Regardless of why it's been happening a lot lately, It's not like the whole industry is doing it. I think some studios and publishers know how easily they can announce games with the internet, yet became slightly self aware of how archaic early announcements have become. Given by the fact that studios like Sony's first parties, Bethesda and many others are still maintaining radio silence.
