Sony has officially confirmed this week’s State of Play.
They made this announcement on PlayStation Blog:
Tune in live this Thursday for 60+ minutes of news, gameplay updates, and announcements from game studios across the globe.
February’s State of Play will spotlight eye-catching third-party and indie games headed to PS5, along with the latest from teams at PlayStation Studios.
This State of Play is getting broadcast at 2pm PT / 5pm ET / 11pm CEST. At 60+ minutes, it’s definitely the longest State of Play Sony has ever had.
A lot of rumors have gone around about the event, including what games will take the spotlight. Notably, Sony officially confirmed they would show some of their own first-party games as well.
Since this is not a PlayStation Showcase, we should not expect any new AAA first-party announcements. But Sony set precedents for some updates for the AAAs they already announced.
So maybe we’ll see Marvel’s Wolverine, Marathon, or Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet on the show. But it’s more likely that Horizon Hunters Gathering is showing up for a proper reveal.
