Jeff Grubb: State of Play coming soon "in a month or so, maybe sooner", PlayStation Showcase coming "likely before E3 time."

This is kind of a "no shit" prediction.

Sony has a State of Play every few months and we are due.

They also have a Showcase around E3

Now that the Activision deal is likely dead for Microsoft, I think it's safe for Sony to start announcing their games

I hope the SOP is not low key. Hope that showcase brings the goods though. Not just showing Titles for this year but next year too.
Want to finally see Little Devil to come out.
 
No doubt Jeff Grubb has insider information but he gets no credit for this one. Horizon DLC and FFXVI come out in April and June, respectively, so yeah no groundbreaking scoop here.
 
I was kinda coping hoping for an actual showcase within the next month; before the end of the fiscal year. No lie, my expectation for one whenever it does come are already in high. Sony's been hilariously quiet about first party games, particularly next-gen only ones. Waiting to see Spider-Man 2 has been long enough, but if we're talking April-May for an actual showcase, there's no excuse not to reveal a gameplay-oriented look at an extensive slate.
 
We have to wait that long for a showcase? I guess I'll be fine.

I do have a ton of games to play till then.

Jeff did say they've been holding announcements back so i expect some more games to come this year.
 
"Before E3" would mean between April 1 and June 1, which most likely means immediately after the CMA announces the final decision about Activision / MS on April 18.

Jim Ryan, you son of a gun!

Looking forward to it and seeing new games.
 
For this month they'll focus on PSVR2.
After that it's obvious they'll start marketing and announcing new games.
I also expect a showcase in late spring, it will be enough time for PlayStation studios to prepare the next round of announcements with 2023/2024 games.
Right now the big question is if TLOU Online, Helldivers 2 and other possible surprises are scheduled for the end of the year.

Seriousely tho would be about damn time, they've been quite for way too long (thankfully this wack Acxti/MS deal is coming to the end seems, so no more excuses for staying quite).

I hope they will have more than Spiderman 2 in their chest
 
I say skip the SOP and save anything you have there for a proper Showcase around E3 time, more hype that way. Or you can make a SOP focused on the PSVR2 launch with the last few surprises that have been rumoured.

Can understand the hit or miss, but he did nail nintendo direct last week. Or am I wrong on that?
 
"in a month or so, maybe sooner", "likely before E3 time."

Basically Sony is doing a show sometime between February, March, April, May or June. wow. Can't wait.
