Okay, boys and girls, PlayStation just dropped a bombshell: State of Play is TODAY, and the whole procro nerd population is going berserk. The official tweet went through, and within just minutes, ask-lists filled the reply section along with speculative analyses, hypers, and at certain points downright skepticism. So what’s up? Let us get into it.
Now, first thing first, remember the timing. If from Norway, Grok (yes, that Grok) stated that this event would be at 11 PM CEST. For those in the UK, it would be 10 PM BST. For the rest of y’all, good luck in the time zone department. Yet TenebrousVex has chips and salsa set… so, gear up!
On to the main dessert-black spot that most gamers are begging for: the replies are a chaotic buffet of wish lists. Wolverine homeland gameplay is topping out with psp_snap pleading, “For the love of god please show us Wolverine!” And better take it from me: I’ve been waiting for this too. Insomniac has been teasing it forever, the people are starving for just one sight.
That is followed by the more perennial cry-BLOODBORNE 2. Jheebs1313 throws down a “Bloodborne 2 time!” as if it were a sure thing, but then Xpro_PT returns with that memorable slapping: “🤣 you have better chances of getting Half Life 3.” Ouch. Nevertheless, demand big-time-whether it is a sequel, a remaster, or even a 60fps patch, FromSoftware’s cult hit lives rent-free in the hearts of gamers.
FF faction is less shy about it. Hero_of_Apollo is outright demanding “FINAL FANTASY 7 PART 3 NEWS,” with RamizelQueen throwing in that Tactics Remaster is more likely. And honestly, after that cliffhanger in Rebirth, can you really blame them?
But somehow, it’s possibly a bit longer. Some are mean to other hopes, jo_unkle threw shade: “Between the failures of Bungie and Concord, I’m not expecting pro-consumer practices.” Oof. On the flip side, Amirthespear is just trying to avoid “medieval, space, rogue, or souls-like spam.” Tough crowd.
Smaller gems dropped in too: Lunar Echo wants Dark Cloud 3 (deep cut!), DeadSpacedOut is pleading for any Uncharted content, (“golden Abyss speaks to me!”), or is SuliemanAyub dropping a wild card: “Silent Hill 2 DLC with Mama Maria”? Really?
And what about all these meme brigades? FaiqYasen posted a photo of Geoff Keighley typing… something. nino42435489 declared it’s silkin’ time, alongside some random pic-classic!
So here, usually in the realm of what is likely, Pragmata has been missing forever, the Marvel’s Wolverine is due for some footage, and Sony will for sure be unlocking a vault of IPs. Yet with talks of FF7 Part 3, God of War teasers, and a Medievil 2 remake (shout out to Schic2Guilherme) being supposedly in the table, this State of Play might just explode on a nuclear level.
Bottom line: Tune in, gorge on some snacks, and let the glory or heartbreak begin! Has PlayStation gotten ahold of the mic-let’s hear if they let the gamers down or lift them back up to the “Bloodborne 2 when?” trenches.
