Out of the blue, PlayStation has confirmed the return of its State of Play showcase on 12 February 2025, with a whopping 40 minutes of news and updates planned. It’s been several months since the last State of Play, so it feels high time for more announcements.
Given the brief blog post, we know this upcoming show will focus on games coming to PS5 in future, and that it’ll feature “creative and unique” work from a range of game development studios – not just those games coming from PlayStation itself. That leaves the door wide open for speculation.
We’ve already seen some positing this showcase could re-introducing Marvel’s Wolverine, as that game was previously dated for 2025. We could also see games like Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, Ghost of Yōtei, or Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater – or even previously-announced games like Assassin’s Creed Shadows and Monster Hunter Wilds.

For some other left-field picks, the GamesHub team would personally be keen to see more of Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 and the modern ports of Croc and Gex, but we’ll just have to wait to see what’s actually in store.
With 40 minutes of news and announcements, we expect a solid mix of expected and unexpected reveals – and PlayStation has, in the past, managed to pull this off well. Here’s to hoping the latest State of Play lives up to the legacy of its predecessors.
