Everyone owes Giant bomb Jeff Grub apologizes. He was absolutely right – no surprise – that Sony is holding an event this month ahead of Summer Game Fest and the Xbox Games Showcase, but it will be the smaller State of Play.
On Wednesday, Sony confirmed that it will have a State of Play presentation on Thursday, May 30.
Immediately, the company tempered expectations, announcing that it would be a 30+ minute presentation that would provide “live updates on PS5 and PS VR2 titles, as well as a look at PlayStation Studios games arriving later this year.”
Let the speculation begin
No one knows exactly what games PlayStation will show or what the company's announcements will be, but that doesn't mean we can't speculate.
The announcement of this upcoming State of Play follows news that a new Astro Bot game is on the way, with sites like IGN speculating that the game could be part of the presentation.
We could also get a first look at the PS5 Pro console and announcements about it God of War: Ragnarok is coming to PC, continuing Sony's campaign to strengthen its presence outside of the PS5/PS4 ecosystem.
There's also a slight chance (hopefully) to see more of Insomniac's highly anticipated games Wolverine game, a possible look at what was leaked Poison game, or Marvel's Spider-Man 2 DLC.
Ah, the possibilities.
We'll continue to go into this game mode with the lowest expectations: Sony usually keeps its most important announcements to its PlayStation Showcase events.
However, PlayStation gamers and fans are hoping we'll get some major announcements, even though Sony has already told us not to expect any major releases for the rest of 2024.
Again, we have to wait and see. until then, you can check out reactions to tomorrow's state of the game in the gallery below.
