Like everything else at the moment, E3 2020 has been officially cancelled due to coronavirus concerns, with Head of Xbox Phil Spencer recently announcing that a digital event will be held in its place for Xbox fans. Allegedly, Warner Bros. Games were planning to hold their first E3 press conference at the event too, and it would have included reveals for new Harry Potter and Batman games, as well as the next game from Batman: Arkham series developers Rocksteady Studios.
We're hearing this courtesy of Jason Schreier at Kotaku, who reports that three people familiar with the company's plans had shared the news. It's apparently unknown whether Warner Bros. will follow Xbox in holding a digital event later this year instead, or scrap the plans for something else.
The aforementioned Harry Potter game has been talked about for a while now, with a leaked video appearing to show footage of the game in action back in 2018. A recent job listing at Avalanche Software also seemed to suggest the game might be revealed in the near future. In the case of Batman, WB Montreal have been teasing a new Arkham game for some time now. We'll have to wait and see what happens.
Do you think we'll see these games soon? Tell us which game/s you're excited for in the comments below.

I wish we'd get a new Harry Potter game. While they might not have been the best, they were at least competent games that made us feel like a wizard (except the Deathly Hallows games. Only thing I felt like there was a child with a finger gun).
It'd be interesting to see what they do with a new one. I doubt we'd get a game where we play through all seven years, for instance.
