Sony Announces State of Play for May 30 Featuring 14 Game Reveals

Sony has officially announced a new State of Play broadcast set to air on Thursday, May 30 at 3 PM PT / 6 PM ET. The event promises to showcase 14 titles coming to PlayStation 5 and PlayStation VR2 in what could be one of the most significant updates from the company so far in 2024.

The 30+ minute presentation is expected to feature a mix of first-party exclusives and third-party titles, with many speculating that long-awaited reveals and updates—such as the rumored Silent Hill 2 remake, multiplayer spin-offs from the Horizon universe, or even more details about Marvel’s Wolverine from Insomniac Games—could finally be unveiled. Sony confirmed via PlayStation Blog that the event will include both new announcements and fresh looks at previously revealed titles.

This latest State of Play arrives at a crucial moment for Sony, as the company looks to reignite excitement among its core fan base following a relatively quiet first half of the year. With major titles like Final Fantasy VII Rebirth already released and others like Stellar Blade pushing into the latter half of 2024, fans have been eagerly awaiting news on Sony’s next big moves.

While Sony remains tight-lipped about specific titles set to appear, the company emphasized the event’s inclusion of PlayStation VR2 games—a pleasant surprise for owners of the platform who have been hoping for signs of increased software support. Industry insiders suggest we might see updates on highly anticipated VR experiences like Behemoth or Resident Evil 4 VR Mode.

Gamers can watch the State of Play livestream via PlayStation’s official YouTube, Twitch, and TikTok channels. As usual, community watch parties and breakdown streams are expected to crop up across platforms like Discord, Reddit, and X (formerly Twitter).

Will this be the moment Sony silences critics and reminds the world why the PlayStation 5 remains one of the most beloved platforms in gaming? Tune in Thursday to find out.
