Edition editor VentureBeat Jeff Grubb shared with reference to reliable sources updated information on the plans of large gaming companies for the current summer.
Sony and PlayStation 5
In the summer, SIE will arrange two events. Initially, the first of them was to pass June 4thHowever, now the terms have changed a little, but we are still talking about the beginning of June. Sony formed a list of non-X-games for the show, not only from internal, but also from third-party studios, and a date change in this regard can lead to “some difficulties”.
Grubb does not know whether the PlayStation 5 will be presented there, but expects the console to be presented in detail to the public before the next event, which will be held in early August. This will be a State of Play presentation on PS5 and PS4 games. Sony Interactive Entertainment is expected to continue to share news through its blog and social networks throughout August.
Earlier, Grubb called the June show Sony a powerful presentation of nekstgena with many gaming displays. Now, when the date has moved, he writes that the event should still be significant, but perhaps not as large as previously thought. Later, the journalist explained on Twitter that this was due to the decision of some companies to arrange announcements on their own.
