Sony just aired a State of Play event focusing entirely on 007: First Light. Still, there's sure to be more of them by the end of the year, and with many unknowns surrounding upcoming exclusives like Wolverine and Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, I'm hoping for some news sooner rather than later.

Since the series of shows began in 2019, Sony has used the State of Play presentations to reveal big-hitting games and details such as the initial reveal of Saros, debut gameplay footage for Death Stranding 2, and more. So, it's always worth tuning in to the State of Play live streams if you want to be alerted to any big announcements for new PS5 games.

Following the release of the PS5 Pro console, all eyes have turned back to the next State of Play - a new console will need new games to play on it, after all, even if it is a mid-gen refresh machine. Here's what we know.

The next State of Play has yet to be announced. We just got one on September 3, 2025, so it could be a while before we hear more on what's next. Once we do, I'll update this section.

The last Sony State of Play event aired September 3, 2025. This was focused on 007: First Light, showing off extended gameplay for the first time. Here's what was revealed:

  • Release date: March 27, 2025
  • Pre-orders are now available for three editions, including the Standard, Specialist, and Legacy Editions
  • Pre-ordering the game ahead of the March 27, 2026, launch date will guarantee you a free Deluxe Edition upgrade
  • 30-minute gameplay session

What can we expect from the next Sony State of Play?

We don't know what'll be shown at the next State of Play. I'm hoping to see more on Marvel's Wolverine, which we still haven't had an update on since it was revealed. Then there's Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, the next game from Naughty Dog, which we know very little about presently.

Of all the unknowns, Saros is the most compelling to me. It's a spiritual successor to Returnal, which I consider to be one of the very best PS5 exclusives. There's a lot of games we need details on, so the next State of Play hopefully shows off some new details for upcoming exclusives.
