It shows glimpses of the various characters you can play, each with weapons and play styles catering to different players.

As Sony previously reiterated, Concord will be released on PC and PS5 on August 23. However, the studio will host a beta in July before that date.





God of War Ragnarok is coming to PC this September

Another first-party PlayStation project is on its way to PC. This time, it's Sony Santa Monica's 2022 action game God of War Ragnarok, which will arrive on PC on September 19.

After the State of Play, a PlayStation Blog post revealed that players must have a PlayStation Network account to play the PC version of God of War Ragnarok. This decision may be polarizing for some, as Sony was under fire for mandating a PSN account for PC versions of Helldivers 2 and Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut. However, the former escaped the PSN requirement after public outcry.

Monster hunter and astrobot salvaged it for me to a B, Concord looks okayish will have to see the monetisation before I jump in. Until Dawn is bottom of the barrel trash that should belong to the xbox stables

D grade even though I don't rate any shows this way. For me, it's all about how many games were shown (excluding VR/PC ports/remasters) and out of them, how many im interested in playing. Silent Hill 2 remake is 50/50 but Astro Bot looks fucking awesome. Percentage wise, State of Play was around 20% for me.

For me its a C, Path of Exile 2 is on my hot list, but I already knew what was announced.

Astrobot was Fabulous.

Until Dawn looked very good

There were some very pretty games on show with some excellent art design.

Concord looked like it should be a Netflix show.

A lot of games that just don't look like they are made for me.
