Personally, I’m most excited for Mount & Blade 2.
PC games have been getting progressively better representation at E3 this year. Looking around today, we couldn’t find a comprehensive list exclusively featuring this year’s PC games, so we made one. Let us know in the comments if we missed anything you’re excited about!
