What Sony has confirmed for this State of Play
Sony has outlined that February’s show will deliver over an hour of news, gameplay updates, and announcements from developers worldwide. The broadcast will spotlight third-party games headed to PS5, feature indie titles that are “eye-catching” and likely to appeal to fans looking for fresh experiences.
The show will also include the latest updates from PlayStation Studios teams, meaning you can expect at least some first-party presence even if the show leans heavily on partners.
While specific titles aren’t listed in the announcement, that mix usually means a blend of brand-new reveals, extended gameplay segments, and updates on games you already know about.
