A state of play around PS5 and PSVR 2 seems inevitable and the noose is tightening. New information has just fallen, Sony’s event is gradually being confirmed.
Gradually, rumors about the imminent arrival of a new PlayStation event around the PS5 are thickening. According to rumors from the corridors reported by PlayStationLifeStyle a few days ago, it’s a famous (ex)insider who has returned to the charge to add his grain of salt.
Third-party PS5 games the focus of a new event?
It really is this weekend The Snitch
In fact, without warning, Snitch has stated that a “reliable source” had told him that a major PlayStation event (State of Play?) would be happening “very soon” and that it would be about “third-party games” PS5. On the other hand, the insider did not give a date or even a window of distribution. Earlier rumors spoke of an event for the month of March or shortly before.
But although we don’t know when it will happen, little by little the Sony event is being confirmed and now seems inevitable. It would be a perfect answer to the competitor Microsoft, which will set up an Xbox Direct in a few days and is already planning big announcements, especially in relation to Starfield, in the coming months.
Expecting big announcements?
According to the latest information, this next State of Play would therefore not deal with exclusive t itles straight from PlayStation Studios, but would rather be dedicated to third-party games. If big titles like Final Fantasy 16, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, Silent Hill 2 Remake or Stellar Blade could well make an appearance there, it could also be that we have the right to make new announcements, exclusive or not. . Like the recently unannounced Silent Hill, which could also be some sort of demo.
Many games are coming in 2023 and some still don’t have a release date, like Dragon Dogma 2, Avatar Frontiers of Pandora or Alan Wake 2. Remedy has also been increasing the pressure on social networks lately. Others are the subject of more and more rumors and could very well use the event to make themselves known. Otherwise, Sony may be content to give us a small showcase of the next big releases confirmed on PS5, as we’ve done in the past.
But anyway, until nothing is formalized, we can only theorize. So we will have to wait.
