Predictions For PS5 Reveal Event
- Thread starter Sillegamer
- Start date
I think a mention about something like this, along with an official announcement of Demon's Souls at launch and Silent Hills somewhere down the line is enough for me to press the 'pre-order' button.
Anything else would just be a nice bonus, especially $399.
PS5 Reveal State of Play
May 2020
May 2020
- Jim Ryan introduces the PS5, box is a minimalistic version of the dev kit (V vents) + DualSense pattern
- Talks about vision and goals: legacy platform and seamless transition, streaming and new tech, bringing the best tech and tools to developers to create the best experiences;
- Bluepoint remake reveal (it has to be either DeS, Metal Gear or Legend of Dragoon at this point), PS5 only, live demo, launch title;
- Ratchet & Clank New Game reveal, launch title;
- Dualshock 5 deep-dive;
- Basic OS overview: dashboard, resume feature, that feature for which you join your friend in a certain point automatically (or something along that line, i don't remember the details), revamped PS Store with AI help in navigation
- The Last of Us Part 2 launches in July, super-extra PS5 patch coming on launch day;
- Ghost of Tsushima DLC announced, PS5 version (with Raytracing, ecc.) available at launch;
- Sony acquires Housemarque, new SP AAA announcement, live demo, launch in January/April;
- More details on backwards compatibility: all PS4 titles working except very small number; all playable in the "legacy mode" (which is PS4/PS4Pro performance), most of the Top 100 PS4 titles automatically get next-gen benefits ("boost mode"), while some will require some work;
- Backward compatibility for previous gens also confirmed "in one form or the other", more details later;
- 3rd-party segment:
- Current gen games getting dedicated "next-gen patches": Jedi Fallen Order, Avengers, Final Fantasy XV, KH3, Cyberpunk 2077
- Next-gen only games short trailers: Godfall (reconfirms launch day title), Starfield, Assassin's Creed Ragnarok (reveal), Harry Potter RPG (reveal), Diablo IV, FFXVI (reveal), Onimusha (reveal)
- Gran Turismo 7 announced, trailer, launch window game, planned support for the entire generation;
- One last thing: Horizon 2 announced, live demo, new protag played by a celebrity, launch window;
The OP is basically the perfect scenario. It won't be as good as that lol.
I'm expecting a DS Remake for the core and a R&C sequel for the larger market at launch with a couple of teases for future big hitting games (Horizon 2 and Spider-Man 2). I think they'll stick with GT Sport and keep updating it for the first couple of years of PS5. Third parties to fill a significant part of the presentation.
Even that would be a good showing. Hopefully those who can pay the day they pre order get priority for a console this year as I already have the cash put away for it.

I expect a substantial amount of games shown, but not as much as OP. I think Sony wants a few announcements for later shows and they said they'd not announce far out games anymore. On the other hand I could see them going ham on announcing games over the next year. Coulf be as a response to MS going with games that are far off and trailers that outshine games that are actually coming out soon and/or to simply flex their game dev muscles and create massive hype early in the generation to keep people in the PS ecosystem.
Using your template...
- Hardware
- System reveal
- Release: November 2020
- Price: $499
- First-Party
- Ratchet & Clank (launch)
- The Last of Us multiplayer game
- Horizon 2
- Spider-Man 2
- Silent HIll
- Demon Souls remake
- Gran Turismo 7
- Third-Party
- Street Fighter VI
- First Half of 2021
- Next-Gen Only
- Resident Evil 8
- January 2021
- Cross-Gen
- Call of Duty
- Final Fantasy XVI
- Godfall
- Various indie games
- Street Fighter VI
- Next-gen upgrades for current-gen games (FFVII Remake, Avengers, Cyberpunk 2077, TLoU Part II, GoT, etc.)
I agree with most of this, but I don't think we'll get the price/release date just yet. They will wait for another event later in the year.
I would add :
- Demo of PS5 new feature like the create button, switching between games, better integration of PS Now
- FF16 world premiere
Nope, because higher price = lower unit sales = less mtx and DLC sales. What you might see more is games having a more expensive special edition which gives you a few days access before standard edition buyers.
Hold up, let me make us of this opportunity to link to a response from you on someone's launch game predictions back in December https://www.resetera.com/threads/pl...-are-jim-ryan-party-gifs.158292/post-27513727
How's that looking?
My guess:
* $499 / 499 GBP
* hw teardown / reveal
* dual shock demo
* SSD demos (multiple)
* secret sauce reveal - pretty sure that there are things that haven't been mentioned/revealed yet
I'm guessing that there will be a separate games reveal (beyond tech demos)

I just checked and I ordered both PS4 and XB1 on the first day they were up for pre-order on Amazon - both were around the 10th of June. So yeah, not yet.
Playstation 5 will launch March 2021 at 449.99$
Ratchet & Clank 6 will be announced for launch.
Horizon 2 will be announced for launch

- Horizon 2 teaser into gameplay. No date leading to people assume it's a launch title. Hermen Hulst will later clarify it's early 2021.
- Gran Turismo graphical showcase. No name or date, leaving people to wonder whether it's a better looking Sport or 7.
- Street Fighter VI. No exclusivity.
- Ratchet & Clank. Launch title. It's a sequel to 2016 R&C, but also just called Ratchet & Clank.
- Godfall devs hype Godfall.
- Quantic Dream next IP. Think Pixar's Inside Out. You play as three of David Cage's emotions.
- Spider-Man 2! No, wait, it's how Spider-Man PS4 will run on PS5.
- Housemarque's latest bomba. Console exclusive.
- Bluepoint's Demons' Souls Remake. Launch title. Animated logo shows the apostrophe being slashed into other position.
- Console reveal. $449.
- That's all for now. See you soon for another State of Play.

We need a propper sequel that expands on everything. Larger gameworld, more gameplay options, longer campaigns with proper endgame pacing. Most likely we will not even get that and RAD will move on to a new IP.
I predict that all of these will happen...
All of them apart from the $399 one.
I'd change the FFXVI one. It's pretty common knowledge that Naoki Yoshida from ffxiv has had an unannounced project happening which may be ffxvi.

I expect to leave disappointed, but hope to be wrong. I don't think Sony's gonna have a single thing to get me excited.
Nomura could still be involved as a character or art designer :P
But honestly I hope its Akihiko Yoshida.
My predictions are that the console will be smaller than expected and probably an odd design. There will be a new feature that we still don't know about. And it will cost $450. They'll talk about enhancements to existing PS4 games, show a demo for it, and reiterate their commitment to BC. Some changes to their services with PS Plus and Now, possibly a combined subscription package.
As far as games shown, exclusives will be: Bluepoint's game, Godfall, R&C, Housemarque/RAD game, and teases for future: Silent Hill, Gran Turismo, Horizon 2 and/or Uncharted 5. Third party multi-platform: New Capcom game (probably RE8), something from Square (probably some tech demo thing for FF16), Call of Duty something, EA with new Star Wars project and a sport game, something from Ubisoft (Watchdogs or AC), and either Batman or Rocksteady's game.

I think the launch titles will be saturated with free to play live service games.
Developers with an active audience on current gen consoles will be desperate to push their games over so as to avoid losing that audience to upcoming titles like Godfall and Outriders.
So, among the obvious titles I think we'll also see Fortnite, Apex Legends, Warframe, Paladins and so forth.

Just saw your post. It's very true. 😂
I'm somewhere in between though. Since I'm just excited for some next-gen titles.
PlanetSmasher sometimes a have the feeling that not even God can plan a gaming show that can excite you.

Ha. Who knows? Making some actual RPGs would be a nice change in the right direction at least! :P
Mine ;)

I'm surprised so many think we'll see GT. I highly doubt that. I think we'll see the next GT get unveiled in 2022. PD isn't known for making early dates. I'm not an insider, just a hunch.
And they aren't going to unveil more than 3, maybe 4 first party games. They will have a plethora of third party games though if I had to guess.

Now we're talking.
I think it will be whatever is launching in the first six months. Hardware (console and controller) and OS presentations. Third party games. And to close they'll tease whatever the first major first party title will end up being on the console -- so Spiderman or Horizon.
I'm not good at game guessing so will make the most obvious and conservative list:
Teased:
Spider-man 2
Horizon 2
GT7/Sport 2
