Sony Interactive Entertainment has confirmed that two consecutive PlayStation State of Play presentations will take place on September 3, 2026. Both events will be streamed live via PlayStation’s official YouTube and Twitch channels.

The first broadcast will feature updates from PlayStation Studios and third-party partners. A primary highlight is an extended look at Square Enix’s ‘Final Fantasy VII Revelation’, which is expected to release in spring 2027. While industry speculation has surrounded other potential titles such as ‘Marvel’s Wolverine’, ‘God of War: Laufey’, and ‘Until Dawn 2’, Sony has not officially confirmed the full lineup. This initial showcase will be conducted in English with Japanese subtitles.

Immediately following the main event, a dedicated ‘State of Play Japan’ broadcast will air. Hosted by voice actor Yuki Kaji, this second presentation will focus on upcoming titles from developers across Japan and Asia, featuring new gameplay footage and official announcements. This segment will be broadcast in Japanese with English subtitles.
