Yes, you read that correctly – a PlayStation State of Play stream is taking place tomorrow, June 4, promising at least 40 minutes of juicy news and updates about PS5 games, right before Summer Game Fest takes the spotlight later in the week.

In a PlayStation Blog post confirming the announcement, Sony reveals that the "40+ minute show" will take place at 2pm PT / 5pm ET / 10pm BST / 11pm CEST, so depending on where you live, it's going to be a bit of a late one. As usual, you can expect it to be streamed on YouTube and Twitch.

Now, the question remains of what's going to be shown. Looking at the slate of new and upcoming PS5 games, we've got Death Stranding 2, Ghost of Yotei, Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, and more already eyeing up releases for this year, so perhaps those could feature at the State of Play? However, Sony hasn't made it clear if its presentation will be focused on games that've already been announced, or if it's got some new surprises in store for us.

Between all those showcases and the Switch 2 launch on Thursday, June 5, it's a seriously packed week for all things gaming. Excited? You should be! Let's just hope that all the upcoming announcements are able to live up to the hype. I'm sure this isn't going to shock anyone, but Hollow Knight Silksong hopefuls are already crossing their fingers that the beloved Metroidvania might make an appearance at some point this week – whether that actually happens is another matter, though.

After spending more hours than I can count filling The University of Sheffield's student newspaper with Pokemon and indie game content, and picking up a degree in Journalism Studies, I started my career at GAMINGbible where I worked as a journalist for over a year and a half. I then became TechRadar Gaming's news writer, where I sourced stories and wrote about all sorts of intriguing topics. In my spare time, you're sure to find me on my Nintendo Switch or PS5 playing through story-driven RPGs like Xenoblade Chronicles and Persona 5 Royal, nuzlocking old Pokemon games, or going for a Victory Royale in Fortnite.
