While it was confirmed previously that Capcom would have a dedicated presentation during E3 on June 14, the exact details – such as its specific timing – were unknown. That’s no longer the case. Capcom has confirmed that its E3 2021 showcase is set for Monday, June 14, at 2:30 PM PDT.

What can we expect to see at the show? Monster Hunter Rise and Resident Evil Village are mentioned, so DLC announcements for both seem likely- though the latter definitely comes as a surprise, since Capcom has previously given no indication that it has post-launch content planned for the survival horror game. Will it be a story expansion or related to The Mercenaries- or perhaps related to the upcoming Resident Evil Re:Verse? We’ll find out soon enough.

Meanwhile, two upcoming games, Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin and The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles are also confirmed to be making an appearance during the presentation, so at the very least, we’re likely going to see new trailers for both.

Beyond that, the hope is that we will see some new announcements as well, and sure enough, leaks do seem to suggest that. Resident Evil Outrage has been leaked relentlessly, and it has been alleged in the past that the game would be announced not long after Village’s launch. Meanwhile, Dragon’s Dogma 2 is also allegedly in development, and fans will surely be hoping for that to be announced as well.

We’ll be covering all of it, of course, so stay tuned for more details.
