A STATE OF PLAY.png

Sony has announced the new State Of Play for July 8th that will feature 9 minutes of gameplay for Deathloop as well as some info for upcoming Indie titles.

The Deathloop gameplay will apparently feature one of the main characters Cole showcasing his abilities in both stealth moments and all-out guns-blazing combat. The show will also show updates on some exciting indie and third-party games which kinda feels like a reaction to the recent discussion around PlayStation's lack of support of indie game developers and the PlayStation storefront.

They also confirmed some games and hardware that won't be at the showcase which go as followed:

the next God of War

Horizon Forbidden West

next generation of PlayStation VR

I don't understand why PlayStation isn't showing what we'll have to play this year on PS5, the obvious conclusion is that they don't have anything. Most of the gaming companies have seemingly revealed there hand of what's coming this year and EA is planning to over the course of the next month. But PlayStation, one of the biggest platforms in the space hasn't shown anything, i really hope they have something but if your a PlayStation player i wouldn't get your hopes up.

If you wanna check out the 30-minute show, it will kick off at 2 pm Pacific / 5 pm Eastern / 11 pm CEST and will be viewable on both Twitch and YouTube.

Sony Announce Release Windows For Some Upcoming Games

Horizon 2

CES 2021 started yesterday and came with a ton of awesome tech announcements that included Sony Revealing a bunch of release windows for some upcoming video games.

Jim Ryan kicked off the PlayStation part of the show by discussing the PlayStation 5's launch and the upcoming Uncharted movie and The Last of Us TV show, However, he quickly transitioned into a trailer for some games followed by a ton of details.

Kena: Bridge of Spirits is apparently set to launch sometime in March 2021, Solar Ash is expected June 2021, Little Devil Inside is expected July 2021 with Ghostwire Toyko and Stray scheduled for October 2021. Lastly, Project Athia isn't coming anytime soon with it set to arrive in 2022, while Capcom's Pragmata won't be on PS5 until 2023.

These are release windows so they can change at any point in time but it seems like PlayStation have a pretty packed year, especially when Deathloop is possibly coming in May and Ratchet And Clank: Rift Apart supposedly coming in 2021 too. Oh and Destruction AllStars on PlayStation Plus in February. It’s looking like a great but expensive year for PlayStation Players.
