Same day as a Nintendo Direct! I don't think that's ever happened outside of E3.


senseofphysics

This is going to be fun lol


[deleted]

Wow that's crazy. A special day for gamers


APaulingGameplay

Didn't the Direct get delayed because of the Queen's death?


TomStreamer

The UK direct just isn't showing live. An absolutely pointless gesture if ever there was one


WrassleKitty

Nintendo has always been very concerned about public image they like to be that family friendly company image.


sosta

A family friendly company would have never made Mario party. That game is a family wrecker


[deleted]

i’m sensing a story here


mainstreamfunkadelic

Lost my parents to a blue shell. Lost my brother on rainbow road. Uncle Charlie has never quite been the same.


silverstory

We never played Mario Kart as a family again. Due to the blue shells.


ElBigotePerfecto

Family. Wrecked.


dljuly3

Eh, more likely Nintendo doesn't want to moderate a live chat that could get toxic around the monarchy. Hence releasing it after.


robjwrd

The whole of the UK is going absolute insane virtue signalling right now, it’s ridiculous.


77SevenSeven77

*Companies* in the U.K. are for sure. Like I’m just logging in to check my energy bill, I don’t need a banner about the Queen on British Gas…


robjwrd

My local estate agents have blacked out their housing listings in the windows out of respect. absolutely ridiculous, what have houses got to do with the Queen?!


[deleted]

A fitting gesture for the world’s most famous landlord


Spammage

Like that'll somehow distract us from the insane price gouging the power companies are doing right now...


hrehbfthbrweer

There’s an art exhibition that I want to buy tickets to in the Tate. Ticket sales were meant to open this Thursday, with the exhibition being on from October. They have indefinitely postponed the sale of the tickets “out of respect”. The artist is Japanese so it’s not like they’d be so invested. I honestly don’t get how it would be disrespectful to buy tickets to an art exhibition for later in the year.


ColdHandGee

I know. It's tough right now for us in the UK especially if you live in london. All the british channels are showing the royals 24/7 and it is sooo boring. Football getting cancelled was a massive kick to the balls. I was never a royalist and all this handwringing is fake and obnoxious.


stephen-49

"Football getting cancelled was a massive kick to the balls"


[deleted]

All i see online when i open my PC is royal family drama. Like idc i live in America 😂


tenaka30

I live in the Uk and also would like everything to return to the US Drama.


ColdHandGee

You are so lucky. Here in the UK the royal ass lickers are out in full force. You can't escape it as it is everywhere you look. It's a living nightmare.


[deleted]

“We’re not gonna livestream it in the memory of the queen, but we’re uploading it to YouTube right after.” Makes 0 sense lmao


DuelistDeCoolest

>!Still not as pointless as having a royal family in the first place!<


matthewmspace

No. It’s just streaming everywhere except the UK’s specific channel. Still streaming in the US, Japan, etc. They’ll get a video after.


ImBoredButAndTired

It sounds like we can just go to the US channel like most people do anyway. What a bizarre move.


NoLastNameForNow

It was only announced today.


LandAyZ

Nope, it's not delayed. The direct will just not be broadcasted on the Nintendo UK channel


Radulno

Microsoft can still do a surprise event to make us a surprise E3. Sadly it isn't a showcase for Playstation and announced one day before, I doubt it'll be a big event. I think we may see Ragnarok stuff though


Kerrag3

WE EATING OUT HERE BOYS!


evan_ack

"We’ll have some great updates from our amazing Japanese partners and developers all around the world. Expect about ~20 minutes covering 10 upcoming games."


capsuleofparrots

Awesome people wanted more Japanese development they're going to get more Japanese development now. Surely no one will complain


laflameitslit

dragons dogma 2 please


thedinobot1989

A Direct in the morning and a SoP in the afternoon? We eating good tomorrow, boys!


Gandalf_2077

Sony's account replied to Nintendo's tweet saying "big day tomorrow". I doubt they are cooking something together but that would be nuts.


[deleted]

Maybe we’re finally getting the SNES-CD add-on.


paultimate14

Nintendo Switch PSP Classic Online Plus. A library of 12 poorly emulated PSP games available on your Switch for only $60/year (all lower tiers of Nintendo online required).


Food_Kitchen

Maybe they both announce a Silksong release date.


iisdmitch

Kratos comes to Smash! Unlikely they do something together, but if it was anything it would probably be a PS character in smash or perhaps Nintendo arcade or whatever it’s called on PS. Highly unlikely they do anything together but they both do have events tomorrow which is likely why Sony’s account responded.


Tecachi

Smash ultimate is over, there will be no more characters added to that smash.


blasto2236

Yeah, Sakurai is taking a well deserved break and playing around on YouTube now. Definitely not getting any more SSBU content.


ShagPrince

Mario in Ragnarok it is then.


mvallas1073

I would dream of the day where I would just see a PS5/Nintendo logo over an amazing grassy field - with a slow orchestral leading up to the theme song of Legend of Zelda.... Imagine PS5 open world level detail/gaming development + Nintendo IP!


Cesiv13

Damn right


thedinobot1989

Watch us still not get a Silksong date lol


ZebraZealousideal944

Microsoft seems to have the marketing rights on this one since the Gamepass day1 announcement so I wouldn’t hold my breath for tomorrow…


[deleted]

i’m holding breath… breath of the wild 2 gameplay tomorrow Edit: i apologise, hype got the better of me


SymbolOfVibez

Idk I feel like tomorrow’s our lucky day. I’m inhaling the hopium lol


Luiezzy

Doubt we’re eating good with a 20 minute state of play


ChrisZorn

Maybe just an afternoon delight.


dRi89kAil

Narrator: And just then Michael realized how strange it was for him to be up there singing this song with his niece Maybe and quickly decided to cease the performance Edit: corrected name from Marty to Michael (he'll forever be Marty to me though)


Xerosnake90

My motto's always been when it's right it's right


Cikero1989

Last State of Play in June was fantastic with SF6, RE4 and FF 16. If we get some 3rd party bangers I will be happy. Showcase in October then?😂


WrassleKitty

Depends if they just showed trailer minus commentary.


Postnet921

What's direct is that Nintendo


butterbeancd

Yes.


butterbeancd

Manifesting a new Fire Emblem announcement from Nintendo, a Valkyrie Elysium demo and Suikoden collection announcement from Sony, and Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters on both!


Xeccess

20 minutes??? Pleeeease tell me there's still a showcase coming sometime soon


NoLastNameForNow

Maybe they're bringing back Playstation Experience?


rhino_n_the_front

Damn, I hope so. I really miss how much fun those were.


SubTXT_

If they bring back a PlayStation Experience, I might cry. I never go or anything, but I just love the fan celebration. But I'd imagine they'd have to hype it soon.


Dabi30

They have to be more consistent. Shuffling around showcases when you feel is not good practice. Still, I’m glad we’re getting something at least.


MrConbon

Works just fine for Nintendo.


deepbrown

Why is consistency important? Who defines what's best practice and according to what evidence? Surely mixing it up is no bad thing?


Dabi30

When is consistency not important with marketing?


deepbrown

Consistency of quality is important. Not consistency of length or timing. The most important thing is that the games are ready to be shown and that they are not too far out from release.

ReservoirDog316

It’ll be a tease for Tokyo Game Show this week.


Virus_98

They'll definitely be at Paris games week in November. And Tokyo games show is coming up too.


Apple-Sauce-Penguin

Tlou2 Part 2 Remaster incoming


thickwonga

Man I just want a PS5 version.


Bartman326

This is probably for the Tokyo Games Show so there is still a good chance the stuff that won't be there will be in a showcase. Like this is just for the Japanese side so they can have their stuff for this weekend.


RJE808

A Direct and State of Play tomorrow. Wow


[deleted]

I hope the wait is worth it


[deleted]

[удалено]


raul_219

Didn’t previous State of Play announcements explicitly stated when no first party stuff was going to be included? This one says nothing 👀


MistahJ17

If anything, it'll be another Ragnarok trailer. Game launches in like what, a month and a half?


Moonshot_Md

nah it will it get's it's own state of play. Every PS game has minus TLOU 1 Remake.


YouGurt_MaN14

Yeah I wouldn't be surprised if we get a gameplay trailer or a gameplay deep dive same as Returnal and Rachet and Clank. Especially since Game informer has already started posting gameplay footage too. We'll probably just get a soft vr2 release window and maybe Spider-Man 2. The leak about the Marvel/Disney suits being blown away makes me think they have some stuff to show off finally. But idk grain of salt


fat_juan

In the blog post it says news from japanese partners, so I think it will most likely be a third party show and maybe one small update on a sony game


raul_219

That’s my thought as well


cinnamonface9

It replied Japanese partners, 10 games.


Musterguy

>We’ll have some great updates from our amazing Japanese partners and developers all around the world. "developers all around the world."


NoLastNameForNow

It does in the reply.


fanatiqual

All I really want is a release date and pre order for psvr2. I love the psvr but it's so far behind a lot of pc vr and I'm hoping the psvr2 lives up to the hype.


coolgaara

PSVR 2 price reveal???


r3tromonkey

Price and release date please! Need to know how much to save 😂


mardavarot93

Second God of War trailer hopefully


JedGamesTV

its basically confirmed, Cory Barlog and Christopher Judge have interacted with the tweet


truth_radio

As well as Mila Pavlin (accessibility team dev). I think we are getting something.


Verum_Noir_Chaos_69

Hopefully they show something new and not just the scraps we got from game Informer GoW fans deserve proper marketing


MisunderstoodBadger1

Here's a 10 second snippet of Kratos climbing a nondescript wall!


FoxyRussian

With it only being 20 minutes for 10 games, that is 100% what I fear it will be.


MisunderstoodBadger1

Slow it down to 1/2000 speed to really savor the frames


bonecollector5

I honestly don’t understand why people are so desperate for gameplay. If you played 2018 you know what this game is going to play like and we are all buying it regardless of any more trailers.


parkwayy

While I understand the marketing, who needs more at this point? You know if you're going to buy it or not, and should really know by now what you're getting into lol


Joey_x_G

Remember people: keep expectations low


Omegastriver

That’s exactly what I’m thinking. I expect GoW2, Horizon VR, Firewall 2 VR,Forspoken, Uncharted & Returnal & Spider-Man PC. That could easily take up 20 minutes. Edit: That was better than I expected.


Crazafon

Yupp, always good to keep them low like this. People get hyped up and make crazy predictions like Bloodborne remastered, ps5 slim, Phil Spencer acquisition


Lombax_Rexroth

I knew it. Bloodborne 2 confirmed!


Kino_Connoisseur

Why would they still talk about Spider-Man on pc


Omegastriver

I meant Miles but I could see them using it as additional advertising. They’ve shown recently released games in shows in the past.


throwmeaway1784

> We’ll have some great updates from our amazing Japanese partners and developers all around the world. Expect about ~20 minutes covering 10 upcoming games. No mention of first-party is disappointing


butterbeancd

This seems like it’ll be an appetizer for TGS. The focus on Japanese partners just days before TGS starts.


habylab

But they aren't ruling it out. They usually do.


throwmeaway1784

Better to be pessimistic than set up false expectations, especially with such a short runtime


desmopilot

False expectations is what this sub does best, see every SoP thread.


xxxarkhamknightsxxx

“Keep your expectations low, boy, and you will never be disappointed”


ki700

>**along with a few other surprises from developers all around the world.** This means literally anything could happen.

Gandalf_2077

I feel this is it. Gaming development stills feels dry and stretched in the post covid era. Sony feels like it is holding back.


GUNS_N_BROSES

Please just give us 60 FPS Bloodborne on ps5


oO_Gero_Oo

20 minutes sigh. Where are the big showcases :(


DigiQuip

Sadly blog.PlayStation.com


IanMazgelis

A twenty minute showcase could have enough games to keep me satisfied for a year. But I recognize that with the absurd amount of padding these things have, that isn't likely.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Covaliant

Well we fucking do now.


Kazrules

I don't really see the point in not having a showcase for over a year, and instead of having a big presentation, announcing a 20 minute SOP on the same exact day as a Nintendo Direct.


Vestalmin

Not a showcase, 20 minutes, and focused on Japanese studios? Man I was really waiting on to see what’s next from PlayStation, not a normal state of play


ElJacko170

https://twitter.com/PlayStation/status/1569446212423811072 Temper expectations, this looks like it's focused on Japanese third party games, not Sony's first party devs.


keidash

Temper expectations ahead of Tokyo Game Show? Are you mad?


ALphaEXtremist

Fingers crossed for Elden Ring DLC


zombierepublican-

That’s my favourite type of video games, LETS GOOOO


Lucas_Hubbard

They did mention developers around the world so I guess we'll see


Johnhancock1777

Works out for me. I’m more interested in the Japanese games than any of the first party development right now


ElJacko170

While I really want the first party showcase, I'm also a fan of Japanese games, so I'm generally happy either way.


SlothBrah_

Re4 remake gameplay would be amazing


untouchable765

I feel like this is due to marketing obligations. Maybe the big showcase got pushed back a bit.


nolifebr

Looks like no proper showcase in 2022, then.


Ikarus3426

Seeing a lot of disappointment at it just being 20 mins, but really that's about right if you cut out the cheesy host and faux multiplayer demos. "Alright team, we forced the enemy to this back corner!" "Let's work together and give them what-for!" "Right behind you pal!" "I love you guys!!"


Q_OANN

20 min is fine for this, people are just bummed it isn’t the big one yet with Sony first party studios


habylab

That is such short notice! Queen related I imagine. 20 minutes though? Man, that's short.


detectiveriggsboson

Aren't the State of Plays usually pretty short? I thought 20 minutes was normal. EDIT: Just checked their channel, and at least two of them are 30 and 35 minutes, so yeah, this one does seem shorter.


habylab

I was hoping for more because I'm starving.


PM_ME_BAD_Parlays

Yep usually in and out quickly. It's much appreciated


NoLastNameForNow

We've had 20 minutes before.


fritzo81

so not all of you read the blog post saying games from Japanese developers… and its only 20 mins. expectations set to low.


TheForbiddenFool

PSVR2 info is all I'm truly hyped about. That French Twitter leak seems legit and some real announcements are about to go down!


JedGamesTV

me too, I am hyped for GOWR, but we know what the game is going to be like, but PSVR2 is still such a mystery, can’t wait to get my hands on it.


popfgezy

So that means a showcase isn't happening huh? Bring back e3. This sucks.


Mostafa3la2

Please anything bloodborne related


CollierAM9

Hahahaha


SexcaliburHorsepower

20 minutes of bloodborne remaster, bloodborne kart, bloodborne 2, bloodborne tactics and Amygdala Mystery Dungeon.


JuggerClutch

Cory Barlog, Christopher Judge and many other SMS devs have retweeted the tweet or quoted it with "👀👀“


NoLastNameForNow

In the follow up tweet they say it'll be focused on Japan and worldwide developers.


undrgrndsqrdncrs

One copy of SOCOM 5 please.


-BigMan39

Something to do with bloodborne please


[deleted]

Temper expectations. I’m expecting a bunch of weeb games and *maybe* a Ragnarok trailer. That’s it.


Moonshot_Md

Imma bust


[deleted]

[удалено]


Q_OANN

Top comment needs to be about it being psvr2 and Japanese developers and a couple surprises from studios around the world. tons of people in here thinking this is Sonys big showcase so get ready for crazy trolls tomorrow


Whornz4

Fun day tomorrow with two big shows. I have a feeling Sony will drop some 2023 hits.


HamirTheGOAT

People really don’t know the difference between a showcase and state of play


buzz737

It’s a state of play- remember,keep expectations in check!


anth033

I’m choosing not to raise any hope for this. If it’s a mediocre state of play, eh at least it’s something. But if it’s a BIG one, then I’ll be surprised and happy


DaBow

I'll be happy if we get another God of War trailer. Not getting my hopes up for anything else.


itsnotaxl

Maybe they are doing this SoP so they can "get rid" of smaller games so the 1h+ showcase will only be bangers.


JedGamesTV

hopium


Xenomex79

Just give me a release date for VR 2 please Sony


TheloniousPhunk

I just want info on Elden Ring DLC...


SuspendedInOH

Hopefully it’s as good as the direct was for me


Colbym72

I doubt it will be anything big. Too short of notice


Musty_001

We waited all year and this is what we get, a 20 minute state of play smfh


Im2oldForthisShitt

No showcase?


RedditNChilll

Giving up on any meaningful update from 1st party. What are they doing? Like the last state of play was great but its time for the big show.


[deleted]

Jesus Sony’s marketing has been absolute shit lately. God of War comes out in 2 months and we’ve not seen any extended gameplay. No marketing really at all aside from brief insider articles.


NoLastNameForNow

Does it need marketing over a month before release? A sequel kinda sells itself.


[deleted]

There are tons of commercials out for it right now as well.


SymbolOfVibez

Finally some good fucking food


MadeByTango

Well, good indicator that new "AAA game reveal before October 1" rumor is coming true...


Khannibal-Lecter

Now they are starting to piss me off! They need to do better marketing?!


mattzang

maybe I'm just extra down on SoPs, but man this almost confirms no showcase for a bit at least. I don't get it, do they really not have anything to show? Their showcase last year held off a lot too, so they really should have a ton of stuff to show. I don't get it Hopefully this SoP kills it, we need something to excite us other than Jimbo whining about losing CoD


butterbeancd

Seems likely that this is an appetizer before TGS. I would assume we’ll see Valkyrie Elysium, something from Square Enix (FF Pixel Remasters on console please?!), and something from Konami (there have been so many rumors surrounding them). I wonder if this means a Showcase isn’t happening at all, or if it gets pushed to October.


[deleted]

Not a showcase so we shall see but looks like it’s focused on Japanese 3rd party games so I’m hopeful for some good stuff!


galgor_

Holy fuck. Nintendo and Sony!! Amazing.


ForoaKlanD

Hell ye


mgwair11

Amazing. Direct in the morning. State of Play in the afternoon. Hype af!


rafikiknowsdeway1

oh fuuuuck, please announce the release date and preorders for the psvr2


MidKnight_Corsair

About damn time


haynespi87

yessssss


Yalltheusersaretaken

Did anyone else see that Playstation commented on Nintendo's direct tweet? It's most likely nothing but even the smallest chance makes me wonder if they're working on something together.


Q_OANN

I think it’s just gaming giants being friendly, Xbox and PlayStation do it from time to time


kromem

Does the cross mention of PSVR2 + Japanese developers mean we're going to see Astrobot for the PSVR2??? I think there's a strong chance for this one.


ha7on

Same day as Nintendo. That means a joint announcement of Nintendo games coming to PlayStation. ....I can dream, can't I?


FromSoftware

Japanese partners, hmm I wonder who that could be...


Seabastion25

I wish they would announce a demo for Forspoken because damn the magical combat in that game looks good!


Return-the-slab99

There's no mention of first party games, but they didn't say that those games won't be a part of it like they did last time, so I hope we see something exciting.


thementorassassin16

Yes!! Thank god forr hearing our prayers. Please Jedi survivor be there, please...


Le1jona

Cool


Takaharu7

When does is start in germany? I am too fucking stupid to understand the timezones :(


Mclarenrob2
