Nintendo's success found within the Nintendo Direct style of live broadcast has inspired many others to reveal upcoming game announcements in a similar way, especially in a world where E3 can't take place. Square Enix is the latest to follow the trend, with the freshly-announced "Square Enix Presents". The broadcast will take place on March 18th, and will last around 40 minutes, with the company teasing that fans will be able to see the next Life is Strange entry, a Just Cause mobile game, new footage for Balan Wonderworld and Outriders, and more.

Be sure to catch the stream on Square Enix's YouTube or Twitch channels, at 17:00 GMT, on March 18th, or you can keep up to date by watching our live coverage roundup.

Square was so much better before it merged with Enix. They don't care about classic Final Fantasies (1-6) and they really don't give a damn about Chrono Trigger. Quite sad.

No one starting an argument so wind your neck in princess.

You cant even have a joke and mention nintendo without its fanboys getting all pissy.

Oh it was a joke

Outriders is the only one of these games with any potential.

Super Mario RPG 2. Nintendo gave Ubisoft the rights to use Mario for the rabbids game. So it’s not inconceivable. Just really unlikely.

Tomb Raider needs to die. Unlikeable main character, and from what I hear it hasn't been good since the PS1 days.

Also, Just Cause...Mobile? Screw off with avaricious garbage.

Marvel's Avengers...BWA HA HA HA!

I'm only watching this to see if they comment on how much of a shitshow Balan Wonderworld is.

That demo.... I heard it was bad so had to give it a go myself - fukk me haha! (Pity, I had high hopes/NiGHTS vibes from it initially)
