What To Expect

In a blog post, Sony laid out what we can expect from the next State of Play event, with the event primarily focusing on the upcoming Deathloop, a new IP being developed by Bethesda. Deathloop is due to launch on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X.

“In this extended gameplay sequence, we’ll see Cole use his abilities to stealthily skulk across rooftops… or go in guns blazing to create a whole lot of mayhem. Lots of options available on Blackreef Island.

In addition to this long look at Bethesda’s violent adventure, we’ll have updates on some exciting indie and third-party titles. The full show clocks in around 30 minutes.”

Sony also reiterated that we will not find out any more details on upcoming titles such as God Of War: Ragnarok or Horizon Forbidden West, with the event solely focusing on Deathloop and some indie titles.

They did let us know to “Stay tuned throughout the summer though, as we’ll have more updates soon”, so hopefully it shouldn’t be too much longer before we get new details about those titles as well as the next generation of PlayStation VR games, we’re still hoping to see Half-Life Alyx on PSVR.
