Not only do gamers tune in to The Game Awards every year to see which games win each award, but they also watch the event for special world premiere game announcements. There's at least 10 world premieres that will be shown at The Game Awards 2019, though a leak may very well reveal all of them, if it is to be believed.
This leak comes from 4chan, so fans should take it with a massive grain of salt. However, there have been enough legitimate video game leaks from the 4chan that it can't be ignored completely. There's another reason why fans should be highly skeptical of this supposed Game Awards 2019 leak, though, but first let's take a look at the supposed leak.
According to the leak, The Game Awards 2019 will see the reveal of the long-rumored Batman: Arkham Legacy, a Crash Bash remake, a Banjo-Kazooie remake called Banjo-Redooie, PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale 2, remakes of the first two Tony Hawk's Pro Skater games, Metroid Prime Trilogy for the Switch, Sly 5, Grand Theft Auto 6, new gameplay for Breath of the Wild 2, and Phoenix Wright revealed as the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate DLC 5 character.
Besides this lineup being something that would blow even the likes of E3 out of the water, one of the claims made in the leak has already been proven false. Along with the aforementioned announcements, the supposed Game Awards 2019 leaker also claimed that the Resident Evil 3 remake would be revealed at The Game Awards 2019, with an unknown release date. On the contrary, Capcom announced the Resident Evil 3 remake during the recent PlayStation State of Play presentation, and it even confirmed the game's April 3, 2020 release date in the process.
This calls the rest of the Game Awards 2019 leak into question, and it's far more likely that it's completely fake than it's legitimate. However, some of the things claimed in the leak have been rumored from other sources as well, including the Tony Hawk's Pro Skater remakes, the new Crash game, and more, so it's possible some of the Game Awards 2019 leaks listed here will still turn out to be true.
The Game Awards 2019 is set to take place at 5:30pm PT.
