Generally, though, they seem to be scheduled from the middle of the month onwards. I reckon we are probably about two to three weeks away from a State of Play, should history repeat itself, based on what Sony has done before.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" align=\"center\"><p>Working to confirm the date; but a State of Play in September is looking incredibly likely and soon.\u2014 NateTheHate2 (@NateTheHate2) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/NateTheHate2\/status\/2093865049471262989?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow\">August 30, 2026<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>This raises the obvious question: what will be there?<\/p>\n<p>Sony has first-party projects like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pushsquare.com\/games\/ps5\/god_of_war_laufey\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">God of War Laufey<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pushsquare.com\/games\/ps5\/until_dawn_2\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Until Dawn 2<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pushsquare.com\/games\/ps5\/fairgames\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Fairgames<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pushsquare.com\/games\/ps5\/intergalactic_the_heretic_prophet\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Intergalactic<\/a> as potential attendees in terms of confirmed titles.
