Today's E3 presentations have passed and there's a couple of things to mention, though most of it likely won't be a surprise to people. Obviously not a complete list. Just the stuff that caught my eye.
Tomb Raider: There was a stage demo of Lara scaling an icy cliff followed by a gameplay montage trailer. Nothing really new to show, if you're interested in ryona that is. Just some new areas shown as well as reaffirming what already exists, such as the bear and wolves.

Stage Gameplay
Horizon: Guerrila's new game involving robotic dinosaurs in a post-apocalyptic world and a female lead. This title was actually
leaked awhile back. It seems it hasn't changed much from those rumors.

Gameplay
X-COM 2: This game was announced a while ago but we're getting some gameplay this week. Some of the enemies are capable of grabs and special finisher/KO animations like they were in the first game. You can also apparently change your squad members' gender on the fly, so you can run into combat with a squad full of females quite easily.

Stage Demo (at 11:03 a berserker alien quickly incapacitates a female squad member by knocking her into an armored truck)
Gears of War 4: Not too much is known about this. Though the gameplay footage shown features a male and female soldier exploring the ruins of some town before being set upon by creatures, apparently called "Pouncers". One of them manages to jump on the female soldier but she is quickly saved by the player. Whether you can sit there and watch, or if she'll just kick out automatically, is still not known. The player character also gets jumped but the trailer cuts out before anything too interesting happens. I wouldn't be surprised if you get to choose which one of the two you play as.

Gameplay (most of the video is them exploring the town, they are attacked by the creatures at 5:12, and the female soldier is pounced on at 5:45)
Final Fantasy 7 Remake: A full on remake of Final Fantasy 7. This could hopefully provide some new situations to put character favorites Tifa, Aerith, and Yuffie through.
