In a new post on the PlayStation Blog, Sony’s Social Media director Sid Shuman reveals that the next live State of Play broadcast is just a few days away, on May 9 at 3:30 PDT. Even though this stream is going to be much shorter in length at only 10 minutes, the company has a few big updates it’s looking to share with fans.
The big game attached to this broadcast is MediEvil, as PlayStation Worldwide Studios is planning an extended look at the upcoming remake. In addition to a few other announcements and updates from other PS4 games, the big news is that the State of Play stream will be giving a first look at a brand new, currently unannounced title.
For those hoping to get some news on the upcoming PlayStation 5 console, Shuman confirmed that the stream won’t be touching that subject at all. This may be the final State of Play for a while, as the blog post mentioned that Episode 3 is planned for sometime later this year. Perhaps that could be the episode that touches on Sony’s next generation console plans in more detail.
As the new generation of console hardware quickly approaches, Sony appears to be slowly giving out more and more information. While there’s still plenty of things fans don’t know, Sony made a surprise reveal last month when lead architect Mark Cerny provided some hardware specs of the PlayStation 5 console. The impressive technical specs include things like a Solid State Drive (SSD), improved audio, support for up to 8K resolution, and much more. For longtime fans, the PS5 is also backward compatible with the PS4.
