Sony State of Play event: What to expect

The gaming division of Sony has promised to offer more than 35 minutes of reveals and news from developers about anticipated third-party and indie titles, along with updates from some of their teams at PlayStation Studios.

 

The headline of this event is expected to be the extended look at Saros, which is being developed by Finnish video game studio Housemarque, set for a release next year.

 

According to a report by IGN India, the company might also reveal PlayStation Plus games for the month of October, as it did during last year’s State of Play event held in September.

 

Additionally, the timing of this State of Play event is very close to the release of the Ghost of Yotei game. Sucker Punch Productions’ upcoming samurai action-adventure game is set to release worldwide for PlayStation 5 on October 2. Since the release date is so near, Sony might offer some updates on this game, too. For the uninitiated, this is a pretty big launch for Sony as the company even released a limited-edition PS5 console and accessories themed around the Ghost of Yotei game.
