State of Play reaction

Redditor's in the PlayStation Subreddit have been sharing their thoughts on everything that was announced.

One user said: "My god I'm so amped for Saros, I wanted Returnal 2 and that looks like exactly what I'm getting!"

"Saros and Wolverine was enough first party for me," a second commented. "But I'm surprised we still haven't seen that God of War spinoff."

A third said: "I got duped after that God of War Dualsense lmao but I ain't disappointed from what followed."

A fourth commented: "Overall a solid State of Play. Halloween and Wolverine look really good."

"Hyped for Deus Ex Remastered," a fifth said.

I've played Battlefield 6's campaign - it could be one of the very best of all time

Following a trailer for Battlefield 6's campaign being shown during State of Play, I can now share I've been lucky enough to play through three missions from the Battlefield 6 single-player campaign - and it's shaping up to be one of the best first-person shooter campaigns I've ever played.

Let's cut to the chase and set the scene - the year is 2027 and NATO is in disarray as a private military corporation known as Pax Armata has risen to take advantage of the chaos.

You play as members of the elite marine raiders unit Dagger 13 as they go on a series of missions to fight against Pax Armata's grab for power.

In the demo, I played a handful of missions set across Gibraltar, the US and Tajikistan.

Wolverine reaction

Let's start off the reaction by seeing what people are saying about Wolverine in the PS5 Subreddit.

On one thread, one user commented: "Rad, looks brutal violence wise."

A second agreed: "Looks f****** brutal. Just absurdly, ridiculously violent lol. I love it."

"Wow, gritty as hell," a third said. "Looks like a ton of environmental effects too. Also, him sliding down that building, the map looks huge - is this open world, so we know?"

A fourth could barely contain their excitement: "Console f****** seller. Day 1 HOLYYY F*******."

And a fifth said: "Damn, I wasn't expecting that level of brutality. Sign me up!"

Event finishes

And that's it! The PlayStation State of Play event has now concluded.

Saros

We're starting off with first-party title Saros - a trailer shows an eclipse of the sun taking place over a desolate land before showing gameplay.

Like Returnal, it's a fast paced third-person shooter. Arjun Devraj, the main character, has the ability to create an impenetrable shield around him and take out enemies using a number of different explosive ways.

It takes place on the planet of Carcosa which is kind of giving Arrakis vibes from Dune.

There's Second Chance where players can be revived on the first death and is part of a progression system where players will always come back stronger.

That's out on 20 March 2026, along with an enhanced PS5 Pro version too.

Here we go

PlayStation State of Play is underway! Keep it locked for everything as it happens.

What have we got first up...

Reminder: What will be announced at PlayStation State of Play?

Starting with what we know so far, Sony said: "We’ll share new looks at anticipated third-party and indie titles, plus updates from some of our teams at PlayStation Studios - including an extended look at Saros, Housemarque's mysterious new title arriving next year. Look forward to nearly five minutes of gameplay captured on PS5."

Housemarque developed Returnal.

Saros is a new adventure set on the lost off-world colony of Carcosa during an ominous eclipse. The main protagonist is Arjun Devraj, who is a powerful Soltari Enforcer who will stop at nothing to find who he is looking for.

After each death, players will face a changed world but can permanently upgrade and customise loadouts, enabling Arjun to come back stronger every time.

The main game that has been speculated to be revealed is Marvel's Wolverine. Before the State of Play stream was announced, it was reported the game could feature at a speculated event.

There could be an update about Naughty Dog's upcoming new IP Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet or perhaps even news about what God of War studio Santa Monica has been working on as speculation suggests it's cooking up something.

Bungie's Marathon could be back on the table (although there have been reports saying this will not be the case) and there could be a final look at Ghost of Yotei before its release on 2 October.

Stream is live

The stream is live and the countdown is on. There's 15 minutes left to go until PlayStation State of Play gets underway.

You can tune in using the embedded video above or by checking out PlayStation's YouTube or Twitch channels.

More of what gamers want to see announced

There's another Megathread, this one in the PlayStation Subreddit, of what gamers want to see announced during the State of Play stream.

One pleaded: "WOLVERINE MY BELOVED PLEASE APPEAR."

"Plz don't let this be more Ghost of Yotei footage and give us never announced games," a second said.

A third commented: "God of War Egypt please. I'm dying to know what's next with Kratos!"

A fourth noted: "Five minutes of Saros gameplay is confirmed. Very excited for this!"

And a fifth hopes: "Bloodborne remastered plsssssss."

One hour to go

There's just one hour to go until the PlayStation State of Play event gets underway.

We'll continue to build up to the event, cover it live and have all the reaction afterwards so don't go anywhere.

What gamers want to see announced

On a thread in the GamingLeaksAndRumours Subreddit, gamers have been sharing what they want to see announced during the State of Play event.

One user said: "Saros, God of War, Wolverine, Red Dead 2 PS5, RE9."

"Why exactly are people expecting RDR2 next gen update on Sony presentation?" a second asked.

A third commented: "I am gonna be completely delusional and hope for some Ratchet and Clank news."

"I'd just really enjoy a tease of FF9," a fourth hopes. "Gimme a taste."

And a fifth said: "It won't be the best place, and I know it's unlikely, but I want MGS Volume 2."
