Another major publisher has confirmed that it will make an appearance at E3 this year, as Square Enix joins the growing list.
The news comes from an interview with the Japanese publication Nikkei, where the company’s CEO, Yosuke Matsuda, has revealed that the announcements will be shared at this year’s event. Here’s what Matsuda had to say (translation via Siliconera):
“Outriders, which was delayed, was published April 1, 2021. I NieR Replicant will also be published this month. Final Fantasy VII Intergrade will be out in June.
We have several other games online, which we plan to announce at E3 2021 in June, so we look forward to those announcements. “
