Fans can stay tuned for additional Activision announcements,
including Crash Bandicoot® N. Sane Trilogy news, next

“Activision’s E3 2018 slate is all about giving fans what they
want – hands-on experiences with their most-beloved game
franchises,” said Tim Ellis, CMO of Activision. “Call of Duty:
Black Ops 4 delivers gritty, grounded, all-out combat in an
incredibly deep multiplayer experience that players can jump into
at the show; Destiny 2: Forsaken invites players to
experience the frenetic pace of the all-new 4v4 mode, Gambit;
Spyro Reignited Trilogy gives fans first hands-on gameplay
with the totally remastered experience; and there’s more exciting
news still to be announced!”
Hot off the heels of the most-watched game reveal in Call of
Duty® history, the title that offers more ways to have fun with
your friends than any Call of Duty before, Black Ops 4 comes
to E3 to give fans a new hands-on experience with the game’s
multiplayer mode, including a new map debuting at the event.
Black Ops 4 features grounded combat, along with new
levels of customization and tactical gameplay, and a variety of new
weaponry, maps and modes for the ultimate Black
Ops multiplayer experience.
The game features the return of the iconic Pick 10 system, along
with a series of innovations in weapon controls, combat flow,
health regeneration and player movement. Black Ops
4 features a combination of new and returning Specialists,
each with their own unique weapons, equipment and playstyles.
Players will be powerful alone, but devastating as a team working
together. Attendees are invited to play the Black Ops 4
multiplayer mode on PlayStation® 4 and PC in Activision’s
booth #1001 in the South Hall, and on PlayStation® 4 in
PlayStation's booth #4322 in the West Hall.
Following the reveal of Destiny 2: Forsaken earlier this
week, Bungie, High Moon Studios and Activision will showcase a
new mode for the franchise called Gambit. Gambit is a 4v4 hybrid
mode that merges PvE and PvP experiences into an epic battle. It’s
a new way to play Destiny 2, offering something for all players to
enjoy, appealing to those who thrive on the competition and
unpredictable elements of PvP gameplay, while seamlessly blending
the collaborative and cooperative elements of PvE. In addition, the
franchise will debut hands-on with three of the brand-new Supers,
the ultimate expression of power in the game. Attendees are invited
to play Destiny 2: Forsaken’s new mode Gambit, on
PlayStation® 4, in Activision’s booth #1001 in the South
Hall and in PlayStation's booth #4322 in the West Hall.
Fans will have a claw-some time at E3 this year with playable
levels of Spyro® Reignited Trilogy at the show. Spyro
Reignited Trilogy at E3 is the first chance that Spyro-maniacs
will be able to glide to new heights, unleash fire-breathing
attacks, and explore lush environments all in HD graphical glory!
Fans will enjoy reliving some of their favorite Spyro experiences
from 20 years ago in this remastered trilogy that features improved
environments, updated controls, brand-new lighting and recreated
cinematics - all mapped faithfully from the originals.
Stay tuned for additional Activision announcements, including
news about Crash Bandicoot® N. Sane Trilogy.
