Took the right kool-aid this morning and bought into the E3 Hype? For PC gamers looking for E3 announced games with a pre-order discount, you won't be disappointed. While publishers are still clamping down on pre-order deals compared to years past - there are some a few notable hot deals out there while the buzz is at its peak.
Perhaps the best example is Total War: Warhammer II at GamesPlanet. The game received a new trailer and a September 28 release date at E3 and is now available at various retailer, including Steam Store for $59.99.
Thanks to favorable currency conversion rate, you can pick up the Steam key at GamesPlanet for £37.99 (5% off the full £39.99 list price in the UK) - this translates to about $48 in USD, a solid 20% discount with accompanied pre-order bonuses. We've broken the deals below down by retailer and ordered by release date. If you spot a dead deal, let us know and we'll update accordingly.

From above, Warner Bros. Middle-earth: Shadow of War has its best price on PC at DLGamer at a 22% discount. Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor was a "sleeper hit" back in 2014, and it'll be interesting to see if the sequel replicates that success.
GMG also has a horde of E3 announced games with the various degree of incentive from as little as 12% off to the usual 20% off discount. These discounts may not be as high as the other two aforementioned deals, but they are in many cases the only discounts available for those titles on PC (e.g., you won't find a deal on The Fractured But Whole anywhere else legitimate as of writing).
No expiration date exist for the deals above if you're not the type to play Day One - we'd suggest sitting back to wait for bigger price cut months after release (and of course when reviews are in).
