There have been plenty of rumors on what games will be releasing next year, but it looks like someone might have dropped a bunch of information on upcoming games. Of course, it should be noted that the rumor is unverified and should be treated as such.
The same individual who posted the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Enchantress joining Injustice 2 leak prior to the official announcement is claiming that they have a bunch of information on a ton of highly anticipated games.
According to the leaker, Soul Calibur VI is coming with a Nintendo Switch specific guest character is making a return, Mother 3 is getting localized, Pokemon for Nintendo Switch is hoping to release next year, Devil May Cry 5 is coming and much more.
The game leaks according to the leaker (emphasism by author):
Resident Evil 2 Remake:
It is a third-person game. You should finally see something from it next year if they don't put something out around the very end of the year, but I'm hearing next year.
Devil May Cry 5:
This will finally be announced at PSX. Dante, Vergil, and Nero will all be playable in the game. I don't know if that will be confirmed at PSX in particular alongside the reveal, but multiple sources have informed me that all three characters are on it and you can play as them.
Soul Calibur VI:
I was told it'll be for PS4, PC, and Nintendo Switch. There was no Xbox One version mentioned to me. The game should be revealed by the end of the year and make its 21st anniversary at least. One trustworthy source told me it would be revealed at PSX. If the Switch version is not announced in a matter of fact way alongside it like multiplatform games do when revealed at a specific console's event, then it should be announced during the Nintendo Direct in January that I keep hearing about. The source who told me about the Switch version is different from the one who told me of the game's existence, I might add. They also told me that Link would return as a guest character on that version.
One of the reasons that Soul Calibur VI was never revealed for its anniversary last year in December, even though they were building up to a reveal even as late as the fall of last year was because they ran into technical issues that sent the game into a mini development hell of sorts. The thing I heard that was the cause or most likely cause was the implementation of some kinda moveset or style switching thing in particular (like having multiple movesets per character, weapons even for some from my understanding). Since that not working out how they wanted was such a big deal to its direction and draw to the game, delaying it until they either figured it out or decided to ultimately nix it was something they went back-and-forth on but was retained in a certain capacity.
Some other things concerning the game itself that I know about and can say is that Kilik is back and uses his staff moveset again, not the Weapon Master thing that everyone hated on SCV. He will have a new rival too. Gameplay and mechanically, Supers are back and as far back as July, there was some kind of universal mechanic like V-Triggers.
NINTENDO:
There has been pressure towards Game Freak to get Pokemon's 8th Generation out in hopes of a release next year. If you recall Pokemon Stars, that is (or was) real, but all it was was a Sun and Moon port to the Switch, used as an engine test tech demo thing.
Metroid Prime 4 should have something revealed with some in-game footage early next year from what I've heard. I'm hearing that Direct in January particularly. Bandai Namco is developing the game for Nintendo. I don't know which development studio.
There is some kind of new Animal Crossing that they hope to release next year too.
The Switch's Virtual Console will not be like how it currently is known to be like. There is some kind of a subscription service of sorts in the works.
Mother 3 is real. According to my source, it was completely localized and playable. The sad thing that I've heard is that it is being held back for some reason, which all I know has something to do with not knowing which month to release it in.
According to one of my sources, they claim that Square Enix is doing The World Ends With You 2 exclusively for the Nintendo Switch.
Blizzard is preparing a Hearthstone port for the Switch. I'm not sure when this will be announced due to the phrasing, but I heard about this when I went to Blizzcon.
The leak goes on to cover Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition Season 3 and Season 2 of Marvel vs Capcom Infinite.
