Bethesda: Sunday, June 9 @ 9:30 PM EST
While Bethesda has already revealed a major game in Fallout 76, the company’s past E3 press conferences have included several big games, such as Dishonored 2 and Wolfenstein: The New Colossus, so there may still be surprises in store.

Devolver Digital: Sunday, June 10 @ 11:00 PM
Devolver’s press conference last year was a bit on the wild side, which is appropriate because it’s at the end of the day and everyone’s delirious. The publisher appears to have similar plans for E3 2018, as it’s already apologizing for whatever antics it has in mind.

Ubisoft: Monday, June 11 @ 4:00 PM EST

PC Gaming Show: Monday, June 11 @6:00 PM
The PC Gaming Show is a wildcard conference every year. With no official company affiliation, it’s a mystery what games and announcements will come from it up until the point we’re watching. Past years have been very focused on what is specific to PC gaming, so whether or not it will have anything to offer you will probably depend on whether or not you actively play games on your computer.

Sony: Monday, June 11 @ 9:00 PM EST
PlayStation has already confirmed plans to focus on four games for its show this year, including The Last of Us: Part II, Days Gone, Spider-Man, and Death Stranding. Other potential games appearances include Sucker Punch’s Ghost of Tsumisha, Spyro: The Reignited Trilogy, and the Medievil remake announced at PlayStation Experience in December.
