Live: Watch Sony PlayStation's State of Play Livestream Right Here (25th February, 2021)

Updates on ten PS5, PS4 titles

by Sammy Barker Thu 25th Feb 2021

It's the first State of Play livestream of 2021, and Sony's promising a 30-minute broadcast dedicated to ten upcoming PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 games. With the expectations appropriately calibrated, we're looking forward to updates on titles like Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart and Returnal, with hopefully a surprise or two along the way. Join us from 2PM PT/10PM GMT for all of the action.

State of Play: 25th February, 2021

22:33

Well, thanks for joining us everyone. Remember to stay calm.

22:32

No Ratchet & Clank. Blame Jim Ryan.

22:32

Final Fantasy VII Remake is a free upgrade.

22:30

We're getting a Digital Foundry-style comparison video. And in classic Digital Foundry fashion, they look practically identical.

22:29

And there's more...

22:29

Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade, coming 10th June.

22:27

This is an expanded version of Final Fantasy VII Remake, presumably DLC.

22:26

Final Fantasy VII Remake... On PS5...

22:24

To be fair, this James Bond-esque Deathloop trailer is pretty amazing. If you're not watching live, check it out when you can.

22:23

Now for the next obligatory State of Play update: Deathloop.

22:22

Kena: Bridge of Spirits launches on PS5, PS4 on 25th August.

22:21

The glorious Kena: Bridge of Spirits here to cheer us all up. It does look incredible, to be fair.

22:19

Oddworld: Soulstorm is coming 6th April, and it's free on PS Plus for PS5.

22:16

Five Nights at Freddy's: Security Breach is coming in 2021. And now it's time for the obligatory Oddworld update. Like every single State of Play since the beginning of time.

22:15

Yes, it's a new Five Nights at Freddy's game -- albeit a much higher budget one. Looks like a first-person horror game this time.

22:14

Sony absolutely loves Five Nights at Freddy's.

22:14

Solar Ash is coming to PS5 and PS4 later this year.

22:11

We're moving to Solar Ash next, with a full gameplay demo.

22:10

SIFU is a new beat-'em-up game coming to PS5, PS4 this year.

22:08

I feel like I'm the only person in the world who reckons this looks good.

22:07

Next we're transitioning to Knockout City, which was announced at the Nintendo Direct last week. EA ensuring this one gets plenty of marketing time.

22:06

Returnal transitions to a first-person perspective when you enter buildings. It looks very interesting.

22:04

And now we're getting a better look at Returnal, as expected. You may want to keep your eyes on the site later as well.

22:01

We're kicking up with a commercial (?) for Crash Bandicoot 4 on PS5. Mandatory marketing time.

22:00

State of Play is LIVE. Join us now for the latest on PS5, PS4.

22:00

Here we go, then... Our first State of Play of 2021 -- and some much-needed news for us to write about. Don't want to read any "slow news" comments until Monday!

21:59

One minute until State of Play. Join us LIVE.

21:59

In addition to updates on upcoming games, the PS Plus lineup for March will probably be announced today. So there's that to look forward to as well.

21:58

Any last minute predictions, then? Always best to keep expectations low, as I doubt we'll be seeing any megatons tonight. Surely, more Returnal and Ratchet & Clank gameplay beckons, though?

21:57

Five minutes until State of Play gets underway. Join us!

21:04

get2sammyb said:

Hope they announce Japan Studio's next game today!

15:30

State of Play will go live at 2PM PT / 10PM GMT. Any predictions?

Pditty1980 said:

im late to the showcase, but so far SIFU looks really cool

rjejr said:

I'm guessing the FF7R free upgrade rules out PS+

Voltan said:

The lack of a PS Plus announcement was weird

Pleasance said:

Woof.

themightyant said:

Things can always be better and thought they missed a BIG “one more thing” but I liked what they had

TowaHerschel7 said:

So literally no PS+ next month? 🤔

rjejr said:

Honest question - how many were PS5 exclusive? Returnal and FNAF?

Spyroescape said:

Was a state of play really necessary just to show that...

LieutenantFatman said:

true, it was ok

AFCC said:

So we don't know what's in PS Plus for March

Voltan said:

Lol it wasn't that bad

TrueAssassin86x said:

Im off to possiblely boot up final fantasy 7 remake later all

ShiningStar said:

I hope Sony will refund me for that 30 minutes of life I can't get back

lol goodnight everyone

nessisonett said:

Pretty grim tbh night all

Waluigi999 said:

the comment section is going to be fun tomorrow

LordSteev said:

good night

That’s 30 minutes I won’t get back

Wasn’t expecting a Silent Hill or Bloodborne but that was definitely underwhelming. I’d have been ok with a TLOU or Death Strandig update

corona has taken the best of gaming for sure..remakes remasters and endless game porting..

KundaliniRising333 said:

well we at least wasted our time, as one.

Just_2_milky said:

lol hopefully pokemon direct will be better

I'm off. Thanks for the chat, guys

Have a lovely evening / day

Good night

Good night guys

QBGaming12 said:

Those were good games. Solar Ash, and Kena looked great.

rjejr said:

Id say I'm equally disappointed, at least this was 20minutes shorter.

Looking forward to more FF7

DeepSpace5D said:

Well Solar Ash, Returnal, and Kena for me. But those were games I already knew about. Disappointing.

LordSteev said:

previews over, does state of play start now?

waste of time. this was mediocre

Did they forget they have a new console to sell or something?

nessisonett said:

Aren't you glad you bought that £450 console?

TowaHerschel7 said:

So uh...are we not getting PS+ freebies in March?

Nintendo and Sony, stick to Twitter announcements. You suck at livestreams

KundaliniRising333 said:

who in the PR department was like "yeah this will blow their minds!"

Terrible state of play

Blooper987 said:

Not a single new game I think

Vivisapprentice said:

At least we get oddworld

This looked more like the state of mobile games than anything having to do with a brand new console

well I for one am certainly feeling the suck

Was great for me

so it was basically every game we've seen, Kena gets pushed to Aug and DLC for FF7R, wowzer

Where's the ps plus announcement?

TrueAssassin86x said:

The Direct was better for me 8 games Vs 3

themightyant said:

was good for me, Kena FF7R, odd world, solar. Ash, and sifu all looked goid

jdv95 said:

this was a pointless state of play? why delay the plus game reveal and not show it here?

Just_2_milky said:

booo

you know it's bad when you wished they did show GTAV

Medic_Alert said:

Oh the comments on this one are gonna be good!

MickOnYourFace said:

Just set fire to me PS5, going playing Xbox

Current covid situation has really hit gaming hard hasn't it

Blooper987 said:

Nintendo Direct rules once again

well that was utterly deflating

Insightful said:

Huge letdown. Later peeps.

waste of time

KonkeyDong64 said:

State of Disappintment

LordSteev said:

i saw this last spring?

KundaliniRising333 said:

Sony wtf.....

AFCC said:

That's 30 min we will never get back xD

EVIL-C said:

Nintendo Direct was better. lol.

Free upgrade

nessisonett said:

Dear lord it made the Direct look good

DeepSpace5D said:

FF& remake PS5 version and DLC was seriously the closer?

ouch

ShiningStar said:

we been trolled by Sony, big time!! lol

themightyant said:

is that 10 June or 6 Oct?

Just_2_milky said:

Ehhh

one more thing

WOW

jdv95 said:

so what are the plus games?

KundaliniRising333 said:

wow

MickOnYourFace said:

Why even bother buying a SE game when they just release a better version a year later

thegreatniro said:

no ps plus announcements?

Blooper987 said:

That was trash

ShiningStar said:

the new word 'intergrade' was the best part about that

rjejr said:

June 10, day before R&C?

KundaliniRising333 said:

F that

fair play free upgrade

LordSteev said:

thats why it's been so long between state of plays. nothing to share

Vincent294 said:

Free upgrade with DLC to purchase is best approach

That can't be it

KundaliniRising333 said:

lmfao yuffie costs money

nessisonett said:

Yuffie isn't free

Wow, this SoP was WAY worse than the ND. We got at least two big exclusives announced in that

nessisonett said:

Wonder if that version'll be the PC version then

AFCC said:

I love all the weird names they find LOL

Just_2_milky said:

thank goodness

Vincent294 said:

Nice!

EVIL-C said:

@Blooper987 Easily.

Insightful said:

Sifu looked good but that's about it imo.

Is it seriously exclusive to the PS5 version? It'd better not be, you jerks

Voltan said:

Guess I'll have to play this again lol

GamingFan4Lyf said:

I lost my completion save game to this, so when I get a PS5, I might have a reason to return - assuming this is a free upgrade

Blooper987 said:

Can we all agree the Nintendo Direct was a masterpiece compared to this?

AFCC said:

Photo mode is cool

KundaliniRising333 said:

is this their concluding announcement?!

nessisonett said:

Will they fix the insane lip syncing on NPCs?

LordSteev said:

Im tired of this game all over again

ThroughTheIris56 said:

Graphical effectsthat you barely notice when comapred side by side, I'm sold on a new console

ShiningStar said:

next gen upgrade? colour me underwhelmed.

TrueAssassin86x said:

Ok i need to play 7 remastered sooner rather then later

Oh, did they fix the PS1 background textures on PS5?

Blooper987 said:

The game is very slightly brighter. Best announcement ever

I LIKE IT

Insightful said:

Lol. This was anti-climactic.

Fog effects, I'm sold

themightyant said:

far more atmospheric

Waluigi999 said:

the only difference i care about is if it is free on psplus

nessisonett said:

Lighting is better but the game already looked great tbh

rjejr said:

Someone should tell them its a 1080p live stream,

LordSteev said:

wow, not a huge difference

Looks the same on my end

AFCC said:

this looks like a prank xD

themightyant said:

lighting looks lovely

MickOnYourFace said:

No way this will be a free upgrade

Blooper987 said:

literally only difference i can see is shadows

I can't tell the difference

Final Fantasy 7 Remake 1.5 Interlude

AFCC said:

LOOK AT THAT DIFFERENCE OH WOW

nessisonett said:

Wow it's night and night

Digre of Cerebrus stuff...

AFCC said:

Maybe by 2030 we can play Tlou on PS5 and we have faction

nessisonett said:

Intergrade lmao

Vivisapprentice said:

I'm sure they said there's be no dlc last year

themightyant said:

nomura naming

So episodic AND upgrades lol

@kundalinRising33 yep

Just_2_milky said:

Remake: The Remake

AFCC said:

So when's the next State of Play?

KundaliniRising333 said:

wow they are going to milk every dollar out of this game arent they

Insightful said:

No way this'll be ps plus.

Blooper987 said:

more Yuffie may be the one that makes me actually play this game. Really don't care for FF

nessisonett said:

Not sure about the extremely generic dude who looks like he's called Spoon from my pixellated stream

I mean, I loved FF7R, even with the stupid ending

Vivisapprentice said:

Looks good

KundaliniRising333 said:

lmfao

DLC, I guess.

nessisonett said:

You're supposed to jump me in a forest hun

Blooper987 said:

dangit misspelled it lol

TrueAssassin86x said:

DLC?

rjejr said:

Bouncer. Ha ha ha ha ha

Yuffie?!

Vivisapprentice said:

Yuffie!!

nessisonett said:

Oh wow Yuffie

Blooper987 said:

YUFI!!!!!

WOAH

TrueAssassin86x said:

Blugh i own this games and its in my backlog

BOUNCER!

jdv95 said:

Blooper987 said:

I LIKE IT

@ness Stop playing an hour before the end and you're good.

KundaliniRising333 said:

ps5 version already announced, better be free upgrade

EVIL-C said:

Boooo should've been LOU2 coming to PS5

Final Fantasy !!!

themightyant said:

gimme

nessisonett said:

Please update the story to be good

DeepSpace5D said:

rjejr said:

Rumour true?!?!?!?!?!

rachetmarvel said:

This better be on psplus

AFCC said:

themightyant said:

Just_2_milky said:

OHHH

Blooper987 said:

yeah

Voltan said:

ooooooh

AFCC said:

Tlou 2

LordSteev said:

nothing new here

nessisonett said:

Oh yeah I forgot about SIFU

TrueAssassin86x said:

I have to say Deathloop looks good but i need at Ps5 first

themightyant said:

ness Sifu was new I think

Pffftt Gawd I need to Crush a Grape......very disappointing.

jdv95 said:

only 1. a state of play was not needed tbh

AFCC said:

GTA 5 PS5 Shark Card Edition next

get2sammyb said:

I'm guessing Ratchet & Clank will wrap this up, and that's your lot.

skippp

Waluigi999 said:

where is BOTW2

They have time for only one maybe 2 games

Vivisapprentice said:

Must be maquette for ps plus March then?

KundaliniRising333 said:

no one cares

Blooper987 said:

@ness don't think so

KundaliniRising333 said:

i swear if they show GTA 5 for ps5, ill be pissed

OK, this has gone on for a while

nessisonett said:

Has there actually been any new announcements?

rjejr said:

I'm still waiting for Sunset Overdrive 2

LordSteev said:

ok, returnal and deathloop

Oh yeah, delays are always better than unfinished games

jdv95 said:

or horizon

DeepSpace5D said:

guess we're closing with Ratchet?

themightyant said:

yes Kena was delayed sadly, but I’d rather that than another cp 2077

AFCC said:

The gameplay in this looks really good but something feels off idk

i like it

Insightful said:

This'll be day one Game Pass when it comes to Xbox. Bring it!

KundaliniRising333 said:

hopefully this game differentiates itself enoguh

Nice song. Game still looks bland.

August 🤣

I just checked preorders Returnal is 80 euros!

nessisonett said:

Arkane have done some alright stuff so I'll trust them

KundaliniRising333 said:

i feel like Arkane just recycles core gameplay mechanics around a new story

jdv95 said:

this could have been the 007 project theme

Snake Eaterrrrrr

Blooper987 said:

Have they announced any brand new games yet? These have all been shown off before

KundaliniRising333 said:

totally 007

rjejr said:

VERY 007

This does kinda sound like spy music, haha

AFCC said:

007 music

So Kena was delayed, I guess? I thought it was coming out sooner?

rjejr said:

Aaaarrrrggghhh typos galore

MickOnYourFace said:

Announce Timesplitters you cowards

themightyant said:

arkane have my trust

LordSteev said:

arkane is quality

Luminous117 said:

Still not interested

Insightful said:

Kena, i mean

themightyant said:

this is game 9

nessisonett said:

This bloody game does look good but I've seen so many trailers

DeepSpace5D said:

The 70s vibe of Deathloop doesn't click with me

TrueAssassin86x said:

Damn i thought Kena was march

ouch! Kena for PS Plus March theory, destroyed in a single still picture

Blooper987 said:

ok. I was interested in this one

Not interested, no matter how many times they show it

AFCC said:

Deathloop...hurray...yawn

Insightful said:

Another tps over the shoulder action game on PlayStation. There are so many of them.

rjejr said:

May have to get Men'

EVIL-C said:

Whooo deathloop

LordSteev said:

yeay!!!

Vincent294 said:

Arkane!

KundaliniRising333 said:

yeah its combat that worries me with Kena, but looks awesome

@Voltan That is insane

AFCC said:

That bubble ability she does looks really bad lol

LordSteev said:

project athiea?

Kena looks good

nessisonett said:

Combat is very Horizon tbh

rjejr said:

Knack 3 c

The cut scenes look gorgeous. Really well directed. Game looks alright too!

Vivisapprentice said:

Developed by a company that usually does CG short films

Voltan said:

@Ralizah - not only that, it's the devs' debut game

themightyant said:

Massively looking forward to Kena!

crimsontadpoles said:

this does look really good

So... Kena is an independently developed game? It looks gorgeous.

Blooper987 said:

Kena is the best thing so far

nessisonett said:

Kena does look really interesting

rjejr said:

They're all Xboxen to me. Thanks though insightful

Voltan said:

Beautiful

DeepSpace5D said:

Kemna looks so good

Ryno said:

Day 0

ok this looks great

i like it

OG Silent Hill will always be my favorite. SH2 is great, but a lot slower and less oppressively scary

DeepSpace5D said:

first 3*

Insightful said:

Kameo was 360 launch title

DeepSpace5D said:

the first 2 Silent Hills were all amazing and all time classics in the horror genre

nessisonett said:

Fight me

MickOnYourFace said:

@rjejr under-rated game!

KundaliniRising333 said:

this animation looks pretty solid

TrueAssassin86x said:

Anything for March plus games yet?

nessisonett said:

Silent Hill 2 is the greatest game ever made

@Ralizah TBH games after SH4 they are not that bad IMHO. I still prefer the two first games

jdv95 said:

ah ok,because downpour is not that bad tbh

rjejr said:

Anybody remember Kameo on Xbox?

KundaliniRising333 said:

why people are all drooling for silent hill is beyond me, they were never that great and only got worse

SH4 is absolutely inferior to the original trilogy, but it still has some cool ideas in it

Blooper987 said:

Looks like a Pixar movie

DeepSpace5D said:

4 was The Room

MickOnYourFace said:

Knack 2 PS+ announcement

nessisonett said:

Nah The Room

jdv95 said:

was 4 downpour?

AFCC said:

This does look good af

nessisonett said:

Silent Hill 4 is underrated but also a total mess

Blooper987 said:

This look beautiful

TrueAssassin86x said:

Oddword for me thanks

@belmont I stopped after SH4. No desire to play the ***ized Western-developed ones.

jdv95 said:

note that it saif for next mon th though. we still don't know the march games

LordSteev said:

this feels like deja vu

Vivisapprentice said:

Kena for March psplus here we go

Voltan said:

Oddworld for PS Plus - great news

@Ralizah I would love a new Silent Hill. I have all previous games

themightyant said:

true assassin, depends who you ask. I liked returnal, sifu, solar ash and odd world and kena

Ryno said:

booyah

Finally

Waluigi999 said:

wow

Voltan said:

Yes Kenaaa

yesss

Vivisapprentice said:

Yeah boy, just over a month away and on plus

rachetmarvel said:

nice,Kena time.

Ah, there you go.

AFCC said:

were people really expecting god of war, horizon, gta 6? XD

rjejr said:

This will end with Kratos in Smash

KundaliniRising333 said:

looks like a ps3 game

We need Silent Hill now

LordSteev said:

come on sony

Vincent294 said:

Can't wait

jdv95 said:

oh i thout it was only 20

KundaliniRising333 said:

lmfao

i like it

Insightful said:

Looks like an indie showcase.

AFCC said:

2? It's 30 min

I mean, I'd try this if it was on PS+

12*

Blooper987 said:

It's already more than halfway over

DeepSpace5D said:

this is a remake of part 2 which was the best in the series for most.

jdv95 said:

lol only 2 more minutes left lol

The world of Oddworld is really interesting, The games kinda ride on that.

DeepSpace5D said:

these remakes are newer version of Oddworld 1 and 2

TrueAssassin86x said:

17 minutes late did i miss anything worthwhile

nessisonett said:

It kinda reminds me of Rayman minus the fun

@belmont OMG one of those demo discs was my first exposure to Silent Hill. Terrifying. It dropped you in the elementary school

LordSteev said:

these are still the previews, right?

jdv95 said:

good old gaming magazines

Voltan said:

This is so old school

rjejr said:

I think Oddworld would make a better Muppet Netflix show than game.

Blooper987 said:

This just looks boring tbh

@Ralizah I played on a demo CD I got from a magazine or a shop

DeepSpace5D said:

ya they changed the genre in later entries

Ryno said:

Never played an Oddworld game and never will.

Weren't the last few oddworld games shooters or something? Or am I lost and confused?

DeepSpace5D said:

never played new and tasty yet though

this is basically just he same state of play as the last two combined. yawn so far

DeepSpace5D said:

th games are great I loved the originals

@belmont I played that one for, like, an hour on a friend's console.

KundaliniRising333 said:

basically this State of Play is saying "get ready for a bunch of game delays!"

Vivisapprentice said:

Abe release date finally?

DeepSpace5D said:

its 2d platformer/puzzler basically

This is the first game I actually want to play, big fan of Oddworld

jdv95 said:

lol sammy getting anoyed

@Ralizah Neither have I except the very first psone game

nessisonett said:

I'm utterly confused as to what this is even supposed to be genre wise

LordSteev said:

so far, returnal and thats about it

AFCC said:

I was actually scared of Abe when I was a kid lol

Blooper987 said:

Same

Never played any of these games.

Waluigi999 said:

this looks awesome

jdv95 said:

next time show a REAL horror game

themightyant said:

yes! Odd world

rjejr said:

Not Wonder book, those were better than this.

i like it

Blooper987 said:

might try it. I've wanted to try the first one

RichardUK said:

Well I’m not spending any money yet

cHiLlInG

Ryno said:

@rjejr: Movie Mini game?

youtube reaction videos have a lot to answer for

nessisonett said:

@rjejr Lmao one of the ones that came with an interactive book

KundaliniRising333 said:

uhmmmm, why?

rachetmarvel said:

Why do some of this games look like they were made in dDeams.

rjejr said:

This looks like an early PS Move game. Not a complement.

loool

Blooper987 said:

It honestly needs to look scarier. Kinda too kidsy

Greatness awaits

LordSteev said:

i just cant be scared by robot chickens

DeepSpace5D said:

wow you can actually move around finally

jdv95 said:

"scary" game

skip

DeepSpace5D said:

this is like a full game tho about fnaf?

This looks better than the older games, at least

This is what people want right?

nessisonett said:

Why does the character design look like a really really low budget drag race

Voltan said:

Too creepy for me

Waluigi999 said:

this is making the nintendo direct look good

AFCC said:

lol the dolls look hilarious

themightyant said:

not my cup of T tho

Hahahaha

Five Nights at Freddys

Blooper987 said:

Looks good. Don't know about it tho

jdv95 said:

urgh

David?

nessisonett said:

The furries will be happy

themightyant said:

Snake, Snaaaake

jdv95 said:

oh get out

nessisonett said:

Strong 2013 vibes

lmao

themightyant said:

David hayter

Solar Ash looks like DmC meets SotC

Silent Hill?

AFCC said:

PT remake

Blooper987 said:

FNAF?

lol

MickOnYourFace said:

Jet Set Radio of the Colossus

That looked nice

Blooper987 said:

nice. might try it on PS4

ShiningStar said:

not impressed by any of this stuff so far. even the narrators sound bored

At least the music in HLD was good.

crimsontadpoles said:

basically shadow of the colossus there

KundaliniRising333 said:

good god, this state of play is going to be garbo...

nessisonett said:

The map is cursed hahaha

AFCC said:

The music is dope

Voltan said:

Looks cool, I like it

I like it

@ness The map system, lack of explicit narrative, and weird art style didn't work for me. It was a competent action indie, but... meh.

LordSteev said:

maybe for free on plus

DeepSpace5D said:

the traversal looks so much like The Pathless

Vivisapprentice said:

Looks like Fe and The Pathless had a baby

Blooper987 said:

This does look like a 3D HLD lol

lol solar ash gives me motion sickness

I like the speed

@Blooper A lot of people like it, so you might very well might

rjejr said:

Ah, Hyper light drifter, that ex

nessisonett said:

It would never live up to the hype for me Ral but it's alight

Blooper987 said:

@Ralizah Really? I have it but I haven't gotten to playing it yet

nessisonett said:

I quite like HLD so this could be good

Hyper Light Drifter was disappointing

themightyant said:

nice solar ash

DeepSpace5D said:

oh ya been watin to hear more of this

Blooper987 said:

looks like a much more modern beat em up game

themightyant said:

interested

Hopefully not full price

I like it

rachetmarvel said:

Sifu looks like it was made in Dreams.

LordSteev said:

afu

Could be a fun PS+ game.

Ryno said:

That's it, I am selling my PS5

Super Corridor Fighter 2!!!

rjejr said:

I remember this scene from Daredevil on Netflix.

AFCC said:

The corridor Scene from Oldboy the game

Voltan said:

This is something new

Blooper987 said:

New beat em up?

AFCC said:

Sleeping Dogs 2

themightyant said:

Like the art style

nessisonett said:

Returnal looks interesting if you've never played a roguelike

AFCC said:

If it's not on PSplus it's dead already

Luminous117 said:

Returnal looks interesting

Blooper987 said:

it looks fine. It's just kinda generic

@crimsontadpoles We can only hope.

Ryno said:

Everybody trying to make the next Rocket League

i like it

rjejr said:

If they announce this for PSVR it's ok.

jdv95 said:

atleast it's not a pvp shooter

crimsontadpoles said:

they must be saving all the good stuff to the end

AFCC said:

This looks fun, don't be so harsh

Voltan said:

At least we can safely say there was nothing to those "leaks" earlier

LordSteev said:

lol at ralizah

nessisonett said:

At least the horrific trailer isn't on

rjejr said:

Deja vu, but not in a good way.

This is absolutely what I'll buy a $500 console to play

DeepSpace5D said:

oh nvm thats right it was at ND

Dodgeball is so much fun to actually play. Not sure if there has ever been a good video game of it

Blooper987 said:

so bland looking

LordSteev said:

a solid no

Ryno said:

This is a @Rjejr game if I have ever seen one.

Please no more Knockout City...

DeepSpace5D said:

This might be the ps plus announcement I have a feeling

It's like the Nintendo Direct without the one or two good announcements

Blooper987 said:

We know. Nintendo beat you to it sony

rjejr said:

April 30th, same day as New Pokemon Snap! 😎

SONY...quit copying Nintendo's Direct!!

Just_2_milky said:

didnt like it in the ND

Waluigi999 said:

7 mins gone already

nessisonett said:

It's Raid Shadow Legends

Just_2_milky said:

no this

AFCC said:

Plus game

LordSteev said:

lets not?

Oh god

Blooper987 said:

UGH

EVIL-C said:

Returnal looks cool

Just_2_milky said:

oh please no

Ryno said:

Lol, sorry for bringing up PS5. Anyway can I mute that gril on Returnal

I LIKE IT

Could be good

Blooper987 said:

meh

DeepSpace5D said:

well thats something I guess

DeepSpace5D said:

oh wow first person segments.

AFCC said:

Is this the PT remake?

jdv95 said:

lol people where pissed when gta v enhanced was revealed

nessisonett said:

The PS4 version does look noticeably dodgy of GTA V especially coming off PC

LordSteev said:

buying this if i find a 5

Man, what could people possibly want from GTA V at this point?

Ryno said:

Where is GTAV???

That looked cool

nessisonett said:

Even the way enemies appear

rjejr said:

Serious Sam: IN SPACE!!!!! 😁

It's very grey :/

nessisonett said:

Oh man the similarities to Risk of Rain 2 are fairly obvious

DeepSpace5D said:

gameplay does look sick though

This game is gonna bomb at the price point it's debuting at. Poor Housemarque, LOL

LordSteev said:

best looking monsters

"feel the suck with the Dualsense" - I'm sure there are some out there even more eagerly anticipating GTA6 now

Ryno said:

LOL, you shut up

Expected, but not interested.

rjejr said:

This looks legit good, these live streams usually lag a lot for me.

AFCC said:

People already complaining LOL shut up please

nessisonett said:

Ok Ariana

Waluigi999 said:

weak start

Ryno said:

Thank you, next

LordSteev said:

clock is ticking

Spending a lot of time on a game that's been out for awhile. Not boding well.

jdv95 said:

the suck is the defining next gen feature

DeepSpace5D said:

already too much time spent on this one

LordSteev said:

the suck is all

rjejr said:

I legit thought this was R&C when it started. 😂

AFCC said:

Feel the suck!

get2sammyb said:

I too want to "really feel the suck"

AFCC said:

This game is so hard lol

Blooper987 said:

wow. i actually like this

Meh

DeepSpace5D said:

PS5 version

DLC?

themightyant said:

what neasisonett said

We are going to see some amazing graphics and everyone will be happy

rjejr said:

Let's a go!

LordSteev said:

biomutant would be good

themightyant said:

My body is ready

nessisonett said:

Please be better than Nintendo

Voltan said:

I tuned in to the ND when it was like halfway through. I don't even own a Switch so it was just curiosity but it wasn't very interesting.

jdv95 said:

could biomutant make an appearance? it comes out in may

rjejr said:

Finally someone said Knack 3, was beginning to lose faith.

Nintendo Direct wasn't great, although Triangle Strategy partially salvaged it

AFCC said:

Death Stranding 2, Knack 3 and GTA 6 or sony already lost.

jdv95 said:

i only heard it was a bit of a letdown. and that it has been more then a year since they had one

rjejr said:

65 seconds

AFCC said:

Silent Hill

The ND was slim pickings for sure (but wow, is project triangle brilliant!0

LordSteev said:

no, thankfully

DeepSpace5D said:

maybe a new Ratchet & Clank: RA level

rjejr said:

So, anybody here sit thru 50 minutes of the ND? I'm hoping to happier when this is over, that's all I ask.

jdv95 said:

some proper music would have been nice. maybe some game soundtracks

LordSteev said:

nick of time

Voltan said:

Good evening everyone. Not gonna lie, I'm kinda hyped.

Pffftt

LieutenantFatman said:

oi oi

Luminous117 said:

Nice countdown clock

picking it up rather. I don't ferment my games in vinegar

LordSteev said:

haha, true

No I can't either to be honest. But I got home half an hour ago after pickling it up - sod's law says it absolutely MUST be march's PS Plus game if I open it

LordSteev said:

me too long as i don't stare

jdv95 said:

kena makes sense. it's supposed to release this month and no sign of a delay,plus jim ryan saying he want more brand new games on plus

rjejr said:

I don't care what anyone says, I'm a huge fan of the countdown clock. 👍

LordSteev said:

i cant see TLOU2 being free

2- If I can open The LAst of Us 2 which I picked up @£14.99 at argos (cos I'll know what the PS Plus games are)

1 - what the PS Plus games are

Lord, I'm making a drink. This music is making me miserable!

Can't wait to find out:

LordSteev said:

if they give kena away, i'm member for life

LordSteev said:

yep, loved it day 1, want to see whats changed

jdv95 said:

kena

DeepSpace5D said:

if they are saving the PS plus games announcement for this state of play, one would think the titles are solid.

jdv95 said:

that game is a trip. very cool

LordSteev said:

just dl'd control, gotta catch up

jdv95 said:

if anything HFW is revealed it will be a success for me. plus a good PS plus month

Luminous117 said:

LordSteev said:

Hope it's not foreshadowing the SoP lol

jdv95 said:

oh yeah that was just bang on. i was already sold on the ps5 though

LordSteev said:

the first ten seconds were great

LordSteev said:

yep

This music is a tad barren.

jdv95 said:

2021 tag at the end of teaser always felt like a PR push to me.

DeepSpace5D said:

GoW probably too far out to be included in this SoP. 30 min long, only so much can be shown.

LordSteev said:

id be shocked

jdv95 said:

oh i don't expect anyhting GOW related. no way that game comes out this year

jdv95 said:

was thinking about that aswell.

LordSteev said:

that might happen

DeepSpace5D said:

Factions would be nice.

Not sure it should be 14 minutes long though!

LordSteev said:

Baldurs Gate remake with Unreal 5

jdv95 said:

yeah i like the new waiting screen. it has that premium vibe to it

I hope we get some Final Fantasy news on any capacity although I doubt it

Ryno said:

This is going to be GTA blowout. GTA V plus Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy. PS5 versions.

LordSteev said:

hehe

I feel like I'm about to be told to turn my phone off in the cinema!

LordSteev said:

love that preshow music

Hi all!

DeepSpace5D said:

gta v has been out forever but the new gen enhancements actually sound pretty cool.

Oh few

AAAaaaah....we are falling!!!

jdv95 said:

watch gta v enhanced edition show up lol

Ryno said:

I would love another Bushido Blade, that was one of my first PSX games.

And Bishi Bashi needs to come back

LordSteev said:

Im with Ryno!

DeepSpace5D said:

never say never but probably unlikely

Any chance of a new Bushido Blade?

Ryno said:

Half Life 3 PS5 Exclusive, LET'S GOOOOOO!

jdv95 said:

maybe it's about time for that secret an diego game to finally reveal itself

LordSteev said:

wouldn't silent hill be a pleasant surprise!

jdv95 said:

eh i don't know. returnal is sony's next big game so i guess they will ramp up the marketing. as for new stuff? other then siletn hill i cn't think of anything realistic

Luminous117 said:

Here's hoping for more Ratchet & Clank

LordSteev said:

that's too bad, I think it's going to be great

DeepSpace5D said:

I feel like people already made their mind up about it just because it has the word roquelike in it

LordSteev said:

yes

DeepSpace5D said:

does Returnal need a deep dive with all the video releases it's gotten though?

KonkeyDong64 said:

And a surprise Horizon Zero Dawn of TLOU2 PS5 update would be nice too

LordSteev said:

anything new you think?

jdv95 said:

deepdive for ratchet and returnal. all the other games will be third party and indies i'm betting

KonkeyDong64 said:

I better get a PS5 version of Life of the Black Tiger and Skylight Freerange 2

No expectations so hopefully no disappointment.

LordSteev said:

i just hope they've got something good, and I'm not all hyped for nothing

AFCC said:

Ready for Death Stranding 2, boys?

jdv95 said:

i would say trailer. gameplay will be kept for horizon dedicated state of play later

DeepSpace5D said:

Thats what im hoping for, H:FW gameplay

LordSteev said:

HFW Gameplay video, it could happen...

I want Kena so bad, need to finally secure a PS5

DeepSpace5D said:

that would be crazy

jdv95 said:

FF7 remake and kena for playstation plus calling it

DeepSpace5D said:

whats up peeps

DeepSpace5D said:

the trick to getting a ps5 is following the right people on twitter

LordSteev said:

chips, salsa, and Orange flavored Monster, snacks are ready. Not sure about the combo, though.

State of play...you can't find a PS5

Hi everyone

Blooper987 said:

First time watching a state of play. Any hope of Danganronpa content or no?

batwing47 said:

I'm with you man. Got a feeling that Japan Studio and Anthem are gonna have huge showings

ThroughTheIris56 said:

Can't wait to see something from Japan Studio

Hi

LordSteev said:

Todd Howard is my god.

LordSteev said:

lol

AFCC said:

Hello my friends!

batwing47 said:

Gonna have Todd Howard stop by and talk about how they were able to leverage the power of the PS5 to pack "16 times the detail" into Knack 3.

LordSteev said:

Hey

Hi

batwing47 said:

KNACK 3 BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

jdv95 said:

here's hoping for a horizon trailer. most likely not though.

LocalPenguin said:

It'll be tough though given the wait lol

LocalPenguin said:

I'd love to see some Gran Turismo.

LordSteev said:

Sony secretly closed the deal for exclusivity on Starfield before Microsoft bought Bethesda, and it's coming out Friday on PS only.

Areus said:

Sony Announcing That They Are Shuting Down All Of their Studios And Going 3rd Party Starting With Knack 3

Terra said:

Not even downsizing can stop Knack 3

LordSteev said:

1,2...3?
