Sony has officially announced the return of its highly anticipated State of Play event, set to take place tomorrow, February 12, 2025. After days of rumors and speculation, the company confirmed the details of the live broadcast, which promises to showcase a unique and creative lineup of game updates for the PS5. The event will kick off at 2 PM PT / 5 PM ET, which translates to 11 PM CET on February 12 and 7 AM JST on February 13. It will be streamed live on YouTube and Twitch, with broadcasts available in both English and Japanese.
The State of Play event is expected to run for over 40 minutes and will feature a variety of exciting announcements from studios worldwide. While Sony hasn’t revealed every detail, several rumored updates have already sparked significant buzz. Among these are potential reveals, such as a new trailer or update for Death Stranding 2 and hints of a new God of War installment, possibly set in the Greek saga. Other rumored highlights include details on the release date for Hell Is Us, as well as pricing, pre-order bonuses, and deluxe edition specifics that have recently leaked. Additionally, fans are anticipating the release date for Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, which has already been confirmed for August 28, 2025, alongside a new trailer set to drop on the PlayStation Store.
According to a new report, the next God of War game will focus on a young Kratos returning to Greece, contradicting earlier rumors that suggested an Egyptian setting. The latest information indicates the game will explore Kratos’ relationship with his father, Zeus, hinting that it could be a prequel or even a reboot of the series.
In addition to this, there are rumors circulating about a remastered version of the original God of War trilogy. This compilation, which would include all the Greek mythology-based games from the series, is reportedly set to be revealed in March 2025 to mark the 20th anniversary of the franchise. However, as with all rumors, these details should be taken with a grain of salt until officially confirmed by the developers.
