In addition to Horizon: Zero Dawn Sony's E3 2015 game conference paraded a host of upcoming additions to its already first class roster of titles. Below we have a run through of The Last Guardian, Final Fantasy VII, and Call of Duty: Black Ops III.


The Last Guardian

Finally, after years of development hell, Sony gave us a first glimpse PlayStation exclusive The Last Guardian. The game had originally been intended to be released on PS3 back in 2007. Director Fumito Ueda proudly sat in the audience as the trailer showcased the story of a young boy and his giant feathered friend. The setting of the adventure looked beautiful but we cannot expect anything less from the director who is responsible for Ico and Shadow of the Colossus. The Last Guardian is expected to be released sometime in 2016.





Final Fantasy VII

The Final Fantasy VII remake promises to deter from just the standard updated graphics to suit the high definition era. The game was originally released in 1997, and there looks to be a complete overhaul within the fantasy, including new gameplay mechanics, and a possibility of an altered storyline. Fans of the series will hope that the classic isn't altered too much, but we wait in anticipation to see what Square Enix will serve up.






Call of Duty: Black Ops III

Although not PlayStation exclusive, Activision decided to debut their Call of Duty: Black Ops III multiplayer trailer during the Sony press conference. PlayStation users can expect a host of exclusive access for the shooter including extra maps and other content that will be announced in due course.
