Sony is finally ready to show some games players will be able to enjoy on those shiny, expensive new PS5 Pro consoles. State of Play is back.
Fans have been waiting quite some time for the next State of Play after its most recent rendition took place earlier this year at the end of May. Now, it appears Sony is ready to look forward after some big missteps this year. This presentation will focus on “news and updates on more than 20 upcoming PS5 and PS VR2 games from studios around the world,” so it’s really anyone’s guess on what is to come. But given what we don’t know about it (which is almost everything), there’s just as much potential for this to be a huge presentation as it could be an underwhelming one.
PlayStation and its fans are hoping for some big excitement after the disastrous Concord launch, which was followed up by the stellar launch of Astro Bot, a potential game of the year winner. But what’s next?
This event could potentially be big for reveals, with titles such as Ghost of Tsushima 2 and The Last of Us: Part III undoubtedly in the works. But it’s also the first time we could see whatever Insomniac Games is working on after the massive leak earlier in the year, including Spider-Man 2 DLC or the Wolverine game.
There’s plenty Sony could show off at this next State of Play that we don’t know about yet. Rumors include remasters of Horizon Zero Dawn and Days Gone, but there are plenty of studios at work on unannounced games, such as Santa Monica Studio, Guerrilla Games, Bend, and more.
State of Play will broadcast live on PlayStation’s Twitch and YouTube channels on Sept. 24 at 5pm CT.
