We are now just minutes away for the next State of Play stream where Sony set to show off what’s up next for PlayStation gamers. Earlier this summer Sony broadcasted a massive hour-long showcase loaded with some particularly exciting announcements involving the Metal Gear Solid 3 (Delta) remake, Spider-Man 2, Alan Wake II, and more, and, while today’s event will surely be less eventful than that, we have high hopes. It all start at 2 p.m. PT/5 p.m. ET and you can follow along down below.
PlayStation September State of Play showcase
Sony hasn’t given out any numbers in terms of how long today’s show will be, but we do know it will focus on “updates to previously announced games coming to PlayStation consoles” as well as both indie and PS VR2 titles alongside “major upcoming titles” from its third-party partners. It sounds like there won’t be any first-party titles mentioned in today’s show, but we will see.
While just about every PlayStation gamer has nothing but Spider-Man 2 on the mind right now, the limited edition console and pre-orders are already live on that one, so we aren’t expecting anything overly substantial for that. But here’s to hoping for another gameplay demo or some kind of new reveal from the upcoming web-slinger.
It looks like we will be seeing something from third-person co-op shooter Helldivers II and most folks are looking towards the upcoming Alan Wake II as well as Ubisoft’s soon-to-release Assassin’s Creed Mirage as well. Something for Call of Duty Modern Warfare III perhaps? Arizona Sunshine 2, Resident Evil 4 VR Mode, and some other previously unveiled PS VR2 titles? Probably.
More on the MGS3 remake would be just wonderful if you ask me – we haven’t really seen much more than a few screenshots and a CG trailer at this point, but the release date on that one is still a ways out.
Either way, it all starts very soon and you can follow along below:
This State of Play broadcast will focus on updates to previously announced games coming to PlayStation consoles. From indie and PS VR2 highlights, to major upcoming titles from our third-party partners, our latest show has something for everyone. It all begins Thursday, September 14 at 2pm PT / 5pm ET / 10pm GMT
