I don't think this is possible. Sony still has marketing rights to the title that has to be honored. So if there is going to be a deep dive anywhere, it would be on a Sony platform. And even at that, MS doesn't own ABK yet.
Not expecting any deep dives longer than 5 minutes. They have state of play for those and so far every sony published/partnered game always got its own state of play.
Represent.

R* is never at these events. Dont think they've ever even been uttered in an E3 type showcase. Not since the Tattoo arm reveal which was like 200...6?
And GTA 6 would literally DROWN out every other single announcement and would be the only thing mainstream media talks about. Not sure Sony would want that.

I think Bluepoint and MGS3 are the same things. Sucker punch is due to show something. Not counting the MP expansion, their last release was in 2020. Can't imagine DS2 not being at this in some capacity.

It’s possible. But I am not going to get my hopes up
Games take 5-6 years to make now so we are only 3 years removed from GoT and Kojima tends to show stuff off at TGA

Why did you have to be on my ignore list I almost missed this.
With that said thanks for sharing and I'll be looking forward to this.

Half Life Alyx would be a huge win for PSVR2 (and an easy slam dunk if Valve is up for it, which they should be).

Well, Sucker Punch's next game is most ikey ging to be GOT2. So my guess is that they already have 60% of their engine down so that's most of the work already done. Maybe fresh new IPs take 5-6 years, but sequels tend to take around 4-5.
Either way, I see them at least showing it this year. And releasing in maybe fall of next year or early 2025. At some point, we gotta start asking what Sony will release next year, if SM2 and Factions come this year, something has to be released next year right? My money is on GoT2, MGS3R, SHR...etc.

Kind of. Rockstar actually was at one of the few PlayStation Showcases leading into launch, but it was just the GTA5 Remastered GTA Online content announcement.
But yeah, GTA6 doesn't make sense to me as an announcement R* would give to anybody, nor would they want to share the day with any other company's products.

I am not expecting Convallaria; I think this game needs to be a lot better to reach te PS Studios quality and it will be delayed.
Lost Souls Aside will likely be there.
Rough prediction.
Intro (2 minutes)
SM2 (4-5 minutes)
DS2 (3 minutes)
TLOU Factions (4-5minutes)
Random TV spot (1 minute)
MGS3 (3 minutes)
SH2 R (2 minutes)
FF16 (2 minutes)
One of the Horizon multiplayer games or Helldivers 2 (2 minutes)
Stellar Blade (3 minutes)
One of the fighting games (2 minutes)
Q lite spot ( 1 minute)
Indies (10 minutes)
PSVR2 section (10 minutes)
Team Asobi game (3 minutes)
Housemarques new game (2 minutes)
Bluepoint's new game (2 minutes)
Outro (2 minutes)
60 minutes so far. I can't remember how many time in the previous showcase was random transitions, intro's and outro's.
I need to figure out what the spellbinding game is, maybe I am just missing the From Soft game. Personally just want to get insight into GenDesigns game this summer.

I just hope they do it like in the PS5 reveal showcase and everything they show is running on the PS5.
99.99% they will for stuff with gameplay but I do expect some CG trailers still.

Well, these are precious moments that you will cherish for the rest of your life.
So I hope you don't miss it for anything! Besides, you can always get a new wife and kid.

FYI at over 1 hour long this will be longer than any of the ps5 showcases so far (both were around 45 mins)
Make a statement. And make noise.

Last time we got Indies like Kena, Stray, Tchia and (I think) Sifu? Those are all amazing games.
If we can get a few indies of the same caliber, I'd be pretty happy.
Even better, if they showcase Hades 2 with a release date.
Needs an early access date first sadly.Even better, if they showcase Hades 2 with a release date.
Suspect that Early Access will be limited to PC

There will for sure be games shown which will release in 2023, probably even some from Sony. Sony cleared out their Phase I product line (and also their PSVR launch titles, ) and although this gen has been agonizingly spare in major titles, we know they have titles to announce by teams who should be close to done by now. Sony won't go the rest of the year with only product releases in Feb/March.
... Could still suck, there have been letdown showcases (well, not really in a long time imo, but especially after skipping a year, Sony has a lot of expectations to live up to here.) But whether it's a big bang or a oof dud, Sony will lay out the next 18 months or so, and the focus cannot reasonably be on two Christmases from now purely on their financial records, much less gamer impressions.
At the very least, Spider-Man 2 is all but officially announced for this year. The Marvel.com website for it even lists it as Fall 2023.

(*BTW, it hadn't been 7 months since a first party release. PSVR2 launched in February. Also the next MLB The Show came out a bit ago. It may have been 7 months since you bought a first party release, but it's not like shelves have been left bare.)

The nature of the TLOU games is that they're grounded in hyper-realism, both in gameplay and design... the company have already made 2 and are now working on a multiplayer, and there's only so much they can innovate and create given the context and nature of the game.
It's healthy for a studios creativity to do something totally different and push them in different ways. This is why the rumors of them working on a fantasy IP also sound plausible.
Sure TLOU show is a huge success, all the more reason to let all the seasons play out then release the third game after it's gained an even wider audience and more mindshare.

Minimum I want from Naughty Dog
(Factions and Part 2 PC&PS5 announcement)
Ideal announcement for me ( Factions, TLOU3 teaser and Part 2 for PC&PS5)

Highly unlikely, but a new PS5s marketed as a replacement for the PS5 digital SKU and coming in at the same price sounds very likely. Keeping it at the same price as the current PS5DE means it won't compete with the PS5 disc version, even if you can get an add-on disc drive for it.
Announce it and the disc drive add-on next week > Release it next month > Release disc drive add-on in September > Discontinue PS5 with disc drive in September.
Who am I kidding though, they likely won't do that but it won't surprise me if they did.

I think it's too early I expect it to be announced around this time next year for a fall release.
Also good lord Sony have so much in development and the 3rd party exclusives aswell it's absurd...

I expect them to do some 15-30min state of play only for Spiderman2, like they did with some other major releases (Horizon, Final Fantasy, Ghost of Tsushima...).
The rumoured release is September, and I would make the SoP a few weeks before.

Extremely unlikely. Like less than 5% chance of that happening right now because an announcement would slow down PS5 sales.
nani17
are in a big trouble
I'm surprised everybody says GTA 6 I can't recall the last time they were at a live event I think he was for GTA 4. As far as I remember GTA 5 was just a trailer so I was red dead 2.
They don't really need to be at these events so I'll be surprised if they even show anything

Sucker Punch released GoT Director's Cut / PS5 SKU / Ikki DLC less than two years ago, a few months before the GoT Legends MP mode and a few months before the GoT game.
Big AAA games today take around 5-6 years or more and Sony usually announces their games when they are a year or a year and a half from their estimated release.
So if Sucker Punch has something to show this year will be the GoT PC port, or maximum a logo.
Bluepoint isn't working in any remaster or remake, and aren't leading any game.
They are around 70 people. After Demon's Souls Bluepoint moved to God of War Ragnarok and their boss said in a IGN interview when bought by Sony that they moved away from remasters and remakes, and that now were only going to work in original games.
And their game design team was a single guy, not enough to make their own original game. After GoWR they hired a level designer, still not enough. So in their next project, where they have been working for around half a year, they will work again in a support role like in GoWR.

They've actually been at the last 2 Playstation Showcases. Though only with GTA5 announcements. It would be surprising if they announced a new game here.
The only complication I could see with GOT2, is that they might want to hold it back to avoid overshadowing Rise of the Ronin.
