PlayStation’s next major showcase reportedly coming in September

Following Sony’s State of Play back in February, rumours popped up claiming that the console maker was thinking of hosting a full-blown PlayStation Showcase sometime this Summer. A couple months removed from the leak and it seems Sony has had a change of heart – with their next event reportedly now planned for September.

Known industry insider NateDrake recently responded to fan questions pertaining to a potential PlayStation event this Summer. According to Nate “I still haven't heard anything about a May event from Sony for this year.”

When asked to elaborate further on any potential Sony shows, Drake claimed that they “have not” heard of any such shows currently in the works.

Showcase Summer

Following this, another insider (this time ResetEra’s John Harker) offered somewhat of a timeline for Sony’s plans, stating that their next event is currently scheduled for sometime in September.

If this does wind up being the case, then it is quite likely that Sony’s next event will be a full-on PlayStation Showcase.

While little else is known beyond this, the impending arrival of Ghost of Yotei in October means that Sucker Punch’s upcoming release will likely feature quite heavily. We will have to wait and see.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
