Lets discuss the looming PlayStation showcase

[Yobo]

Bungie have their own showcase next week



If the rest of the showcase is that first section and a couple things from the second i’d be highly satisfied. They will most likely have some new 3rd party stuff though

Bungie will definitely be shown in some capacity now that the deal is closed

Maybe in a sizzle reel

Makes no sense

Sony just closed a 4 billion deal and they are going to flex that

I think he's talking about 1st party games @kyliethicc. I don't know actually. Probably for me it's going to be that China game Woo-something and ND's new IP game (hopefully it's the space one).

Agreed.

In my mind, thats what I keep thinking they are making lol I recall seeing it as a rumor, imagining it and was like "...well thats it, they are making that" and just continued to think that regardless of facts.

I need it being like Battlestar Galatica 2004 or The Expanse

That is a great idea! And yes, I agree - that would have been awesome.

True, but for all we know Sony buys Embracer Group in the future. lol

There is some crazy conspiracy theory that John Riccitiello left EA to have that group buy Bioware, only so EA could then buy the parent company. lol

Hear me out here
John Riccitiello leaves in 2004 to form some holding company
Feb 2007 John Riccitiello returns to EA as CEO...
Out 2007 EA buys that holding company to get Bioware and Pandemic.

(plays X-Files theme) lol

I would love rift apart DLC and Horizon DLC, the latter seems inevitable

There was a rumour they were making a Monster Hunter MP DLC for Horizon (kinda like GOT Legends) but then nothing was announced ☹

Hoping/expecting -

- Rivet spin off game (similar to Miles)
- Horizon Forbidden West expansion (im 100% expecting this to be at the showcase if it's not at Keighley's ONL)
- Teaser trailer for PixelOpus new game
- Teaser trailer for Bluepoint new game (hoping for a full fledged Jak & Daxter trilogy remake but expecting it to be a game I have zero interest)
- Helldivers 2 (same as HFW expansion)
- Spider Man 2 gameplay trailer / Fall 2023
- Something Bungie related
- Guerrilla Games second studio/team game reveal (led by the guy from Rainbow Six Siege)

And of course, plenty of third party stuff.

PSVR2*

I think Sony does a separate showcase for PSVR 2 closer to launch which if I had to bet would be March 2023.

This is what they said on their blog during the last update late july:

PS VR2 game developers will begin to access the latest user experience for PS VR2 in a new system software release coming soon as part of the ongoing development. There are lots of exciting things to look forward to for PS VR2, and we can’t wait to share more details about our next-generation virtual reality headset that takes a dramatic leap forward in gameplay innovation. We’ll share more information soon, including launch date and additional games coming to the platform.

That sounds imminent

 

[peter42O]

That sounds imminent

Sure, they could show some stuff on the showcase with the date and price but I still think they do a separate PSVR 2 showcase regardless. I can see trailers in September and then deep dives in the PSVR 2 showcase itself later on before release.

Personally, I have zero interest in VR gaming so im hoping that they don't show it at all during the September showcase and instead show me a few other games.

Thats exactly why they are gonna show it during the showcase lol

They know there’s a large segment of gamers not interesting in spending another 500 dollars on VR and wouldn’t turn into a VR dedicated showcase. But maybe they’ll get a few more eyes on it if they know theres gonna be a spider-man 2 trailer at the end

Factions Online after missing tlou 2 launch, ps5 launch, tlou p1 release, this holiday season? And the audacity showing up with concept art to SGF.

I'm personally sick of kojima-hassan-konami-sh-castlevania rumors. Since like Mid PS4 gen territory. Shit or get off the pot.

 

[Darth Vader]

I have very low expectations for this event to occur and even lower expectations for them to show anything worthy

Prob a good mindset to have

I wonder if they will reveal another sumo digital partnership game, give sackboy a rest and make a new ape escape game using the engine they used in sack boys big adventure

Sumo digital and Lucid are possible. Part of me still think Lucid is involved with the twisted metal game

the ps5 launch date was revealed on September 16th, 2020 and Launched November 12th, 2020, Do you think it is possible for PSVR to be revealed next month and actually launch this November of is 2023 a lock by now?

Maybe a really small team inside ND working with another studio on an Uncharted game with a studio like Ready at Dawn would be perfect.

What a missed opportunity it was Sony not buying Crystal Dynamics, with the guidance of ND I think they would be able to get it right this time. They could have introduced a new Lara in the Uncharted universe to reboot her series, one of the best game crossovers I can think off.
