Hey folks!

I know it might be premature to start a topic on a summer show for PS when it's still in the rumor mill, but I still thought it would be fun to chat about the community's state of mind for upcoming games going into May! As some of you know, there's been news brewing among a few 'insiders' saying that Sony is prepping a show for the month of May, notably Jeff Grubb. No confirmations yet, and Grubb himself isn't sure what kind of show it is though he is «leaning» towards a showcase. So, assuming we get a show this summer, what would you like to see? What do you think is possible?

For kicks, I'll share a few of my own if a show is in the pipeline....

Very likely:
Concord Reveal with gameplay
Silent Hill 2 trailer and release date
Until Dawn Remake
Helldivers 2 content update/roadmap
At least 1 game reveal/update from Capcom
At least 1 game reveal/update from Square Enix
At least 1 remaster/remake of a PS first party title
A couple PSVR2 games, at least one first party
Elden Ring DLC trailer/update, just a bit more gameplay

Plausible:
Medievil 2 Remake (I really hope that Other Ocean article is true, but still a bit skeptical)
Next Sucker Punch game (likely GoT 2)
Cory Barlog's game
Astro game (PS5/PSVR2)
Wolverine update
New FromSoft game
FF9 Remake (This one I'll get flack for, but I'll own it, I think it could show this summer)
FF Tactics Remake (Same as FF9)
Fairgames gameplay/update
MGS Collection Vol. 2
Anything from Naughty Dog

Wishful:
Bloodborne 2
Medievil 3
Dragon Quest XII
Resident Evil 9
Bluepoint game update (I think it's way too early)

I know there's loads here! And I could have added more like Bend Studio, specific PSVR2 titles, and hardware like the PS5 Pro. I don't think most of these would happen if a show is announced, so take this as a wishlist with what I think is possible on a really basic scale of likelihood. Wouldn't surprise me if only 3-4 showed up if we get a presentation from Sony.

Finally, for the community, this is meant to be a lighthearted thread. We are having a fun discussion of what we might expect from a summer show, and can share updates together based on various rumors and leaks that come our way in gaming news. Just have a good time as we enter summer gaming season

Ace combat 8 has to be around the corner, and with full psvr 2 support.
Put that Kenny Loggins CD on and get ready to fly into the danger zone.

Need Suikoden Remaster release date.

PS5 Pro. Maybe some random remakes of not very old games (such a weird new trend)

It'd be nice to see what the Wolverine game will actually be like though, maybe have a proper Imsomniac segment, even if it is mostly just talking about how excited they are to be making it. Sven's Larian live streams went a massive way
