Watch Ubisoft's E3 Press Conference Live - Will Avatar Game be Revealed?

UPDATE: Michael here.  Reader Adam Loncar pointed me to an Ubisoft press release promising "special guests that are certain to thrill attendees and web viewers."  It would certainly be awesome if Cameron showed up to help show off the Avatar game.  More as I get it!
Michael here.  Ubisoft is holding their E3 press conference on Monday at 5:00 PM, PST, and you can watch it as it happens via Ubisoft's official live stream.
Will the Avatar game be shown? MCV is reporting that it will be unveiled at E3.  The site reportedly spoke to Ubisoft's European Executive Director Alain Corre, who told them that “People will be dreaming about Avatar after seeing it at E3. People will have never witnessed anything like it before. This is an investment in technology we will be able to put into our future products.”

Referring to 3D technology, Corre said “This is a brand new visual approach to gaming and movies.  Hopefully, it will capture everyone’s attention. We know not all the gamers will be able to own that technology. But we’ll be able to get it to many of them. This 3D aspect will one day become must-have."

So far MCV seems to be the only source reporting that Ubisoft will be revealing their 3D technology - and the Avatar game - at E3.  I am unfamiliar with the site, so I cannot personally vouch for their credibility.  However, I do think there is a solid chance that we will see something from the game at the press conference.
