Gaming industry insider Jeff Grubb shared on social media that so far, he hasn't heard anything about the upcoming PlayStation Showcase or the State of Play for December. As 2024 draws to a close, many people expect a few more big announcements for upcoming PlayStation Exclusives and other industry leaders, but the lack of buzz from respected insiders suggests that there may be few if any big developments for PlayStation in the near future.
PlayStation may end in 2024
Some fans have pointed out that Sony has a January 2024 State of Play, using this as evidence to suggest the possibility of an early 2025 event. Others believe that there is still a chance for a November or December show, and that information will be coming in late November. Although there is a lot of anticipation about what the next steps are for PlayStation, there is another event that gamers may be pinning all their hopes on.
Many seem to believe that the Game Awards 2024 show is where any big announcements are made for the end of the year. Xbox, Nintendo, and PlayStation have all used the event at some point to drop big reveals, so it's probably fair to believe this trend will continue. Nintendo fans believe the Game Awards will be a great Switch 2 reveal window as more people will tune in to see what's going on, and Sony could use that time to focus on bigger PlayStation announcements as well.
PlayStation 5
Sony's PlayStation 5 is part of the ninth console generation and debuted with a launch lineup that included Demon's Souls and Astro's Playroom. The console comes with a Blu-ray disc, although a digital-only version is also available at a cheaper price.
