And people said the "E3" period doesnt have hype anymore.
We knew Sony was gonna have a State of Play during this period.

While im not going to get a PSVR2 im still curious to see what they are bringing to fore.

 

[balls of snow]

God of war deserves its own 20 min slot so it wont be there.

Stray, Forsaken and maybe maybe Ffxvi will show itself.

 

[jroc74]

Well, there it is.

Keeping expectations in check tho.

 

[ParaSeoul]

 

[SakkanartSilentJealousy]

New FF16 trailer please.

 

[JaksGhost]

If they are focusing on third-party and VR that must mean their PlayStation Showcase is more than likely going to be a "true" PlayStation Showcase with just their first party stuff. This is a good way to get announcements like Stray out of the way.

 

[Dibils2k]

We’ll have some exciting reveals from our third-party partners, plus a sneak peek at several games in development for PlayStation VR2.

instant downer

 

[Sub_Level]

Hoping to see some cool motherfucking VIDEOGAMES

 

[T-Cake]

You lot will be laughing on the other side of your faces next week when it's more Volcano High. I'm going in with zero expectations of anything decent especially as VR is mentioned.

 

[Borowski_1]

Now, if GoW is not in this, when and where will they show?

 

[Valedix]

Got a link to said leaks bro?

How are you gonna have a 30 minute show is what I dont understand. IIRC, in the first 30 minutes of the 2015 show, Sony had a horizon demo, a the last guardian demo, and both the shenmue and FF7 reveals.

These shows should be getting bigger. Gaming is more profitable and bigger than ever but the shows are getting shorter. I really dont understand where all the money is going.

Alot less talking and alot more games hopefully.


As for where the money is going.....you think its cheap funding studios like ND, GG, SSM, Insomniac etc etc.

 

[MasterCornholio]

30 minutes of "announcements and updates", with some "exciting" third-party reveals and a first look at PSVR2 games

I think they said 3rd party because they wanted us to know we are getting new stuff from them. However they can still show already revealed 1st party titles again per the wording.

 

[tmlDan]

so there seems to be confusion but the actual blog says: "We’ll have some exciting reveals from our third-party partners, plus a sneak peek at several games in development for PlayStation VR2. Watch over at Twitch or on YouTube starting 3pm Pacific / 6pm Eastern / 12:00am CET."

There is no mention of first party games, unless it's potentially VR. if GoW is really a September launch I bet they have a SoP for GoW only sometimes this summer.

I do share the sentiments in GAF, i wish they would just put it all into one show.

 

[Sub_Level]

FINAL

FANTASY

XVI

 

[Elder Legend]

Give me God of War.

And Bloodborne 2 while you are at it or a remaster is fine too!

Most likely will be FF16 release date. Mark my words.

 

[kyliethicc]

 

[sncvsrtoip]

just give me gt7 vr

 

[Swift_Star]

It’s finally happening!
Lognor can finally, FINALLY, put his worries to rest.

 

[NeonGhost]

God of war deserves its own 20 min slot so it wont be there.

Stray, Forsaken and maybe maybe Ffxvi will show itself.

It will get its own show closer to release

 

[Represent.]

Now, if GoW is not in this, when and where will they show?

Imo its definitelly not here, I mean Barlog came out like 3 weeks ago and said they're not ready to show anything yet. I suspect it will get its own dedicated State of Play just like TLOU 2, Ghosts, Horizon, etc

 

[DeepEnigma]

God of war deserves its own 20 min slot so it wont be there.

They will announce release date, unless they have one planned for July with a release date in that. But if it shows up in this one, they will have a release date, and then closer to release they will do its own gameplay showcase.

 

[Borowski_1]

It will get its own show closer to release

even closer to release?

It's almost June and the game doesnt have a release date

 

[Captain Toad]

It's a State of Play guys, not a full showcase. I wouldn't be expecting too much here.

 

[IntentionalPun]

Time to get overhyped and then disappointed, the cycle that never ends!

I'll personally wait for a "showcase" to get hyped, SoP's are POS's.

Ok I guess we have to wait and see hat happens then. Don’t think they will show us GoW a month before release so we should have another SoP for it earlier than that.

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

Ok.

 

[DeepEnigma]

That was on 4/20. It has been rated in Korea.

 

[SlimySnake]

Now, if GoW is not in this, when and where will they show?

Why do we even need to see more of GoW? It looks very similar to the first. We know what it plays like. The trailer showed off several new combat elements and areas they all look very similar to the first. And thats by design.

All this new GOW footage will do is spoil probably the best setpiece in the game. I mean do you really want the Thor or Odin reveal/boss fight to be spoiled on a shitty quality State of play strea,? The game isnt doing some fancy next gen stuff. It looks and plays pretty much the same. At best we will get a GOW 1 to GOW2 style game. More refined and more action packed. Why do we need to see more of more of the same?

 

[NeonGhost]

Ok so the last game didn’t get a release date till 3 months before and you could get it here

 

[Sub_Level]

Thing is, we know that the FFXVI trailer is done and is due to be shown in the Spring. As in before June 20. So appearing at this show is a very good bet.

 

[Bartski]

Stray leaked release date confirmation of July 19th

People just want a release date, dude.

 

[Belthazar]

Well, hopefully this one is good.

 

[Draugoth]

My bets:

• Street Fighter VI/ RE4
• Final Fantasy 16
• Horizon PSVR2 Game
• PSVR2 Release Date
• Other games

 

[Heisenberg007]

 

[Borowski_1]

it's gonna be a bunch of indies and VR stuff

big pass for me...

 

[Punished Miku]

Keeping my hype low, but this is cool. I really didn't expect anything from them until Summer Ad Fest.

I'm not in the market for PSVR2 since I just got a Quest. But it's going to be pretty neat for people getting into it. If all you've played is PSVR1, it's come a long way since then.

 

[Borowski_1]

People just want a release date, dude.

this

i just wanna know when it's coming

not even need a new trailer

 

[Urban]

 

[Anchovie123]

State of Play huh? I guess this means the "Showcase" will be in August/September?

 

[Heisenberg007]

SOP is mostly about third-party partners. May get one or two sneak peaks for first party. Mentioning it here before the certain people start complaining soon after the show Excited nevertheless.

My bets:

• Avatar gameplay ()
• FFVII Remake Part 2 announcement
• Street Fighter 6 (console exclusive?)
• Final Fantasy XVI
• Dragon's Dogma 2 (less likely)
• Stray
• Tchia
• PS VR 2 games (third-party)
• PS VR 2 version of at least one big third-party game.

This is a 30 minute advert.

Not an E3 show.

They do SoPs every quarter or so of every year to fulfill 3rd party marketing deals.

Their E3 style showcases are now in September.

 

[Topher]

 

[lh032]

15 minutes Deathloop DLC.

 

[Heisenberg007]

State of Play huh? I guess this means the "Showcase" will be in August/September?

Pretty much.

• June 2, State of Play for third-party games (just before Xbox show)
• June 9, something first-party related for Geoff's show (maybe Hideo Kojima's PS Studios game)
• God of War Ragnarok State of Play w/ release date (soon after Xbox's show)
• August - Gamescom (something like Final Fantasy XVI)
• September - Big first-party PlayStation Showcase
• God of War Ragnarok release.

Sony will be rolling over the next few months.

You're talking into the void, my man.
