A new State of Play airs February 12.

Love how this thread has went from speculation to some guy wacking off and talking about eating 90s actress puke and it has barely even felt out of place
It's all Bernardougfs fault, he posted that gif, which started it all. I'm innocent I swear.

10 mins Marvel Tolkon
10 mins Marathon with announced Open Beta starts live after the show thru the weekend
20 mins of 3rd party stuff with the big ones being Trailers for DS2 PC, FF7 part3, Starfield, and DMC6


What wont be there

Wolverine other than a bit of PSSR clips. It own dedicated SoP maybe announced for Spring/Summer
Fairgames
That new Horizion game
Intergaltic
 
Games I would love to hear about but are not going to happen....

Devil May Cry 6
Legacy of Kain sequel
Metro sequel

Those are the three things I want to hear about and I'm going to guarantee we won't see or hear anything on any of those.

I'm so disappoint.

Fanboy fappers like you are a dying breed.
 
My guess is 3 soulslikes from China, 2 from Korea and 1 from Bangladesh.
Then some cell shaded manga stuff that is an upscaled mobile game.
And a bunch of trailers to promote deluxe editions for games coming out in a couple of weeks.

I'll watch for that possible unannounced indie gem and Marathon.
 
Predictions:

> Sony going to start off SoP by shoving a figurative pick axe up the anus of their fan base by announcing a 25% increase to PS+ pricing because the service is just way too good.

> Concord relaunch (but as Horizon), featuring skins from Goodbye Volcano High for pre-order bonus

> Gran Turismo Electric Vehicle Only game
- won't include Tesla though as part of their new community safety standards

> Brand new safety announcement where you have to show ID every day to play online.

> ~15 indie titles

> Suprise, 16th indie title to send the show off

> Agent trailer. But still no release date.

You joke but it's going to be even worse than this parody for us, fans.
 
how many Japanese games with terrible trailers are we gonna see this time i wonder

Chinese you mean 😉

Watch this being mostly about Marathon, another RE9 Requiem trailer, some other GaaS bullshit, a couple of CHY-NA AnimU action RPGs/MMOs featuring lollies, some MOHUN bullshit that no one cares about about after the Wilds fiasco with devs yapping in the background + MOHUN stories 3 and that's pretty much it.

Like you, I've also watched these SOPs mostly out of habit rather than curiosity.
 
My predictions, footage of Saros, Marathon, Marvel Tokon, Wolverine and Phantom Blade, with a couple release dates. 4 min each, 20 min.

Some 15-20 third party games thrown in, 30 sec each in a reel. Another 10 to 15 minutes.

One Sony WWS announcement not previously announced, be it Media Molecule, Santa Mónica, one of the new studios... .Maybe also a smaller one as that 2m5 GOW rumours. DS2 port to PC because Kojima is such SOAB. 20 min max.

10 more minutes to go, either some tech stuff as PSSR2 or some new accessories, or a big third party game announced as FF3R or DMC6.
 
With Spider-Man 2 apparently coming to PS+ later this month, my hype hope for PSSR2 is intensifying, alongside patches tomorrow and day1 for next releases like RE9.
 
I used to get excited about new SOP. Now I'm just eh, it's always disappointing. Think Sony needs a management overhaul again, in order to greenlight and actually produce exciting projects. They don't have the thirst anymore, and it shows.
 
People seem to forget that SoP had a long episode once. Back in June 2025, which was 55 minutes.

The longest segment I think was Tokon which took up nearly 10 minutes of air time.

 
It's going to be a 1:30 Horizon gaas trailer, followed by 20 minutes of talking about the game while showing footage of people moving polygons on their computer screens. Repeat again for Tokon.

Any potentially decent games will get smashed into a montage and get like 1 second clips.

In February 2025, Jeff Grubb said Fairgames had been internally delayed out of 2025, into 2026.

It has to be the time.

Unless they the feed PvP audience with Marathon and wait until post March 5th to reveal it.

I never understand the timings. The 55 minute show was announced as a 40+ minute show. Maybe they thought the bonus 15 minutes was a nice surprise as people watch it.

Thursday's one may end up being 75 minutes or so but it's about quality not quantity. I used to get excited over showcases, but ever since that disappointing one I kind of give up.

If that were true they wouldn't have released that 7 minute video last week separately from everything else.

Interesting how Wolverine won't be there (but they already mentioned Spring for that game to be shown again)...Intergalactic probably won't be as well. Saros, Marathon and Tokon will be there almost certainly. Maybe Square Enix with FFVII Remake part 3 / FFIX remake / Kingdom Heart 4? One of these at least is a possibility.That God of War game is also a possibility. Control 2 could show. I'm almost sure Cory's game will be the "one last thing" moment, whatever that might be.
 
Honestly not feeling Silent Hill Townfall yet, guess I don't expect much from the developer. On the other hand, I would like to see a teaser or trailer for Silent Hill 1 Remake. Other than that Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 3 (probably too early), Final Fantasy IX (I am still hoping something is coming) and the new project from Cory Barlog (it's been so long, what are they doing?).
