“The broadcast will be over 40 minutes long, and feature guest appearances from some of the most talented minds in gaming. Among many other updates, we’ll feature extended looks at Stellar Blade and Rise of the Ronin, two great games coming to PS5 this year. And we’ll give you a new look at other titles coming to PS5 and PS VR2 in 2024 and beyond,” Sony’s official description of the event on the PlayStation Blog states.

If you put any credence into leaks, games like Death Stranding 2, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, Concord, the Silent Hill 2 remake, Judas, and more are rumored to appear.
