PlayStation fans are preparing for the PS5 State of Play event in February, as Sony has confirmed that its latest showcase will air on February 12 at 5 pm ET. The presentation will focus on upcoming PS5 titles and is expected to run for more than an hour.
Sony has positioned the State of Play broadcasts as a platform for major updates. This edition promises fresh announcements, gameplay reveals, and insights from game studios around the world. As a result, anticipation is building among players eager to see what’s next for the PlayStation 5.
According to Sony, viewers can expect “news, gameplay updates, and announcements from game studios across the globe.” However, the company has not revealed a full list of featured titles. That leaves room for surprise reveals and last-minute additions.
What to Expect From the PS5 State of Play February Event
The PS5 State of Play February event is widely expected to spotlight major single-player experiences. Sony often uses these showcases to highlight narrative-driven exclusives, especially from high-profile studios.
Naughty Dog, one of PlayStation’s most celebrated developers, is frequently linked to speculation around new announcements. While nothing is confirmed, fans are hopeful for updates on future projects or fresh gameplay footage.

Titles such as Horizon Hunters Gathering and Marathon could be featured in new trailers or through development insights. These projects signal the company’s broader strategy to diversify its portfolio beyond traditional story-driven games.
Nevertheless, not every anticipated title may make the cut. Reports suggest that Insomniac Games’ Wolverine project is unlikely to feature during this broadcast. If true, fans may need to wait for a future showcase for updates on that game.
