“The broadcast will be over 40 minutes long, and feature guest appearances from some of the most talented minds in gaming,” Sony says in itsannouncement. “Among many other updates, we’ll feature extended looks at Stellar Blade and Rise of the Ronin, two great games coming to PS5 this year. And we’ll give you a new look at other titles coming to PS5 and PS VR2 in 2024 and beyond.”
You might recallStellar Blade as Project Eve, the gorgeous third-person action gamethat’s been appearing at various PlayStation events since 2019.Rise of the Ronin is a samurai RPG that promises to be the “biggest game to date” from the studio behind Nioh. These are promising titles that are nonetheless not necessarily huge blockbusters, and it’s important to remember that State of Play broadcasts are typically a bit more low-key than the larger events branded under thePlayStation Showcasename.
That said, there have been big rumors about this State of Play, the most notable of which is that we’re getting new information aboutDeath Stranding 2.
