This is the first Sony State of Play since January, and that event was primarily focused on games arriving in the first half of 2024, like Rise of the Ronin and Stellar Blade. Hideo Kojima’s Death Stranding 2 was also prominently featured, alongside the developer’s new mystery game Physint. Described as an action-espionage game, Kojima said Physint will see him return to his Metal Gear Solid roots with the use of advanced technology to help him create a hybrid game and movie experience.
State of Play arrives during a very busy time on the gaming calendar. While there aren’t too many high-profile games coming out in June, the month is crammed with numerous showcase events, like Summer Game Fest 2024, the Xbox Games Showcase, and a new Nintendo Direct amongst many other gaming livestreams.
Interestingly, Sony is also a confirmed Summer Game Fest partner, but it hasn’t revealed yet how involved it’ll be with the annual show hosted by Geoff Keighley.
