A sequel to the critically acclaimed metroidvania Ori and the Blind Forest might be shown at Microsoft’s E3 press conference later today following the alleged leak of numerous screenshots.
Ori and the Will of the Wisps has been rumoured a lot over the past year with the title originally being shared by reputable games source NerdLeaks last year. This time, some possible concept art screenshots—including a logo—have been shared online showing off a couple of environments and not much more.

The original reveal of the first game was one of the better moments of Microsoft’s 2015 press conference, and hopefully the developers behind Ori will be able to replicate that magic again for the sequel. As always, no matter how convincing they look, take these pictures with a grain of salt.
