Watch the PlayStation State of Play September 13 livestream here

A PlayStation State of Play livestream is happening today and you can watch it right here.

38

It’s a big day for video game livestreams as PlayStation is set to host another State of Play. Today’s stream will only last 20 minutes, but it will be full of reveals, announcements, and fresh news from PlayStation’s Japanese partners and developers from around the world. Tune in to the livestream below.

The PlayStation State of Play is scheduled to begin at 3:00 p.m. PT / 5:00 p.m. ET on September 13, 2022. The duration of the livestream is set at about 20 minutes, meaning it will only be a brief show. However, though brief, it will likely feel jam-packed as it will cover 10 games coming to PS4, PS5, and PS VR2.

The official PlayStation blog notes that with Tokyo Game Show arriving, it’s the ideal time to celebrate its Japanese partners. Though, the livestream isn’t limited to developers from one region, as the show will also include “surprises from developers all around the world.”

As for what games viewers can expect, it’s anyone’s guess at this point. One of the biggest releases coming this year is God of War Ragnarok and, given it’s coming out in November, now might be a great time to release another trailer. Viewers might also hear more about Valkyrie Elysium. This title is releasing on September 29 and is developed by Square Enix. Take a look at the 2022 video game release date calendar to see what else is releasing this year.

After the PlayStation State of Play livestream has concluded, be sure to check out the Shacknews PlayStation page for our coverage of the event. We’ll have all the announcements and reveals for you to read, in the event you missed a nugget of news.

            I’ll have to rewatch. I didn’t even register the horse, trying to take in that combat, that looked so good compared to Ghost of Tsushima.

        Hehe, you were more ok with it than I was when it came out, but even I am getting a better feeling from this one.

        My two big gripes were the combat, especially the hit detection/move interpolation, was flakey and imprecise and that still seems to be an issue here, but less, and the old fashioned narrative structure of “go here to get this, whoops way is blocked, fins a way around”. No way to tell if that’s been improved, but the character motivations seem more believable and weighty this time, which is good.

          September 13, 2022 4:07 PM

          Yeah, it petered out pretty quick for me about 1/3 of the way through. This seems more interesting, we'll see!

            September 13, 2022 4:18 PM

            I stuck with it to the end, but begrudgingly. I did really like the shrine puzzles. Those were best in breed.

            Out of this showcase today, Rise of the Ronin has me the most hyped. Has everything I didn’t see from Ghost of Tsushima, which I still haven’t bothered to play because of how on the fence I’ve been about it.

          • reply
            September 13, 2022 4:20 PM

            Really? Wow. I thought it was narratively one of the best games to come out in quite some time. I can understand people not liking the combat though. If that's what made you get bored. I couldn't pout it down, I binged it because I wanted to see how the story played out.

            • reply
              September 13, 2022 4:30 PM

              Yeah, in an action game the mechanics and gameplay really need to carry me. If I'm playing a JRPG or something then ofc my expectations are elsewhere and I can let that slide.

              I still liked it, just didn't love it

        When it got shown originally, I was a little hmm at the gameplay (it was a demo of someone just fighting a boss in an arena), but this looks much better fleshed out, with more going on.

        So many hack n slash games in the pipeline. I’m actually looking forward to Gungrave G.O.R.E. It’ll have a lot of attitude.

          Ooh I forgot about that one, it looks great. I'm glad Japanese developers have embraced their Japanese-ness, but bringing in modern sensibilities and fresh settings. They learned their lesson I guess.

        I wonder how close that’s going to look to final gameplay.

        I’m mostly a Soul Calibur gal, normally, but nothing wrong with Tekken!

        September 13, 2022 5:45 PM

        SF 6 actually looks great, Project L is next year, I'm still playing Smash, and even tho some of the shine came off Multiversus for me I'm still enjoy it.

        All of this is to say HOW ON EARTH AM I SUPPOSED TO CRAM ONE MORE FIGHTING GAME INTO MY BRAIN?

        • reply
          September 13, 2022 5:45 PM

          Especially one like Tekken where there's a zillion button combos to learn. My brain has only so much capacity!

          September 13, 2022 6:25 PM

          It is looking very likely that we will have tekken 8, sf6, project L and nether realm's next game all in 2023. Fighting game golden age round 2?

              Fatal Fury and another Capcom/SNK crossover are the others I’m looking forward to.

              Capcom Vs SNK 3 would be so great

          I never really paid much attention to the plot in Tekken before, but I watched a recap a few weeks ago of the 'canon' storyline that's been running through the game series and it seems clear that Tekken always has and always will be insane.

      • reply
        September 13, 2022 11:01 PM

        Yes, but there really wasn't much to go on so far. I'm more interested in how the game will play, changes to system mechanics, etc. Graphics look good, but there are so many good fighting games out now that they need to show me good gameplay and good netcode before I start to get hyped up.

          I have to say, this trailer was really rad = 11/10. The background detail, detail in general, lighting and particles have been majorly juiced up!!!!!!!!!!

          Feels good man, I think it is going to be massive for the the Tekken fans.

      Damn, Rise of the Ronin looks amazing : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0gwsQvDGh4o and it's on the PC too!

      It's a Team Ninja game: "a combat-focused open-world action RPG that takes place in Japan at a time of great change. It is the very end of a 300-year-long Edo Period, commonly known as “Bakumatsu”. The game is set in late 19th Century Japan as it faces the tides of change as civil war continues to rage between the Tokugawa Shogunate and the Anti-Shogunate factions."

      Day one for me, I guess I don't care when Ghost of Tsushima 2 will be ready :) .

        I wonder if they make it before the Assassin's Creed game also set in Japan. Add GOT2 to this and suddenly we have 3 quite similar games coming out relatively near to each other.
