After EA announced its press conference would be replaced by multiple live streams at E3 2019, a number of other publishers have been encouraged to reveal their own plans.
Bethesda is the latest one, confirming it will be returning to E3 this year to host its annual video game showcase. Here's the rundown from the Bethesda website:
E3 is coming, and on Sunday, June 9 (5:30PM PT), Team Bethesda returns to Los Angeles for our 5th Annual Bethesda E3 Showcase. It’s going to be a hell of a night. We have got an in-depth look at DOOM Eternal plus much, much more.
In celebration of the event, Bethesda is also planning to invite more of its fans with official invitations. More details - including how to register - will be shared soon. The social media hashtag for this years even is #BE3.
Based on the announcement, it seems we'll be getting an in-depth look at DOOM Eternal. This game was previously announced for the Switch and multiple other platforms last year.
Are you excited for this year's E3? Expecting any other Switch announcements from Bethesda like previous years? Tell us below.

What about Elder Scrolls6?
A new Fallout?
DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM
Fallout on Switch? I'd be content with a New Vegas port, but something built from the ground up for Switch would be ideal.
Fallout on Switch would make my life.
Fallout 77 announcement
Man, I hope we get another port of Skyrim. Then we'll know the Switch has made it.
Also NV. Please. And Prey. And Dishonored. More Wolf and Doom. Two tacos and a Dr Pepper. Rage 2... If possible. Im not greedy.
Bethesda RPGs have been increasingly less RP, so I'm not exactly thrilled at the prospect of another TES or Fallout game.
Skyrim: Potato Edition
I hope to see more Switch games from Bethesda soon. More Elder Scrolls ports for the Switch.
Fallout 76 coming to switch haha
Fallout 3/4 on Switch would make my year!!!
@Li_N_K that game won’t be ready doe another five or six years.
@PhilKenSebben didn’t they announce that mobile spin off called blades of something?
Just bring Fallout to the Switch already.
I hope to see The Evil Within 2 and Rage 2 announced for Switch.and 2019 release dates for Doom Eternal and Wolfenstein Youngblood.
I would buy any Fallout game except 76 of course!
Just give us Fallout 3 GotY, Fallout New Vegas Ultimate Edition and the most unlikely Fallout 4.
However I doubt that they could event fit Fallout 4 on a cartridge!
Brink please ☺
Man, Bethesda is boring! Can't it just be tgs already. Or another Nintendo direct.
Introducing creation engine 1.5! Half the glitches of Skyrim with a day one patch double the size of the game itself!
Do people actually care? I mean, Fallout 76 is a unfinished, refurbished, soulless game. I love The Elder Scrolls, but I'll never buy a game from Bethesda before checking several in depth reviews again.
Has anyone said "Oh whatever they bring out I'll get on my high powered overclocked PC" yet?
Whatever happened to the Elder Scrolls Legends card game that was supposed to be out on the Switch last year? https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2018/06/bethesda_brings_the_elder_scrolls_legends_to_switch
I've all but given up on a Fallout game for the Switch, but I'd still like to be pleasantly surprised if it was happening.
TES Legends at long last, perhaps? I've even attempted a sneak peek on Android, but the game demanded almost a gigabyte of extra download, and it was back when I was still on my Galaxy A7/16.
Otherwise, I'd be mostly holding out for Arcane stuff. TES Online folks still have storage-themed doubts, and pre-Skyrim TES games have mythical odds on any console.
@AlphaElite not before Skyrim VR for Nintendo Labo.
Rip and tear! Very excited to see more on Doom Eternal!🙌
Doom Eternal is all I care about
I need to see what Starfield looks like. I've been waiting for Bethesda to announce this for 5 years before we got it at E3 last year. A Space RPG from BGS is one of my dream games. Fallout 76 was clearly them being experimental and hopefullythey learn from the mistakes they made with that game.
@Li_N_K - Elder Scrolls VI is years away. Doom Eternal, Elder Scrolls Blades, and Elder Scrolls Legends were announced for Switch at last year at the Bethesda E3 conference. Personally, I'm hoping for the announcement of more Switch ports. Prey, Fallout series, Dishonored series, The Evil Within series, or maybe even Rage 2.
@WiltonRoots
Well if you want bugs fixed, you'll need player created mods.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but hasn't EA not actually done actual E3 press conferences for a long time? They have a real E3 booth, and I don't believe that's changing this year, but their conference was always Sunday, outside the actual (paid) E3 conference. Technically Microsoft/XBox's conference isn't actually an E3 event either, but a separately hosted event outside (but they participate in E3 itself, with a massive floor booth.) So for EA this isn't really a change, they're just finally killing off their horrendous non-E3 conference and replacing it with the pre-recorded stuff. Bethesda's Sunday show is technically not E3 either, so no change, but they also do floor space at the event.
So far the only one that's ACTUALLY not doing E3 remains Sony. Which remains just as bizarre as always. Skipping the conference makes sense if PS5 isn't ready to unveil, but not having floor space remains bizarre.
I'm still hoping the gaps created by Sony's exit and others downscaling makes room for some sidelined players to have a bigger show. Some kind of Sega show, a bigger Squeenix show would be great.
I'd love to see a Vegas port.
All I wanted this year was Doom Eternal news, so Bethesda's conference is almost sure to satisfy me.
Doom Eternal and Elder Scrolls VI!
would love to see Fallout 3, 4 or NV ported to the switch. I think oblivion HD remaster could be interesting too.
"this years even is #BE3." - Missed a t on event. Still, no harm. Typos happen, so does bad grammar. People mostly don't speak as proper grammar would be.
I don't always catch Nintendo's E3, because I sometimes have other things that are more important. However, I do enjoy the E3 streaming here, and the livechat. A nifty community event.
if i were you i wouldn't expect switch footage of doom eternal yet. as a matter of fact, i'm pretty sure the switch version will be delayed because of how hard it must be to make this game run on switch.
Now if only we can get a Quake reboot that is a successor to Quake 1 with its bases and castles.
@LOZ_Master95 They're not doing Doom Eternal on Switch as a port after other platforms release, they're doing Switch as a primary platform with the others, so it's being developed for all hardware simultaneously. No need for delays since Switch's needs and oddities are discovered and resolved at the same time as any PSXBox oddities (or weird nVidia/Intel/AMD driver issues on PC.)
@Bermanator This post requires a "MEGA-Like" button, because a single like is insufficient.
After Fallout 76, there's nothing I want from their internal studio. But I wouldn't mind some news on games like Rage 2, or Doom Eternal. I'd even be happy about some ports of less recent games, like Prey.
That being said, it's a toss-up on whether I bother. Bethesda is becoming infamous for announcing things way to early, and grossly overhyping things. I still have hope for their external studios. But not in them, or their marketing.
Sure will be exciting to hear about Bethesda porting Skyrim to the Google Stadia...!
@Heavyarms55 The sage bet of a port is they can't shove micro transactions in. Then again, Nintendo wouldn't like that so much as they have only just started it with mobile gaming, themselves.
@Jayofmaya Bethesda isn't the kind of company I would instantly assume wants to do tons of micro-transactions. They aren't EA.
@OnBeingHuman I am with you!
While this is an odd comment to put on a news post about a company that ISN'T doing this, I'd like to point out a LOT of companies are going the route Nintendo's started going back in 2014. We're getting a significantly lower number of stage-floor presentations than we did ever. And even though PlayStation won't have an E3 presence, I would not be surprised if they had a State of Play/knockoff Direct around that time.
No kidding but i would genuinely pay double for a remake of Morrowind made for the Switch on timed exclusive.
