And that's a wrap on this latest State of Play. What did you think of the show? That's got to be a top tier presentation in my book.

4v4 tag battles have been shown, and they look as chaotic as they sound.

It's called Marvel Toukon Fighting Souls - what a name! It's coming to PS5 and PC in 2026.

Another PlayStation Studios announcement! A Marvel collaboration with fighting game giants Arc System Works developing!

It looks like an awful lot of fun. Almost like Marvel vs Capcom - minus the Capcom, of course.

That sure is a new Ghost of Yotei trailer, with our protagonist Atsu camping out above a little village.

We get a look at her not so cuddly canine companion, plus confirmation of a gameplay deep dive coming in July.

Oooh, a PlayStation Studios announcement.

007 First Light, with plenty of spy shenanigans and some Aston Martin driving being shown. That seems about right to me!

Time for a trailer for that James Bond game from Io Interactive that we've been hearing so much about lately!

New PS Plus Classics Games now!

Here is what is being announced:

• Deus Ex
• Twisted Metal 3
• Twisted Metal 4
• Resident Evil 2
• Resident Evil 3
• Myst
• Riven

Now onto FBC: Firebreak, another Game Catalog title coming on June 17.

That's Sword of the Sea, so not quite a Journey sequel, but close enough in my books. It will be part of the PS Plus Premium game catalog.

A new Journey game? I'm seeing deserts on screen...

Another super colorful game here, with a pirate twist. I'm loving the almost wooden doll-like look of the characters.

It's called Sea and Remnants, coming 2026.

The Astrobot Limited Edition DualSense is also coming back, with a "slight twist" - whatever that means. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

A new Astro Bot announcement now! Five brand new challenge levels are coming to the game, available later this month.

There will also be new special bots, such as Atsu from Ghost of Yotei.

A new multiplayer game from the Road 96 devs next. It's got a lovely colorful art direction and I'm seeing all kinds of parkour and masked enemies.

It's called Tides of Tomorrow, coming out on February 4, 2026.

That's Thief VR Legacy of Shadow, coming to PSVR 2.

A new game from Vertigo Games, definitely a virtual reality project. I'm getting big Thief vibes from this one!

A Nioh 3 demo is going to be available today! There goes my sleep schedule, I guess.

Confirmed!

That's Nioh 3, set to come out some time in early 2026.

A new Koei Tecmo game! Some kind of Nioh follow-up? I'm seeing some massive boss-fights, and lots of soulsike combat.

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater now, looking absolutely stunning as usual. Lots of boss fights in this little trailer, plus a look at the iconic Snake vs Monkey mode.

Official fight stick revealed!

New hardware reveal - this wasn't something on my bingo card. An official fightstick, made by Sony themselves. How promising!

That's called Mortal Kombat Legacy Kollection, coming this year to PS5 and PS4.

Now a new game collection from the preservation geniuses over at Digital Eclipse!

It looks like it will be Mortal Kombat focussed, and could be an absolute treat for Mortal Kombat fans.

Carin has been shown, coming on November 5. This climbing game will have a demo available later today, so keep an eye out for that if you're keen to try it.

Ninja Gaiden Ragebound now, a 2D action game from the Blasphemous devs. Blasphemous and Blasphemous 2 were both superb experiences, so there's plenty of reason to get excited for this. It will be available on July 31, 2025.

Everybody's Golf is coming back! Everybody's Golf Hot Shots, coming September 5. If you pre-order, you'll get to play as Pac-Man!

A very adorable looking game up next, Hirogami! I really like what I've seen of this one, especially its paper-craft artstyle.

Another September release, this time September 3.

An indie game here - Baby Steps. This little puzzle game (if you can really call it that) is an open-world experience that challenges you to walk around (trust me, it's harder than it sounds).

It lands on September 8.

Yep, that's Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles. It includes both the original game, and a remake version!

It will launch on September 30, with pre-orders starting today.

A new Final Fantasy announcement now. Looks like a Final Fantasy Tactics remake! I know some fans will be very, very excited about this.

Just revealed October 3, 2025 release date for Digimon Story: Time Stranger.

Yep, Digimon Story: Time Stranger. This game has already been announced, but a new trailer is always appreciated.

Something Bandai Namco up now. Looks like Digimon to me.

I called it! A new Bloodstained game called Bloodstained The Scarlet Engagement, coming 2026.

This next game looks almost like Castlevania. Maybe something from the Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night devs? Let's see...

Yep, that's Silent Hill f. It's out September 25 this year! Amazing.

The protagonist is channelling her inner James Sunderland and beating up horrifying enemies with a pipe! That's the Silent Hill I know and love.

On to the next reveal. I'm pretty confident that this is a new Silent Hill f trailer. This is one game that I'm personally really looking forward to, especially given the awesome steelbook available with pre-orders here in the UK.

Hopefully we get a release date soon!

Well this next game looks a bit crazy! I'm seeing plenty of third-person combat, with a mix of futuristic funs and melee attacks.

The name? Romeo is a Dead Man, a new game from Grasshopper Manufacture coming in 2026.

Yep, that's Pragmata! And a 2026 release window - nice.

Oh! This looks an awful like Pragmata! Capcom logo on screen confirms it, I think.

About time we saw something else about this game! The graphics are very pretty, with some interesting looking combat.

On to the next game.

Big text on screen, "what comes after dreaming?". How intriguing!

We have a name! Lumines Arise, coming to PS5 and, surprisingly, PSVR 2 - I guess Sony hasn't given up on VR quite yet...

Okay, this looks an awful lot like some kind of Lumines revival! I'm always in the mood for a good puzzle game, so sign me up!

Our first game! It looks... weird. I'm seeing lots of psychedelic visuals and hearing some super groovy background music. Big PS Vita vibes from this one.

The stream is beginning! Hold on to something...

The State of Play stream is now live! With a countdown ticking down on screen as we speak.

There are just a few minutes to go until it begins proper, so make sure to tune by heading to your platform of choice right now.

To make things extra easy, I've also included an embedded version of the stream below - you're welcome!

State of Play | June 4, 2025 [English] - YouTube

Watch On

More than 111,000 people have now tuned into the official PlayStation stream, and that number is only increasing by the second!

If you need a reminder, it's starting in just ten minutes.

Remember that biltong I mentioned earlier? Turns out it was a big mistake.

I had a little nibble and now there's some stuck in my teeth. Hopefully I manage to get that out before the stream begins, because it feels pretty grim.

It's getting closer...

Time flies really when you're waiting for a stream about video games to go live!

There is now just 15 minutes to go until the State of Play begins, so start getting yourself ready for a non-stop barrage of gaming goodness.

Don't think you'll be able to follow the stream live? Don't worry, as I'll be covering everything in text form right here because I'm nice like that*.

_{*It's also my job.}

The official PlayStation account has posted a reminder too!

The official PlayStation X / Twitter account has posted to remind everyone that the State of Play presentation is set to begin in 30 minutes (well, now about 25 minutes)!

The clock is ticking, gamers. Just thirty minutes to go!

With the recent release of Day's Gone Remastered, not to mention the Until Dawn remake, the big question on my mind going into the State of Play is which PlayStation game will receive the remake or remaster treatment next.

I'm on my hands and knees begging for Knack Remastered, but I don't think it's going to happen. Maybe we'll see some kind of God of War remaster, or maybe even a remaster collection? That would be pretty slick.

Over 35,000 people are waiting to go

State of Play | June 4, 2025 [English] - YouTube

Watch On

Although the broadcast hasn't started yet (don't panic!) the State of Play live stream is up on YouTube. It's just in a waiting room stage right now which isn't too exciting, but it does tell us the number of overall active viewers right now.

Currently more than 35,000 people are waiting for the stream to begin - and that's just on YouTube. I'm sure that number would be much higher if you tallied up all the other platforms that the State of Play will be airing.

There's less than an hour to go folks!

There is now just over fifty minutes to go until the State of Play. If you want to watch it live, this is your chance to get some last-minute chores out of the way.

I would also recommend getting a snack and a drink so that they are on hand for later. The presentation is only forty minutes long, but you still don't want to risk missing a trailer if you need to stand up and get something from the kitchen.

Me? I've got a lovely little bottle of prosecco (please don't tell my boss) and a small packet of biltong ready to go. Yum!

Pausing for a break...

OK, I have to go and break for some dinner and to pack for a certain mid-year game festival I'm going to so we'll be putting our live coverage down for a short while.

My colleague Dash will be picking this up again in a bit to guide you through the rest of the build-up and the show itself!

Hellblade 2 to say hello?

Surely this is a contender?

When it was announced that it was coming to PS5 last month, it came with the information that Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 would be coming out 'this summer' and we would hear more soon or in the future.

Well, a PS5 game-focused State of Play in June seems to fit the bill perfectly for timing, as well as showing off what the sequel will be able to do and look like on PS5 and PS5 Pro.

I'm hyped for this one too, as it was one of my top games of last year and I've been itching for a reason to go back and replay it. The game looks and sounds fantastic, is hard-hitting, deeply interesting and impactful, and there's a certain seductiveness to the bleakness of the Hellblade series that I'm a big fan of.

Four hour warning!

We're now only four hours from the start of tonight's State of Play presentation!

What are you hoping for? Any wild expectations or ambitions?

I've got one more prediction which feels likely, but then I'll haver to head off for dinner, and we'll pick this back up a bit closer to the start of the show.

Personal hope - where are my PS5 Pro console covers?

We know that the PS5 Pro shares some similarities with the PS5 Slim's console covers and they are just as easy to remove - but where the heck are the versions for the premium PlayStation 5?

I've been waiting for news on these since launch and today's State of Play seems as good a place as any to reveal them. Plus it'd be a welcome bit of hardware representation among the games.

Snake to make an appearance?

I reckon a really good bet is another look at the upcoming Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater remaster of the classic PS2 game, Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater.

We know this will come out in August, and this is a perfect time to rumble the hype train on for the game and give Naked Snake another few minutes in the sun.

And as a PlayStation fan of a...certain age... let's say, this is a game I'm really, really looking forward to coming out and eager to play. The Metal Gear Solid series is synonymous with PlayStation after all, so this is going to be a big one for Sony.

Looks like Fortnite will make an appearance though...

However, something that looks quite likely to appear in the State of Play is Fortnite.

Posting the above on X / Twitter, the official Fortnite account seems to be strongly hinting that the game will have something to do with PlayStation - using the console's famous symbols - and soon, too.

Is that a pair of eyes from the Fortnite banana skin/character too....?

What could it mean, though? It could simply be a look at the upcoming new season, but could it be something more... Who knows!

Will we see more of The Witcher 4?

As much as I want this to be A Thing, I'm not sure seeing more of the next Witcher game from CD Projekt Red is that likely.

After all, it was only yesterday that we saw the tech demo at the State of Unreal presentation. It was breath-taking and only bodes well for the game, but i think the safe money is on CDPR keeping more of The Witcher 4 in its pocket for the time being.

That being said, stranger things have happened, and I'd love to see more in today's State of Play.

I'm back!

I have returned to continue our live build-up and chat in the run-up to tonight's State of Play!

I'll continue Dash's trend and look to what I think might come up later today, or what I hope will make an appearance too.

And with that, Rob has just let me know that he is out of his meetings and ready to take back over.

I'll see you all again later tonight when the show begins!

Will Pragmata finally get a new trailer?

I've heard a lot of rumblings about a potential new trailer for Pragmata, that eye-catching Capcom game that showed up in the PS5 reveal event years ago now.

Described as an "all-new action adventure title that depicts a near-future dystopian world on the moon through a deeply profound story and setting," the game was set to be a bit of a showcase for the power of modern consoles.

That said, we haven't heard anything about the game since its reveal - which is generally not a great sign. Will we see a new trailer tonight? It's possible, and honestly about time we see more.

The memes are coming in

It wouldn't be a State of Play without a barrage of jokey social media posts.

Here are some of the most amusing ones that I've spotted on the timeline...

Bloodborne remastered?

A potential Bloodborne remaster, remake, or even just simple PlayStation 5 patch will be high up on the wishlists of many going into this State of Play.

How likely do I think an announcement is? Unfortunately not very, as we haven't heard any rumblings or rumors recently to suggest that it's on the way.

Still, there's a chance that it's just been successfully kept under wrap. You never know what might be in store...

What are you expecting tonight?

From a new Resident Evil game to more Grand Theft Auto 6 footage, speculation is ramping up as we get nearer to the start time. What do you expect to see tonight? Let us know in a post on X / Twitter tagging us @techradar for a chance to be featured in this coverage!

Hello gamers!

Dash here, to guide you through the build up to the State of Play show.

If you need a quick reminder, the show is set to begin at 2pm PT / 5pm ET / 11pm CEST! That means that it's just under seven hours away...

No sooner have I started, I actually have to head into some meetings now as I try and do normal day-to-day work around all the excitement of the summer of games kicking off!

It's OK, though, as my colleague Dash is stepping in to continue our live coverage in the meantime, and I'll be back before you know it.

The key details

Right, let's get into the most pertinent details straight away.

Today's State of Play will start at 2pm PT / 5pm ET / 11pm CEST, and you can watch it on PlayStation's YouTube and Twitch channels.

Simple, but it pays to have these ducks in a row ahead of time!

Welcome!

Hello and welcome to our live build-up and coverage of today's State of Play presentation!

What will we see? Big blockbusters and updates or a focus on smaller games? We're here to guide you through the build-up to Sony getting this summer's presentation off to a flyer, and will be adding some good ol' chat, the latest news, and predictions as we go as well.
