships, new weapons, a community map, a new character DLC and Endless Lockdown. the update will be released free on June 12, 2018.
Man Eater
This is a game, you've never thought you wanted until you've actually heard of it. It's a Jaw simulation game where you actually play as the shark. As it turns out it's a single-player action RPG, where you, the shark actually have a skill tree to customize. I'm not even kidding. I'm not gonna lie I kinda want it. Maneater is set to release on Windows PC. No release date as of yet.
Bravery Network Online
The following three games are a showcase from three new gaming studios. First, we have Gloam Collective's unveiling of what seems to be a turn-based versus game with an art style almost similar to Scott Pilgrim Vs the World. Bravery Network Online will be released sometime in 2019.
Morning Star
Next is a first-person farming simulator game with a twist, it seems to be set on a dark apocalyptic world where you actually plant data. I'm confused... It's like Harvest Moon meets Bioshock or something.
Overwhelm
Do you like Pixels? Do you like Gore? Do you like "Nintendo Hard" games? This might actually be the game for you. it's basically a 2D action platformer mixed with Doom aesthetics anf if you're curious about it you can go ahed and buy it as it is available now.
Jurassic World Evolution
A trailer for Jurrasic World Evolution was featured narrated by the one and only Jeff Golblum himself.
Stormland
We got our first Oculus Rift game of the night in the form of Stormland, an open-world VR game by Insomniac Games and Oculus. In this game casts you as a robot gardener that got destroyed by some kind of Storm. You are on a mission to restore your body back. the game seems to boast a huge environment and massive terrain. A released date has yet to be announced.
Night Call
The next game on the list is another Uber car simulator with noir mixed into to it.Night Call is due out in 2019 for both PC and currently-unspecified consoles.
Sable
The next game of the conference might actually be one of the most beautiful looking game I've ever seen in E3 so far. Its another open world game but damn the art style is just something that doesn't leave your mind. It's set on a desolate desert land filled with broken ruins and Mayan looking symbols. Nothing much is known about the game but I am genuinely interested. Another game to look forward too.
Star Citizen
A short trailer for Star Citizen was featured.

Realm Royale
We got ourselves another new battle royale game in the form of Realm Royale. Chickens are somehow involved in this one. Don't ask me, I didn't make it.
Ooblets
Cuteness enters the conference as the trailer for Obblets is shown. The game seems to be a weird hybrid of Animal Crossing, Pokemon with a little bit of Harvest Moon mixed in. No release date for this one yet though.
Anno 1800
Ubisoft BlueByte shows up at the PCGaming show to introduces its city-building simulator called Anno 1800. BlueByte Executive Producer Burkhard Ratheiser and Community Developer Bastian Thun then took the stage to talk about the game.

Hitman 2
IO Interactive announced that Hitman is making a come back last week, and today the studio's game director Jacob Mikkelsen joined us at the PC Gaming Show to show off some gameplay and the Miami level. It's more of the same as the last hitman games, but its a good thing as the Hitman games always have offered a polished gameplay. You'll throw more objects than ever before through and be able to dress up as a signalman and shoot cars off the road. Hitman 2 is due out on November 13, 2018.
Well, I guess PC gaming Show strategy for e3 was just to bombard the fans with a bunch of games. This was a very exhausting conference, and I'm not too sure if liked it, it just seemed to be too much information in such a short amount of time that you don't actually get a breather to process everything. Regardless a lot of great games were announced, next stop for e3 we finally get to see what we have Sony has for us.
Thank you very much for reading and I hoped you enjoy.
