The 40-minute event will show games planned for holiday 2021 and next year.
“The Showcase will weigh in at around 40 minutes and include updates fromPlayStationStudios and some of the industry’s most imaginative developers, for games releasing this holiday and beyond,” an announcement on thePlayStation Blogread last week.
“And stick around after the presentation to get more updates from some of the studio teams featured in the Showcase.”
Sonyhas been regularly hostingState of Playpresentations, giving players updates on upcoming games and products.
This is the first time, however, that it has hosted a PlayStation Showcase event since September 2020, when thePS5 price and release date were officially confirmed.
This suggests that today’s Showcase will have more high profile announcements than those usually made during theState of Playpresentations.
God of Warcreator and Twisted Metal co-creator David Jaffe claimed in a video stream on Friday that he’d heard that PlayStation’s first-party studioswould “be there with flying colours”during the event.
In a separatetweet, Jaffe claimed that one possible PlayStation game announcement was “bad ass” and “people are gonna lose their f**king minds”.
