Sony held its State of Play showcase early Friday, where it made several new announcements on upcoming PS5 and PS VR2 games. The PlayStation parent provided updates on some already announced games and came out with a few new reveals. As rumoured, Team Asobi is working on Astro Bot, a sequel to Astro's Playroom that is set to arrive later this year on PS5. The showcase also featured new trailers for live service shooter Concorde and horror titles Until Dawn and Silent Hill 2.
State of Play kicked off the summer season of video games industry showcase events, where major publishers and developers will announce updates on upcoming titles and reveal new games. Geoff Keighley's Summer Game Fest begins June 7, followed by the Xbox Games Showcase on June 9. While Sony didn't announce a project from its major studios, the State of Play showcase had plenty of interesting announcements for the coming year. Here's everything that was announced or revealed during the stream
God of War Ragnarok is the latest first-party PlayStation title being ported to PC. Santa Monica Studio's acclaimed action-adventure title, which was released on PS5 and PS4 in 2022, will launch on PC on September 19, 2024. The port will be done in collaboration with Jetpack Interactive, the studio that worked on the PC port of God of War (2018).
The announcement came with a trailer, confirming that the PC version of the game will get PC features like unlocked framerates, support for Nvidia DLSS 3.7, AMD FSR 3.1 and Intel XeSS 1.3 upscaling techniques, and super ultra-wide monitor support. The game will also include last year's Valhalla DLC.
Team Asobi is finally bringing a sequel to Astro's Playroom, the 3D platformer that came pre-installed on PS5 and served as a tech demo for new DualSense controller features. Astro Bot is described as a “space adventure” much larger in scope than previous games, where players will get to explore six galaxies and over 80 levels in search of Astro's crew.
Astro Bot announcement came with a lengthy gameplay trailer, showing diverse environments and new gameplay mechanics. The game will launch September 6 exclusively on PS5, with pre-orders going live June 7.
Firewalk Studios' upcoming multiplayer shooter Concord received a new trailer at State of Play, revealing gameplay, world and its characters and their distinct abilities. First teased last year, Concord is a 5v5 multiplayer shooter in the vein of Overwatch and Valorant.
The live service title will launch on both PS5 and PC on August 23, 2024. The game will get a planned beta test ahead of launch.
Silent Hill 2 remake received a new trailer, revealing its release date. The psychological survival horror, which was first announced in 2022, is arriving on PS5

Monster Hunter Wilds, Astro Bot the Biggest PS5 Winners from State of Play | Push Square
It’s always interesting to look at the most viewed trailers after a State of Play has aired, just to get a better idea of which titles resonated with fans. While this is far from a scientific experiment – especially when you consider we’re only taking into account views from the PlayStation channel roughly 12 hours after the event aired – it does help to illustrate which PS5 games proved a hit with fans.

God of War Ragnarök heads to PC with DLSS, ultrawide support, and a PSN requirement for some reason
Per last night’s Sony State of Play, PS5 darling and supposedly rather good action-dad adventure God of War Ragnarök is coming to PC on September 19th 2024. The good news is that the port, co-developed by Jetpack Interactive and original makers Santa Monica Studio, will pack in all the DLSS 3, FSR 3, and ultrawide what-have-yous that one might expect from a big, monied PC release. The bad, silly, clearly pointless news is that it will need a PlayStation Network (PSN) account, despite the complete lack of multiplayer.
