It doesn’t sound as though PlayStation first-party exclusives will be a huge part of this particular broadcast.State of Play returns next week! Tune in live at 3pm PT on June 2 for reveals, announcements, and more: https://t.co/3lqi9GL9VZ pic.twitter.com/NLLTAgvgLY— PlayStation (@PlayStation) May 27, 2022 It’s worth noting that Sony has recently distinguished between its State of Play broadcasts – shorter broadcasts, with announcements often grouped along a theme – and its PlayStation Showcase event. The digital Showcase replaced what used to Sony’s in-person E3 conference, typically its biggest and most notable reveal of upcoming games and announcements. Last year, Sony waited until September for its full Showcase, which included the first gameplay of God of War: Ragnarok, teases for Insomniac’s Spider-Man 2 and Wolverine games, a Knights of the Old Republic remake, and much more.Joe Skrebels is IGN’s Executive Editor of News.
