Many highly-anticipated games, such as The Legend of Zelda Wii U and Uncharted 4: A Thief's End, which were originally scheduled to be release this holiday, have now been pushed back to 2016.

UK retailers have now warned that if there are no surprises at E3 - especially with respect to games coming out this year - then there won't be any growth in the industry.

"We are holding out hope that E3 will deliver a few surprises," one retailer told MCVUK. "There are seven press events this year, which gives cause for optimism. But how many of these games will be out this year? E3 must deliver if we want to end the year in growth."

"We’re very excited about what’s planned for E3 and our roster of exclusive games for 2015, which includes Rise of the Tomb Raider and Halo 5: Guardians," said Xbox UK marketing boss Harvey Eagle. "We also have the big triple-A titles coming to Xbox One this year, such as Call of Duty: Black Ops III, FIFA 16 and Star Wars Battlefront, and unique cross-play experiences like Fable Legends via Windows 10. So it’s going to be a great show and an even better year for gamers."
