Sony Corp's YouTube upload of CES 2021 PS5 segment removed all the third-party release dates from the end card of the trailer

Yeah. I'd think publishers would prefer to keep that info to themselves even if they shared it with Sony.
Understandable mixup probably due to wfh issues I think.

What I assume has happened is they have internal dates from third parties for those games, they used that, but third parties got upset bc covid and generally games making is hard so please dont reveal dates for us kkthxbye
It was weird as it was. You'd imagine games like Athia, Tokyo Ghostwire and the like would want to announce things on their own terms.
But yeah, expect delays. I don't know if those dates accounted for a Covid world, but even if they did, this shit is hard and so is game development.

I can imagine that, yeah. Puts unnecessary pressure on them.
You can tell even though Sony was fast to adjust to Covid, they haven't been as efficient as some others at communicating between divisions. It's not just Playstation. The same happened just now with their TVs.
But it's understandable.
I still have no idea how they had all those releases in 2020 considering everything really.
Too soon to tell, the trailer was from last week. The first games to come out from that list are Returnal (March 19) and Kena (March).
Haven't they been doing this for a while though?
Shit, maybe not. Maybe those were all windows...
Look if I get my R&C this year then I am good. The rest can release whenever, I got a back catalogue I got to get through anyways lol and game prices at launch of now steep.
Gonna be an especially difficult year for games meeting release dates so I'm surprised they had them there in the first place.
Sony, hire me to be your "end of video details" guy.
ah, the famously anti-Sony ERAEra thinking Sony's 2021 line-up will be barebones:
Era when they see Sony's 2021 games hitting:
I don't think any of them are lol. Some have pages up on PC, like Kena, but no actual preorders
Work from home complicates things. That's pretty much it. Especially reprocessing videos etc.
Look at the insider thread teasing 2021 delays, I have never seen a thread like that to be mostly narrowed to a single publisher (Sony) with people wishfully thinking that its most of their games getting delayed. Hell look at the responses in this thread
In defense of that thread, Microsoft barely has any games releasing this year and the ones that are coming this year were already delayed out of last year into this year. With that context, Sony is the big player with a lot of newly announced 2021 games you can easily say "Sure Jan..." to.
Except there are people doing it in regards to Ratchet and Clank 😂 like...what?
