Sony confirmed that the next State of Play will take place on June 2 and will last more than an hour. The event will be one of the first major presentations in the mid-year video game announcement calendar.
The broadcast will show a new look at Marvel's Wolverine, the third-person action-adventure title developed by Insomniac Games that is shaping up to be one of the most important releases of the year for PlayStation.
According to details shared by Sony on its official blog, the studio will share more about Logan's brutal and relentless combat, as well as reveal new details about the game. Fans are eager to see gameplay sequences that highlight the character's ferocity.
Release date and platforms
Marvel's Wolverine is confirmed to arrive on PS5 on September 15. For now, there are no announcements regarding a PC version, amid reports indicating that Sony is prioritizing temporary or total exclusivity for its single-player titles on PlayStation consoles.
The State of Play will be available to watch live on YouTube and Twitch with audio in English. Additionally, there will be a version available on YouTube with Japanese subtitles to reach a wider audience in Asia.
This event comes at a key moment, just before the Summer Game Fest, and many expect Sony to take the opportunity to showcase other projects in development, although the main focus announced is the Wolverine preview.
Expectations for the showcase
With a duration of over 60 minutes, the State of Play promises to be more extensive than usual presentations. PlayStation followers are eager to learn about updates on other titles, although the official announcement particularly highlights new material from Insomniac.
The combat of Wolverine is expected to be one of the highlights, showcasing the mutant's aggression and strength in action. Insomniac has already proven its quality with franchises like Spider-Man, so expectations are high.
The Argentine and regional gamer community tends to follow these events with great interest, as they often set the pace for releases in the second half of the year. Although there is still no confirmation of other games, just seeing more of Wolverine generates excitement.
Sony aims to maintain the momentum of PlayStation 5 with powerful announcements before the northern summer. Viewers will be able to tune into the stream directly from the official platforms without the need for extra registrations.
