– 1 PM PT
– 4 PM ET
– 9 PM in the UK
– 10 in Europe

In terms of Nintendo news, we may finally get an update on Starlink: Battle for Atlas, which was announced last year. Just Dance 2019 is also a likely bet. Beyond that? We’ll have to wait and see.

THQ Nordic won’t be attending E3 2018 this year, the company confirmed today. Rather than showing up for the expo, the publisher has decided to be home for the 2018 FIFA World Cup.

THQ Nordic does intend to be present for Gamescom 2018. Upcoming titles as well as some unannounced games will be shown there.

We’ve included the full press release from THQ Nordic below.

Nintendo tends to be quiet regarding its E3 plans until the show is rather close, but this year, the company shared some news pretty early. Last week, it was announced that Super Smash Bros. Switch and Splatoon 2 will both be seeing their own tournaments.

Polygon spoke with Nintendo’s Bill Trinen about the Super Smash Bros. Invitational 2018 and Splatoon 2 World Championship. Trinen noted the following:

Today, Nintendo announced two tournaments for E3 2018. The Super Smash Bros. Invitational 2018 and Splatoon 2 World Championship 2018 will both be taking place during the expo.

With these tournaments having been made known, Nintendo has now opened its official E3 2018 website. You can access it here.

E3 2018 runs between June 12 and June 14. Expect Nintendo’s site to be updated over the next few weeks and months, as well as during the show itself.

Bethesda has indicated that the company wants to support Switch in the long term. We may have an understanding of just how true that is come June.

The Bethesda E3 2018 Showcase, announced today, will take place on June 10 at 6:30 PM PT / 9:30 PM ET. Further details on the event will be sent out at a later date. For now, we primarily have the announcement video below.

Will Wolfenstein II be out on Switch before E3? If not, will the game be showcased during the presentation? How much of the news will be Nintendo-related? We’ll find out in about three months.

We’re about four months out from E3 2018. GES, the event planning and marketing company involved with the show, is getting ready and has published the exhibitor manual for the expo. Based on information pieced together from that, we now have preliminary floor plans for this year’s E3.

Nintendo will run its regular booths at the show, sitting on the opposite side of Sony in the West Hall. The Big N has once again reserved the 411 theater similar to past years.
