Playstation starts its 2025 with a new State of Play

Sony has announced that it will hold a presentation to show off the next batch of upcoming Playstation games. The presentation will take place Wednesday, February 12th at 2 PM PT / 5 PM ET. It’ll have a runtime of 40 minutes and feature, “creative and unique selection of exciting games from studios around the world.”

Last month, Nintendo held its own presentation to finally announce its next console, the Switch 2. Meanwhile Xbox held a more game-focused Developer Direct which included an announcement for Ninja Gaiden 4 as well as a stealth drop for the remaster of Ninja Gaiden II. Sony’s announcement comes just a few days removed from a huge PlayStation Network outage over the weekend, which resulted in subscribers getting a few extra days added to their accounts.

As for the event itself, we can reasonably expect an update on Ghosts of Yotei, the sequel to Sucker Punch Studios’ Ghosts of Tsushima that was announced at Sony’s September 2024 State of Play. Ubisoft might also make an appearance with Assassin’s Creed: Shadows which was delayed for a second time, pushing its new release date to March 20th. There might also be an update on Insomniac Games’ new Wolverine title which, outside of some details including a playable build getting leaked in a malicious hack, hasn’t had an official update since its reveal in 2021.

But it won’t be long now before we find out just what PlayStation has in store for the year.
