Following a first look at the third-person action/adventure Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare, PopCap Games confirmed that a sequel to its popular ball-launching puzzle game Peggle would be coming later this year – though no platforms or features were unveiled yet.  We should know more in just a few months’ time.

DICE gave a hint of one of the next projects it’s working on, with a brief trailer for the forthcoming Star Wars Battlefront.  Again, no details were mentioned, other than it will utilize the company’s super-charged Frostbite 3 technology.  

Finally, DICE had one more surprise up its sleeve – gameplay footage for Mirror’s Edge II.  It features the heroine, Faith, getting a tattoo over her right eye, as well as bits and pieces of first-person action, including a close-up fistfight with a guard.  No platforms have been announced, but it’s likely to be for Xbox One and PlayStation 4.

We’ll have more information on these titles soon.
