13 Last Minute Video Game Rumours For E3 2016

13. Capcom Will Reveal A "Back To Basics" Resident Evil 7

By far one of the most substantive and plausible E3 rumours is that Capcom will reveal Resident Evil 7, which after the mixed reception to 2012's sixth game, will reportedly employ a "back to basics" approach, moving away from the overt action of recent titles and returning the series to its survival horror roots.

How Likely Is It?: While this rumour has consistently shown up for the last three E3s and ultimately turned up nothing, the franchise is certainly due another entry within the next 12 months going by the usual release pattern, so it would actually be a major shock if E3 came and went without a single peep about the long-awaited sequel.

It's almost certainly happening, but then again, what Capcom call "back to basics" could differ substantially from what fans are hoping for. 9/10
