Im guessing third party is Konami + Square enix stuff and call of duty which is hillarious given what happened in the last month. Ms probably has the rest of the western 3rd party, so ass creed mirage and alan wake 2 and probably cyberpunk phantom liberty will be their event.
Alan Wake 2 could pretty much be in Sony's event. Remember, Control was revealed at a PlayStation event and it had marketing rights with them so it wouldn't be weird if they had a deal again.

Hype Train conductor. Works harder than it steams.
TGO TGO bring that hype vessel up in here!

I think Sony got the Konami IPs so they can have more 3rd party stuff to show

Do you think that they will show the PS5Slim with a announcement of a Spider-Man bundle?
Nah, I would be shocked, unless it was shown just after the trailer on a pre-order now splash screen. That would be more for a blog post this summer and/or State of Play with Spider-Man 2.

They still want to move through their current build stock.

Exactly.. If you compare it to the PS4 gen they always had 2-3 shows during the year some of which lasted 1h30min.

1h only???? Jimbo, give me a break!
If you go further back they were also smack packed with

Spreadsheets

Sales numbers

Projections

More numbers

Developer fluff speeches

Not to derail anybody’s hype train but just be prepared for this Showcase to be last event where the majority of Sony’s announcements will be focused on singleplayer, before we get a wave of GaaS sludge in the next few years.
You really think this current Sony who knows just like nintendo why people love their ecosystem to just start showing gaas all of a sudden when gow ragnarok was a blockbuster, when tlou hbo is a global phenom, lul.
Also, I do hope they show at most 2 promising gaas games (1 being tlou factions) because overwatch 2 is not doing it for me anymore.

Well, they have to show off their 10 live service games eventually. Trust me, I don’t like this trend-chasing either.

After years of silence and lack of blockbuster shows it NEEDS to be a gigaton filled banger.

An 8/10 presentation ain't enough.

A deep dive of Spiderman 2 and showing off Factions and Wolverine for the first time would be a massive disappointment.

They need like 5 new first party announcements at minimum.
I mean I would be pretty happy with those three ngl

Don’t forget most of that is coming from new studios and third parties.

Haven, Deviation, Bungie, Firesprite? (Twisted Metal)
Then there’s Polyphony, and possibly MM.
Then the rest could be from multi-game studios (which most Sony studios are now) such as Naughty Dog and Sony London. (New SingStar maybe?)
