PlayStation and Friends
[Update: There aren’t many highlights to go over for this understated State of Play lineup, but there are a few:Moss: Book II, new footage — and a delay into early 2022 — forSifu, and details about theDeath Stranding Director’s Cutfor PS5, which is a $10 upgrade.]
A new State of Play has been announced for later this week, featuring an extended look atDeathloopand a number of other titles. Just don’t expect to see some of the big first-party names there.
The show goes live on Thursday, July 8 at 5 p.m. ET / 2 p.m. PT, on bothYouTubeandTwitch. The full show will clock inat around 30 minutes, and feature an extended gameplay look atDeathloop, with both stealth and guns-blazing approaches to navigating Blackreef Island.
Deathloopis the one named game, though there will also be updates on “some exciting indie and third-party titles.” Sony does note that this will not have updates onHorizon Forbidden West, the nextGod of War, or the next generation of PlayStation VR. There will apparently be more updates soon this summer, though.
That might be a bummer for those hoping foraHorizonrelease date, but I’m hoping for some good indie news. State of Play is where we’veseen games likeSifubefore, and I’m definitely down to see more of that.
