What to Expect
The State of Play event will go live tomorrow at 4 p.m. EST and will provide an extended look at Rocksteady's next game, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. The upcoming co-op game will receive more than 15 minutes of coverage. Additionally, several indie and third-party titles will be showcased, with the highly-anticipated remake of Resident Evil 4 likely to make an appearance. The biggest reveal in the event will be the five new upcoming games for PS VR2.
The event can be watched via the official Twitch and YouTube channels, and more information is available on the PlayStation blog.
What Not to Expect
Major first-party games like Marvel's Spider-Man 2, Death Stranding 2, and The Last of Us Factions will not be showcased at this event. However, a previous leak suggests that Sony will hold its bigger PlayStation Showcase before June where people can expect the reveal of some of the first-party content. A showcase before June makes sense since Sony is expected to skip E3 2023.
PC Ports
PC players will also be watching these events closely for any PC port announcements. Currently, the only upcoming PS game confirmed for Microsoft Windows is The Last of Us Part 1, launching on March 28. No other ports have been announced but many players are eagerly waiting for PC versions of Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut, Horizon Forbidden West, and TLOU Part 2.
Sony’s State of Play event has gamers excited about upcoming games. While major first-party games may not appear in this event, the next PlayStation Showcase may give insights into the biggest upcoming titles. So, be sure to tune in tomorrow at 4 p.m. EST to catch the State of Play event live and see your anticipated game.
