The Breath of the Wild sequel looks exciting, and the No More Heroes III reveal was a pleasant shock (please, please don't suck).

But for me, the most surprising E3 announcement was Spiritfarer, a game where you explore the world in a boat, build a miniature town, and have a pet cat. What I realized watching this trailer is that those three things - exploring, building, cat - are like ... my top three most-wanted game features. And I don't think they've all come together before.

(Keanu was great, but, no, the fact that Cyberpunk 2077 is hyped-as-shit is not a surprise. I know that it's going to be awesome.)
