PlayStation’s State of Play returns next week with a focus on third-party games

Sony Interactive Entertainment has announced it will stream a new State of Play presentation on Wednesday, October 27.

Kicking off at 2pm PT / 5pm ET / 10pm UK and lasting for about 20 minutes, the broadcast will focus on announcements and updates for third-party games coming to PS5 and PS4.

“The show is looking to be ~20 minutes or so, and will share new looks at previously announced games, plus a few reveals from our partners around the world,” Sony said.

The platform holder held a 40-minute PlayStation Showcase event in early September, which was headlined by first-party game announcements.

Sony revealed that Insomniac Games’ Spider-Man 2 is coming exclusively to PS5 in 2023, and that the studio is making a Wolverine game for the new console.
