There are big things in the future of the PlayStation 5. Horizon: Forbidden West, God of War, Final Fantasy 16, as well the delayed Gran Turismo 7. But other than the fact that these games exist, we do not know too much about them. Hopefully that will change on Thursday.
After Nintendo announced last week Splatoon 3, The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD and Mario Golf: Super Rush during its Nintendo Direct presentation, Sony announced that it will have a main presentation of its own for Thursday in State of Play.
The previous state of Play, in October, dealt with the upcoming PlayStation 5 and its user interface. On Thursday, State of Play will focus entirely on games.
How to watch
Easy peasy: Right here!
Or, if you’d rather move, here.
Start times
Condition starts at 14:00 PT / 17:00 ET on Thursday 25 February. Brits will get a taste of the upcoming PlayStation games just before bedtime 22:00 GMT. Sony’s launch begins with the working day in Australia, which starts at 09:00 Friday AEDT.
What to expect
Sony says State of Play will focus on ten games coming to PS4 and PS5, which will feature new announcements, as well as updates on games to be unveiled at the PS5 show last June.
This is potentially big news, as games showcased at the June 5 PS5 show last year include Horizon: Forbidden West, Gran Turismo 7 and a PS5 edition of Grand Theft Auto 5. Hopefully we see more of God of War: Ragnarok, tentatively scheduled for release in 2021.
