– Marvel’s Wolverine State of Play set for June 2 with a 60+ minute showcase, potentially revealing more gameplay and other projects.
– Expect updates on other Sony projects (Insomniac’s Venom, Naughty Dog’s Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet) and possibly more from first/third-party titles.
– The event could hint at GTA 6 marketing/pre-orders due to Sony’s quasi-exclusivity deal with Rockstar, signaling a broader reveal window.
Marvel’s Wolverine Update and the Upcoming State of Play
With Saros finally out and about, the only major PlayStation exclusive due to drop this year is the highly anticipated Marvel’s Wolverine. While Sony has officially confirmed the game will be playable on September 15, the company hasn’t shown much gameplay. That is set to change on June 2.
A New State of Play Details
A new Marvel’s Wolverine-focused State of Play will be broadcast on 14:00 PT/23:00 CEST via Sony’s Twitch/YouTube channels. If you’re impatient, footage of Wolverine already exists thanks to the efforts of some hackers bringing the game to PC well before its PS5 debut. And of course, the hope for a Bloodborne remake/remaster remains eternal.
What to Expect From the Showcase
The showcase is said to be over sixty minutes long, meaning we might get a glimpse at numerous other first and third-party projects that Sony is cooking up. Insomniac’s other Marvel game, Venom, is long overdue for a teaser and it would be nice if it got some airtime. Naughty Dog’s ambitious project, Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, is likely to get a spot, but Sony will probably have another State of Play dedicated to it.
Sony’s State of Play Timing and Speculation
Sony usually announces a State of Play a few days before launch. The two-week hiatus indicates something big might be shown off. Could that be GTA 6? Not entirely implausible because of Sony’s quasi-exclusivity deal with Rockstar Games when it comes to GTA VI marketing. It would be as good a time as any to open up pre-orders.
