State of Play is Sony’s regularly scheduled livestream show, which the platform holder’s committed to being a recurring event. The show will return this week on 25th February, with a focus on upcoming PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 software.
When Is Sony PlayStation’s State of Play Livestream?
Sony's announced that the next State of Play will take place on 25th February 2021. For a full breakdown of timezones, see below:
Thursday 25th February 2021
- North America: 2pm PST / 3pm MST / 4pm CST / 5pm EST
- UK/Ire: 10pm GMT
- Europe: 11pm CET / 12am EET
- Asia/Oceania: 7am JST / 6am AWST / 9am AEDT
Where Can You Watch the Next Sony PlayStation State of Play Livestream?
You'll be able to watch the next State of Play on Sony's official YouTube and Twitch accounts, through the respective links. We'll also bring you the State of Play right here on Push Square, along with live chat and reaction.
What Games Will Be Shown or Announced During State of Play?
According to Sony, we can look forward to 10 PS5 and PS4 games to be shown during the broadcast, consisting of "new updates and deep dives" as well as new game announcements. In terms of first-party titles, we'd anticipate fresh looks at Returnal and Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart. We're expecting to see some indies, too — think Stray, Jett: The Far Shore, and maybe Kena: Bridge of Spirits. Bigger budget games from third parties might include Resident Evil Village or Deathloop, but it's hard to predict.
As for new game announcements, we're less sure, but it would be very welcome if Naughty Dog showed off its multiplayer The Last of Us game, wouldn't it? Fortunately, we don't have long to wait.
How Long Will State of Play Be?
Sony has stated the State of Play presentation will be roughly 30 minutes in length.

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
