Watch EA’s E3 Briefing Here Live!

Do you smell that? It smells like E3! Downtown LA is filled to the brim with Gears of War 4 posters, a giant Titan from Titanfall, and plenty of nerd excitement. Doesn’t it feel like Christmas? The festivities kick off today with the EA Play press conference (starting at 1 p.m. PST) which we expect will include the likes of Titanfall 2 and Mass Effect: Andromeda. Best of all, you can come watch the whole stream live with us above, while we liveblog the event below! So make sure to join the fun, keep refreshing the page for our updated commentary, and drop your reactions in the comments section below.

Aside from the previously mentioned big hitters, we’re also expecting a more in-depth look at the upcoming sports titles like FIFA (yay!), and even some more Star Wars talk. Hopefully we’ll learn more about the upcoming  SW: Battlefront expansions, and if we’re lucky, enough, we’ll get to see some footage of Visceral’s Star Wars title. It’s also safe to assume the whole conference will be rounded out with talk of their subscription service, EA Access. What other secrets will be revealed today? Let the predictions and hype begin!

This is most certainly an interesting year for EA as the mega-publisher has also also opted out of taking their usual (massive) spot on the show floor, and will instead host a fan-centric event at a different venue. We’ll of course keep you posted on everything that’s going on over there as well.

Make sure to also keep up with all of our live coverage of the Bethesda conference (which begins at 7 p.m. PST), as we’ll also be liveblogging all of that goodness in a separate post. Then tomorrow, check out the Microsoft and Sony briefings as well! Game on!
