If you’re a fan of Japanese video game publishers, then today is the day for you. Along with the Nintendo Direct this morning, there is going to be a PlayStation State of Play stream this afternoon, which is sure to make this a great day for fans of either brand. These streams come just a few days before the Tokyo Game Show, which is one of the biggest events on the gaming calendar.
Unlike the Nintendo Direct, Sony has confirmed that ten games will be shown off in the stream, although it hasn’t announced what they are. We’ll let you know exactly when the stream starts in your time zone, where you can watch and a little bit of what will probably be showcased.
State of Play start time and where to watch
The English version of these streams can be found on official Sony accounts, namely the Twitch and YouTube channels. Here is the full list of start times in each time zone:
September 13:
- 3pm PST.
- 6pm EST.
- 11pm BST.
September 14:
- 12am Central Europe CEST.
- 8am Eastern Australia AEST.
- 11am New Zealand NZST.
What will be shown at State of Play?
While we don’t know exactly what the ten games are that will be showcased, Sony has promised “Japanese partners and developers all around the world.” which could mean anything. God of War is likely to be there, as it is just two months away from launch, and Kratos’ voice actor, Chris Judge, retweeted some teasers.
The PS VR2 is also confirmed to feature in the event, which suggests that the previously announced Horizon: Call of the Mountain will be there too, as Sony has positioned it as one of the landmark games for the system.
