Whoops…
The E3 Expo is the biggest video games event of the year, as Sony, Microsoft, Nintendo, and every major games developer in the world shows off their latest must-haves.
We’re already aware of some of the biggest up-and-comers, from The Last Of Us 2, to Anthem, to Red Dead Redemption 2, but normally we don’t get word of some of the more top-secret releases until the actual E3 comes around, which runs this year from Tuesday 12 to Thursday 14 June.
We have to emphasise the word “normally” here, because an eagle-eyed Tweeter noticed that American super-market chain Walmart (or at least the Canadian wing of it) updated the pre-order section of their video games section, and it was FILLED with previously unannounced and unconfirmed games:

On top of the list that @Wario64 listed, there is also the Final Fantasy VII remake, and a sequel to The Division, one of the biggest video-game releases of all time back in 2016.
Whether or not this page update is more of a wish-list than anything else is unconfirmed, the company behind the first Rage game did tweet Walmart with some corrections, none of which were actually a denial that the sequel is on the way…
