Life is Strange: True Colors, the next instalment of the saga developed by Deck Nine will also occupy an important part of the gala, while more details could be revealed on Life is Strange: Remastered Collection, a compilation that will bring together the first games of the franchise, using the True Colors graphics engine.

Continuing with the superhero genre, there have been lots of rumours around a new title based on the Guardians of the Galaxy, reportedly being developed by Eidos Montreal since 2017, when Square Enix and Marvel signed the agreement that allowed to bring the Earth’s Mightiest Heroes to consoles and PC.

Some other games that could also be worth mentioning are NEO: The World Ends With You, Final Fantasy 14: Endwalker, Forspoken, NieR Re[in]carnation, and Final Fantasy 7: The First Soldier.

To follow all the live announcements and more surprises prepared by Square Enix, you can watch their world premiere broadcast through their official channels on YouTube and Twitch.

Since the presentation will only last 40 minutes, some of these titles may not have a big spotlight during the Square Enix Presents.

Many of the surprises by this developer could also be reserved for conferences of other companies such as Sony, with whom Square Enix has had a great alliance in the last few years.
