The Latest Information on Sony’s Next PlayStation Event: State of Play Leaks
Rumors about Sony’s next presentation are circulating again, so it’s not surprising. Last year, we had a substantial new-gen showdown with September’s PlayStation Showcase. It featured Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 and Marvel’s Wolverine.
This time, speculation suggests that the PS5 will be focusing on the PSVR. We’ve previously seen you leaked specs as well as a controller reveal. Here’s what we know about this event.
PLAYSTATION STATE of PLAY ANNOUNCED TO GRAN TURISMO 7 – JANUARY 31, 2022
Sony has released its first State of Play conference in 2022. This time it is focused on Gran Turismo 7. This conference promises “over 30 minutes” of new PS5 footage and is exclusively focused on Polyphony Digital’s upcoming racing sim.
Past Presentations
Six presentations were seen so far in 2021, but not all of them featured State of Play branding. While February and September presented a more comprehensive range of topics, others provided updates on specific titles as well as deep dives into a single title. Here’s what we have seen so far, usually spread over a few months.
- February 2021 Presentation
- April 2021 – Ratchet & Clank Presentation
- May 2021 – Horizon Forbidden West Presentation
- July 2021 Deathloop Presentation
- September 2021 – PlayStation Showcase
Where to Watch
Sony’s State of Play broadcasts can be viewed on their Twitch or YouTube channels. We don’t think it would change for the next one.
What Games will be there?
It’s hard to say right now. Although Sony set the standard by providing deep dives into first-party games, Deathloop’s presentation showed that third-party games were also available.
We’re still waiting for updates on a few games and the rumored PSVR gaming games. Here’s what this State of Play might look like.
- Astro Bot New Entry (Rumoured)
- Final Fantasy 16
- Ghostwrite Tokyo
- God Of War Ragnarok
- Gran Turismo 7
- WipEout
