Previously expected to be another installment of the PlayStation Showcase, it turns out that the next major event by Sony Interactive Entertainment is going to be a State of Play. When it comes to Sony’s first-party studios, things have been pretty quiet recently, which begs the question of what developers like Naughty Dog and Insomniac Games have been up to since their latest releases.

The announcement regarding the upcoming event has appeared out of nowhere, as Sony revealed that it will be airing live very soon, and with plenty of expectations from the player base, it has the potential to end May on the highest possible note.

Of course, discussions about what games will be featured at State of Play are still purely speculative, but for now, fans who do not want to miss it should note that the event will be streaming on YouTube, Twitch, and TikTok.
