This has nothing to do with E3 or "the time around E3" etc. So no, do not expect big new announcements. There is a reason this SoP is only 10 minutes.
Lol, soo naive... youre better off if the game releases this year then. You'll have more time to game when the baby is a newborn than the years that follow. Anyways, congrats!
It honestly make lots of sense, seeing as it's a console exclusive (timed or not) and Sony would like some of that marketing pie.
It also would serve as a nice teaser for S-E's own conference that I'm sure many are going to actually be tuning in for if things like this are teased.
Hopefully!

Sony specifically called out MediEvil, so I'm expecting a hefty chunk of time spent on it. Probably 4 minutes, yeah.
All the big E3 games are starting to get announced this week, beginning with Wildlands 2. Sony are getting out ahead of this before the coverage is heavy on multiple games.
Given that Sony won't be attending E3 and likely would have had a major announcement ready if they were, it's entirely possible this game could be on the level of Final Fantasy VII Remake, Agent, Deep Down, Wild, etc. Any of these would be worthy of an E3 stage if they're releasing this Christmas.
Thanks! True ha ha. FF7 R has been my most game release since it was announced. I don't think it will hold a candle to my first being born and I'll be happy to play it whenever I get to it.
this show seems way too short for Death Stranding trailer imo..
In 2018 when they announced they would not be at E3 2019, they said "we will not activate during E3", that's PR speak for they will not have any type of marketing push during E3. The next State of Play isn't until later in the year, what they're showing at this one is all we're getting until after E3.
no, mainly because the trailer seems longer and based off his tweets it seems like he is still editing it, i think we will see it at a later date.
Plans may have changed since November. Also, I don't see any evidence to support the fact that we aren't getting another State of Play until after E3? "Later in the year" could mean a month or more...
Would be an awesome combo. Having the memory of playing FINAL FANTASY VII Remake alongside your sleeping newborn giving them the cuddles. Nostalgia levels will be way to high lol. I mean, that's if your like everyone else who's been waiting for the games since the 90's.
Would be awesome if it releases this year.
"Agent, Deep Down" .... lol. Both IPs are dead.
Like I said, expect a nice short State of Play. And don't expect megatons, just so you can later post how disappointed you are.
As the poster above you said, they explicitly stated there wouldn't be a show on or around E3. It's not impossible that plans may have changed, but you probably shouldn't assume they have or hope for too much.
Corporations don't just change their plans like that. Do you think they would have just announced the PS5 via a Wired interview if they were having any type of presence at E3? It's around a month from now anyway, and the month leading up to E3 is media madness. Later in the year means later in the year. Soon means soon.
Same reason it was announced at Sony's E3 conference and not Square-Enix conference literally the next day, exposure. More people watch PlayStation livestreams than Square-Enix, so you put the good shit on there.
You're 100% right. I think it would be awesome now that you mention it. Damnit Square! Release the game this year!
I think you're correct that a teaser during State of Play followed by gameplay at Square-Enix E3 is a logical rollout. Would probably say as much at the end of the trailer just like the original ended with "gameplay at PSX".
Guess we expect a State of Play next month or so then too :/ They could try for roughly 1.5 months between releases.
Would be a weird / pointlessly obtuse way to do it. It's probably just a short trailer.
I am afraid that it will be only VR VR then Medievil , i am happy about Medievil and hyped for it but i want more than that
His tweets indicates the trailer is still in editing.
They didnt mention VR at all in their blog post (probably due to reactions to the first episode), and seems like zhuge is teasing this will be good show, i think the number of games will be low, but of higher scale/public interest than the previous one.
Btw, he's now the General Manager of the Media & Arts Business Division since April after the internal restructuring of SE JP (their 11 Business Divisions got streamlined into 4). But yeah, he was (is?) the Executive Producer on FFVIIR. Maybe he stepped down from that role though like he did with the KH series too since April.
It's good that they stick with the format. They can fine tune it into something great eventually. It's like a Mini Direct.
No. Sony WWS are featuring 2 of their games for this State of Play: MediEvil and a new game (new IP?) plus updates on already announced games (most likely Dreams and Concrete Genie). As for the 3rd party title, it has teased to be Square Enix related.
Don't think they gonna talk about VR. Otherwise, they would have mentioned it.
You know something about it? ;)
Is one of your games part of it? :P
We are weeks away from Blood and Truth, we might get a new trailer
Doubt it. They will likely release a new launch trailer for Blood & Truth a week or 2 before its release. Sooo... I am expecting it for this SoP. Guess it will not be until next week. Also, they said they would give updates for other already announced Sony games, which doesn't apply to Blood & Truth since it already got its update last month.
Uhh with FFVII being heavily teased in this thread it's pretty hard to do that.

my predictions :
- Sony Manchester's VR game reveal
- New VR games from Firesprite and Tarsier studios
- Bluepoint's upcoming game VR only
- MediEvil VR mode reveal
;)
my guess:
4 minutes on medievil
2x1.5 minutes on two first party games, one new, one already announced or released
2 minutes on a third party game
1 minute intro/outro/transitions
4 minutes on medievil

The best thing about Days Gone finally being released is that I won't have to see it during a conference/video stream ever again. Rejoice!
unless of course DLC is announced
