PlayStation has announced a major State of Play showcase, set to air on 5 June 2025 (AEST). For those paying attention, that’s actually the launch date for the Nintendo Switch 2 (in Australia, at least), which is a very funny choice. Normally, there’s a bit more room between major game announcements, but with Summer Game Fest taking place shortly, and so much else going on, why not have PlayStation put in an appearance?
It’s certainly set to be a busy week for gaming fans and game reporters alike.
As announced, the newly-confirmed PlayStation State of Play will be a 40+ minute presentation, likely hosting some major reveals, including new gameplay trailers, release date trailers, and fresh announcements for upcoming games. Currently, PlayStation only has a handful of firmly dated games on the way. State of Play will illuminate plenty more about what’s coming next.

So, what could appear? We’re likely to see Death Stranding 2: On the Beach in some form, as that’s now in the hands of reviewers, and heading very swiftly to launch. Ghost of Yōtei is also likely to appear in some form. Looking further ahead, Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater could get another gameplay trailer. Borderlands 4 could also appear.
What we’re really hoping for is more surprises, and more details for previously-announced, long-dormant games – like Marvel’s Wolverine, for example. That might be a long shot, but we’ll just have to wait to see what’s in the works.
