PlayStation State of Play on June 2: details and expectations

PlayStation has officially confirmed that a State of Play presentation will take place on June 2. Seen as PlayStation’s big summer event, the showcase promises an exciting look at several upcoming games, including Insomniac Games’ highly anticipated Wolverine title.

Details about the presentation

State of Play will begin at 14:00 PT / 17:00 ET and is expected to run for around 60 minutes. The focus will mainly be on new updates and announcements for PlayStation 5 titles. While the exact lineup has not yet been confirmed, it is clear the presentation will give plenty of attention to the Wolverine game.

Dates and timeline for upcoming events

State of Play arrives just ahead of another major stretch in the gaming calendar. Here are some key dates:

What can we expect?

In addition to Wolverine, other titles could also make an appearance. There is speculation that Saros DLC and possible updates for Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet may get some attention. There is also talk that Phantom Blade Zero could show up during the presentation.

While a game like Grand Theft Auto VI may seem unlikely, given Rockstar Games’ reputation for hosting its own events, there is still a chance it could receive a small teaser or announcement, especially considering a previous marketing deal with PlayStation.

Live viewing experience

For viewers who want to experience the presentation in person, PlayStation has partnered with Alamo Drafthouse in several major U.S. cities. Special watch parties will be held, with free entry but limited availability. The selected cities include Raleigh, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, Dallas/Fort Worth, and New York City.

Conclusion

With a packed 60 minutes and a strong focus on Insomniac Games’ Wolverine, the June 2 State of Play is shaping up to be an exciting showcase for PlayStation fans. The unconfirmed lineup of other titles and the standout live event partnerships only add to the anticipation surrounding the presentation.
