WalMart Canada might have leaked upcoming games and Bethesda’s reaction on Twitter is priceless
E3 is just around the corner and what could go wrong before this event full of surprises… right? Oh, wait, nevermind… Apparently, WalMart Canada ‘accidentally’ unveiled some of the biggest surprises of E3 2018. The retailer has recently released a list of games which will be available soon and boy oh boy, the list have some pretty big surprises:

Borderlands 3
Rage 2

Some of these games were already announced before but most of them are big surprises. However, in order to avoid giving misleading information, I would like to inform you guys that these some of these games are not officially announced. The Division 2 was already announced by Ubisoft, Borderlands 3 is an expected move and seeing the Assassin’s Creed name on the list is not surprising at all as it basically became the most efficient cow of Ubisoft; no offense!
After this leak (?), some of the developers and publishers started reacting to it on their on Twitter account. Rage team reacts to the leak in a funnier way:
Hey @WalmartCanada here are a few notes. pic.twitter.com/R1od2aTEMC

On the other hand, Pete Hines doesn’t seem happy about it at all… Well, can you blame him?
This is why we can't have nice things. https://t.co/ZhOHGsITfp

Go buy a Magic 8-ball at WalMart and ask it.

If this leak is true and these major titles are actually ‘leaked’ by accident, this year’s E3 will be a little duller. However, we are always excited about new games and their representations so other than the ‘surprise effect’, nobody actually lost anything. All in all, it is kind of funny too… Just like Bethesda’s reaction:
Dude.

We will have to wait a little bit more before we can get something official.
Until then, stay tuned for more… dudes!
