The chances of any further PlayStation: The Concert dates going ahead next year, as the tour is set to hit the USA, seem increasingly unlikely.
It’s been noticed that a further 11 stops on the USA leg of the world tour have now been cancelled, with Ticketmaster no longer listing them as up for purchase. Only a few cities are left in the Ticketmaster search that allow you to find tickets, with the rest listed as cancelled.
What’s more, VGC has spotted that the official webpage for the PlayStation gig has now been taken down, with the link directing to a 404 error page. This follows on from concert cancellations across Europe and the USA for the rest of this year. Sony is yet to comment on the situation.
Where some dates are cancelled, others aren’t even listed on the venue’s official websites, throwing into question whether they’ll go ahead.
When we attended PlayStation: The Concert earlier this year in Scotland, we found it to be a fun enough time as a PlayStation fan. “If you have an emotional attachment to some of these franchises like I do, then the experience of listening to them in a big stadium surrounded by hundreds of PlayStation fans with a (mostly) live band, will be enough to ensure a good time. And that’s exactly what I had: a good time. I just wished it covered a wider gamut of PlayStation’s history and had done more to remain truly ‘live’.”
If you happen to have tickets to any remaining dates on the tour, the chances of the gig actually going ahead, unfortunately, seem rather slim. Have you had any tickets of your own cancelled? Let us know in the comments below.
