EA kicked off things off with its EA Play event on Saturday, June 10, and, boy, was it full of great gameplay footage. We got tantalizing looks at FIFA 18 and Need for Speed Payback with wicked gameplay trailers, and got a big gulp of multiplayer in Star Wars Battlefront 2

We also learned Madden 18 is shaking up the franchise with its first-ever playable story mode. You play a young prospect as he struggles to make it into the NFL. Called Longshot, the mode’s trailer will give you goosebumps.

Finally, a new IP called Anthem was revealed. From the team behind Mass Effect and Dragon Age, EA said we’re in for an even deeper dive during Microsoft’s press conference on Sunday, which takes place at 2pm PT/5pm ET/10pm GMT.
