What time is Sony PlayStation's State of Play livestream and when and where can you watch it? State of Play is Sony’s regularly scheduled show, broadcast live intermittently throughout the year. Each one focuses on different things: sometimes PS5 and PS4 exclusives, other times third-party titles, and occasionally just on a single game. But when is the next State of Play? In this guide, we're going to give you all the details you need to tune in.

There will be lots of brand new gameplay footage of the game, which is in development at Avalanche Software (perhaps best known for Disney Infinity).
No other games will be shown or announced during this State of Play. This one is all about Hogwarts Legacy.
State of Play: How Long Will Sony PlayStation's Livestream Be?
The next State of Play will be roughly 20 minutes in length, featuring over 14 minutes of Hogwarts Legacy PS5 gameplay footage.

Hopefully People Don't Blow a Gasket if Sony Doesn't Talk About Certain Games lol
more info about Ghost of Tsushima would be awsome.
I'm thinking the same. A May State of Play seems like a very logical move before E3.
Mark my words they will officially reveal DemonSouls remake.. u heard it here 1st..
They're going to make some kind of an announcement before E3. If they really believe E3 is dead, they should at least make an effort to kill it.
Looks like NintendoLife's monthly Direct rumour article
I think it would be better a day after E3. Just for that counter magic they do so well.
@Areus too late. They're mad about it before it's even been announced.
It's not regularly scheduled if they have had one and not scheduled a second
so are they going to just have a bunch of these livestreams througout the year or just around E3? , i would prefer the former.
I just want to know where the MediEvil news is. Got a teaser in 2017 and nothing since.
@Jriibz
My bad. So 2019 eh? I hope so.
Updated.
The new Ghost Recon is being unveiled at 7:30pm as well.
The third party project could be Grenoble Fantasy... Cygames has been talking to the western press a lot lately.
Yeah can not wait for PlayStation direct
At least I'll be off work by then. But I'll also forget by then.
Again, I'll most likely be on the road at the time this is live (6:00pm ET in Barbados) but I'll catch it on replay.
It would be so brilliant if they started by announcing ports of FF 1-6 and 8-9, move on to all other announcements then briefly announce FF7 remake at the very end.
Comes in right around cooking time so will watch it while making dinner with the wife. Not really expecting much at all tbh but should be a fun 10 minute distraction!
Won't be able to catch it live, but I'll be sure to check this site for news and other stuff!
I should be home at midnight. But it's only a few minutes, so I can watch it later tonight if I have to.
FEEEEEEEEEELLLL THEEE HYPPPPPPPPEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!
@Octane You can either watch the live stream or make a lock pick. Not both.
@kyleforrester87 Nah, I can do both.
@Octane BUT THATS NOT THE RULES
Twisted Metal reveal
@kyleforrester87 I make the rules kiddo.
Tonight is my E3 2019.
@Octane That might carry some weight over at NL but around here we go to bed when we're damn well told to go to bed.
Gimme that Medievil!
That's an alright time for me, I can take a 10 minute pause during Hitman 2 for this.
Excited
Live chat perhaps?
Edit: nvm I'm stupid and I read it now! I'll see you all later
Lets say we get a state of play in September on outbreak day. And if release schedule is true. Announcement then release date of 5 months later is February. February release date confirmed.
Nothing like making no news out of no news.
The summer ain't slow if you look over to camp Nintendo. One big release after the next: Mario Maker 2, Fire Emblem, Marvel ultimate alliance 3, Astral Chain...
@tameshiyaku Astral Chain is very interesting game to me.. passed on Mario Maker 2, Fire Emblem, Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3
I'll watch for sure though I have zero interest in the last of us.
I have 10 plus games i want so im not in a hurry.
@Areus Oh they will. It's just the nature of things.
@pimpjuice 50/50 chance like anything.
@get2sammyb yo Sammy honestly do u think we'll get a DemonsSouls remake on the ps4? i heard u say ur condident its in developement but question is will it be ps4 or ps5?
@Areus You know are going too be mad no matter what. 😋
UPDATED
@Quintumply Thank for laying out all the time zones in the update.
@rjejr
First Sony Direct I'll be watching live!
6 AM is too early for me, I won't be awake until 9 AM.
Hopefully I don't get spoilered by anyone before I can watch the video.
Nice. 2pm is perfect for me
@pimpjuice I have heard it like this for the past 8 months from almost every 3rd person on the internet.
Weird time choosing. I mean in europe people will be working at 2pm, while in USA everyone will be sleeping. What's up with the bad timing? Should have done like always. Around 10PM europe and like 4 or 5PM at East Coast
I shan't be watching it as I'm at work and I don't really like the way it's presented.
@Bamila it's 8 pm in UK. And 9 pm Sweden and Germany France etc? How do you get it to 2 pm in Europe?
@Bamila haha I see your comment is from December 2019.... 😅
Updated.
I’d love to join you guys for this, but I’m concerned about trolls trying to spoil this game in the comments section during the livestream. I guess I’ll have to think about it more.
@DeepSpace5D I've read the spoilers and all I'm gonna say is, don't risk it. Just watch it later on.
Why are the majority of comments from a year ago?
I just want an update about the multiplayer, that’s bout it 🤷🏽♂️
@lacerz Because this is our recurring guide to whatever the latest State of Play is. We bring it back with the up to date info for each one, hence the historic comments
@XFsWorld There's no multiplayer in The Last of Us 2. Apparently, Naughty Dog is making a standalone Last of Us multiplayer game.
Watch this, then watch the SpaceX launch. Good times.
@DeepSpace5D the comments will be disabled
@lacerz This presentation should be over within 33min then!
As much as I want to watch this is there any point for anyone buying it not matter what? (Most of us). Seems like 25 minutes will spoil it. How can it not? Watching GOT state of play I understand as it was a bit of an unknown game in many aspects. But I feel i should try and not watch this and then just enjoy it fully (I swerved internet spoilers) when it releases. Seeing lots of gameplay, insights, and new environments can’t be a good thing surely..
@TheMovement
Sony said the gameplay will be 28 minutes, so it should work out perfectly!
Can I watch it live with you guys without fearing for spoilers?
@Montys if true then I’m there!
@lacerz Noice! Great evening indeed
@jdv95 The games is here next Tuesday, so uhm, what?
I thin irregularly scheduled would be a better description
@Grimwood His comment was from 'Wed 1st May 2019', it threw me at first but it seems PushSquare update a single page and keep the comments around (annoyingly). Be nice if they could add a sort to the comments i.e. newest first, if they keep it this way.
Demon Souls news should suffice
Persona 5 Scamble would be nice to see - I won't hold out too much hope though!
I'm hoping for a release date for Persona 5 Scramble in the UK
@Hobbesyall that is possible. I’m thinking a psvr announcement of some type as well.
Literally the only page I've seen on any website that updates itself throughout years
@pimpjuice this aged well
Funny reading through the comments from over a year ago. The original article was posted before E3 2019.
Yay! I'm awake. Another 40 minutes to go lol
We'd better get more on stray or I'm gonna flip my lid
Just hoping to see Kena: Bridge of Spirits with a release date. That game looks so stunning! (hoping gameplay will be equally strong too!)
Metal Gear Solid Remake please!
FFVII remake patch/ps5 version please 😍
@VanguardKaiser Source?
@pimpjuice nope you got one on ps5
@pimpjuice good guess, they did
Please confirm Disco Elysium release date.
Asia/Oceania times would be Friday 26th
I wonder what SONY will announce for next month's PC PLUS er erm I mean PS PLUS + I doubt very much that Kena will be a free game for next month!? I don't know why people even say it will be. Just madness(well Welcome to the Internet)
If you're going to update and republish these old posts with new info, you should really consider deleting the previous comments.
@Paranoimia yeah I've had someone reply to my post from 2 years ago about a new ghost recon game lol
This, then the draft. What a Thursday.
This comment section was confusing for a moment!
Kitten STRAY has to return in full glory! Oh, and Little Devil Inside.
Probably be giving this one a miss. Already seen enough of Ratchet and Clank to know that I will be buying it eventually, and will catch trailers of the other games later on YouTube.
@KippDynamite I want to know more about Ghost of Tsushima.
@KippDynamite It went off in the weirdest tangent 🤣
@Prime_Objective Yes, those are two Indies that I'm looking forward to playing. Haven't seen any actual gameplay from Stray whereas it's gone a bit quiet about Little Devil.
Can't wait to see more of Rift Apart. However, I'm intrigued by these two indie games they're showing as well. Would love an update on Little Devil Inside!
@pimpjuice - Well its not indie title, and Sony already said they only showing more Ratchet gameplay & 2 indie games(nothing else
What other indie titles are there besides lost souls aside and black myth wukong?
I was confused when I just went to watch it on youtube, it only said 2pm or 5pm. They literally can't just add a single time zone other than the Americas?
Was that the least amount of games ever shown in a State of Play experience? Three?
The first Horizon was a hidden gem that got overshadowed by Breath of The Wild's release. Hopefully BOTW2 doesn't come out when Horizon 2 does lol
This, along with ratchet, was my main reason to get the PS5 ahead of the XSX.
There will be other reasons I'm sure, like what are naught dog up to now but, yup, those 2 games
I'm hoping they show this and then very last a special announcement. "HZD is being updated to 60fps tomorrow on PS5."
Man was hoping to wake up to this trailer. oh well....
All I need is this game this year.
@ATaco
With today's news of the Switch Pro reveal coming soon and September-October release window, I think the chances of Breath of the Wild 2 launching the same time just shot up massively.
Nintendo trying to troll Sony again I think!
@blinx01 Bloomberg is not what I would call official confirmation though...
@KidBoruto
Eurogamer and other sources have also confirmed the rumour.
Pretty much just a question of WHEN Nintendo make the announcement rather than IF.
Obviously BOTW2 is not confirmed to launch with the system, so that is just pure speculation
Really hope we get something about God of war even just one frame from it
@Digit2021 I hope so too!
@JohnKarnes you can bet Sony has some surprise announcements coming soon (this summer) they're going to want to counter the whole Bethesda/Microsoft E3 presentation that Soo many peeps are hyped about. For me personally, I am excited for Forbidden West! I'd also LOVE to see some news or footage regarding God of War Ragnarok! Happy gaming!
Hoping to get a better idea of when this is coming.
Some of those landscapes in the pre-show look pretty cool, not gonna lie.
@blinx01 It's still just a rumor to me, even with very reputable sources backing it.
I'll believe it when it's officially announced.
@blinx01 So Nintendo did announce a new Switch model, but it's just a new OLED screen and other small changes.
I guess Bloomberg can be wrong?
Hopefully they will announce enabling the SSD expansion for PS5
@Grey_Area Hopefully... I'm tired of sitting on the money for a decent 2tb NVMe drive, and space is getting tight already, even with all my PS4 games on an external drive... 🙄
SSD! SSD! SSD! Seriously... I'm running out of room... And I don't wanna have to faff about in 6/12 months digging the PS5 out, pulling it apart and fitting it, I want to be able to get my console wired in all neat and stuff and forget about it. Until PSVR2 comes out... 🙄 Although, if I have to wait much longer I might just end up getting a new GPU and getting back into PC gaming... 😁
As someone who's rather challenged by converting time zones, this article is a life saver.
Also wtf I can't watch it anyway because I'll be asleep by then!
Even though this event is focused on indie/3rd party games. Still going to tune in and watch what they got to show and I know it be more interesting then a Microsoft event.
So is this Sony's E3 presentation a month late? Are we going to be comparing this to those events or is this Sony's safe place where they do things on their own? Pretty weak for the console leader IMO.
Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut (PS5) + do we need to follow 2 paths = pay for PS5 upgrade & pay for the DLC? Can't seem to find a €30/£30/$30 path
Looking forward to: Hoa (PS5) & Kena: Bridge of Spirits (PS5) & the SSD expansion needs to be there!
Maybe some little surprises?
@KidBoruto They weren't per se wrong (Oled, 7inch, higher price). Except for the upgraded chipset. Maybe Nintendo couldn't get the needed supply?
@Pusher2021 Maybe? We'll never know, Nintendo is very private about such things usually.
if they touch on any of these i'll be super excited....come on big money no whammies!!
The Callisto Protocol
Black Myth: Wu Kong
Forspoken
A Plague Tale: Requiem
I was disappointed to hear they are putting more GTA5 in this state of play!😭
It's only a 20 minute stream so keep expectations in check folks.
It's a long shot but hoping and 🤞 for Final Fantasy 16 news and maybe Resident Evil 4 Remake info!
Honestly, this site would be even better if they made new articles instead of rehashing the old one every time there's an update.
I mean, no one is interested in reading old comments from 1st of may, 2019... people were like neanderthals back then!
Don't get your hopes up and go into this with tempered expectations. I'm curious to get a look at Little Devil Inside. Hoping for more news on Stray too. I assume we'll get sizzle trailers for Vanguard etc too.
Besides Little Devil Inside, upcoming third-party games include Final Fantasy 16, Forspoken, Ghostwire: Tokyo, and Stray. We'll have to wait and see what else makes an appearance.
Hello future me, reading this thread.
Gran Turismo car for Smash confirmed.
@Areus unfortunately people will be mad over this
Can't wait for people to be mad when they only show Gran Turismo 7 after saying they would only be showing Gran Turismo 7 in this State of Play
Hopefully we also get gameplay demo of Deathloop
@Areus lollll clap
@Bamila lol! Relatable, thanks for the chuckle
When I was 10 years old, we had a kid in school who used to spend the whole of breaktime running around the playground pretending he was a car, making car engine noises constantly while doing so (with the odd 'beep-beep' if someone was in his way).
Extremely annoying!
However the hype for GT7 is making me feel excited as that 10 year old boy, to the point where I'm making gear change noises as I turn the corner to my bathroom, with a screeching halt as I reach the toilet.
All who comment on here that they’re not interested in cars will receive a 5 second slow down penalty. Any other who comment in praise, 10 second penalty and relegation to the E league. GTSport rules, be gone to the shadow realm for speaking ill of the glorious penalty system Katz nurtured with his own teet!
im sure people won't read this , then come on here and complain how they didn't announce or show off any new games
That would be great if they gives us a hint of Spartacus
Probably not going to tune into this one. Expect it to be 80 - 100% GT7. If there's anything else I'll pick it up here after.
30 minutes trailer of smooth riding ultra realistic cars, really boring for me. 😑
But if suddenly I saw a Blue Shell (Mario Kart) smack on the first place car and make some drama in Gran Turismo 7, I will get excited. 😆
@Anti-Matter A GT/Mario Kart mash-up, you say?.... 🤔
I'd buy that. Let's hope Sony's next acquisition is Nintendo. 😉
God, if it gets a full-fat PSVR2 mode, there'll be happy noises emanating from the bowels of DarkSide towers.
I really want to watch live, but the stream quality is always low that it annoys the heck out of me.
Also, I'm in 2 minds, I've been looking forward to GT7 since its first announcement, so as much as I want to watch, I also really want to keep the game as spoiler free as I can...
Finally, let's put this Fanatec Podium DD to real next-gen use!!!
@get2sammyb @Quintumply Why was this article updated when the next State of Play hasn't been announced?
@KidBoruto The information was inaccurate, referring to a State of Play that had ended.
@get2sammyb Can't you just copy/paste into a new article instead of reusing this one?
@pimpjuice wasn't that a launch title for PS5? I'm confused at what game you are referencing.
@captainsandman
Any time a statement seems bizarre, reference the date.
@VanguardKaiser What are they going to talk about? Is the open world bigger with exclusive NFT's for all the versions of the games where ofcourse the most expensive does not get everything. 🤪
I dont ask much local saves for the PS5 and one more small thing a Legend of Dragoon remake or ill even take a remaster from Bluepoint. 😁
And one thing i dont care about Spartacus i dont game for value i game because i want great games.
Project Spartacus hopefully will be made official.
Resident Evil I hope, always hoping for that Onimusha leak to come to fruition, also Ace Attorney 7 or Battle Network collection.
I will not watch the Direct as I knew it will be rated M games all the time so I just only watch the live comment here.
I like how South America was just skipped in the timezones.
Whatever they plan to show I will keep my expectations in check.
I thought the first comment was just joking, saying he's hoping to hear more about ghost of Tsushima. Turns out to be from 2019 😅
Imagine replying to a comment from 2019
Sony better announce they bought the rights to metal gear and bring back kojima to either remake or create a new game. Remake would be incredible!
I'll be there for sure, should be fun to watch.
@JLaw1719 Wow, I didn't notice this was just an updated article with a bazillion old comments. I think they should just make a new article so all the comments are relevant.
Hello State of Play article, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
i will expect to see a god of war ragnarok release date and resident evil 4 remake
Sooooooooo excited!
@jdv Ghost of Tsushima 2!!!
@Areus almost 3 years later this comment is still holding up lol
@ArleKing i don't think we'll see anything at all about god of war, if anything they'll dedicate a whole state of play towards that game. from the reports this is 3rd party games only.
@jdv95 The movie? Or am I missing something?
After how well the last "state of play" was recieved, do we're really need to rush another one out? Can't they release these when they have gameplay or release date trailers?
@PhhhCough sony has been saying what is in each of play, idk why people are crying when they said last state of play was Japanese games related. and this one is just dedicated to the harry potter game. when they have god of war news to share they'll have their own state of play just for that game.
@twitchtvpat I would rather SoP show gameplay trailers, news or release date trailers. Even then, gameplay trailers aren't indicative of the finished product, ie cp2077, scalebound, etc.
Can we get new articles so the comment sections make sense and facilitate new discussions?
What's the purpose of having outdated comments under a new article?
lol yup took a few till I noticed the comments were from 2019. come on guys.
Yeah I was thinking why is there comments from 2019
This is just lazy, PushSquare. Comments from 3 years ago? 🤦♂️
@2here2there obviously it’s not an entirely new article. They just updated the old state of play with new info, dunno why it’s not like it cost to press publish new post button
I don't give a flying Fawkes about J.K and her "controversy". If what they show it's good, I'll be throwing my Galleons at the screen.
strange how this game has generated a fair amount of coverage...
I think they don't make a new article so that new users think that 178 comments is the norm.
@Lup Can I get a swimming fawk?
@2here2there to make it seem like there is huge engagement and thus to entice us to click on the article to see what the fuss is about.
@twitchtvpat yeah I guess I’ll have to wait a little bit longer
