Rumors had been flying around that PlayStation Showcase would be taking place later in the month of May, but we just got through half the month with no update leading to fans thinking the rumor was false.
No it’s been officially announced by PlayStation that a showcase is indeed happening, and it will be next week on Wednesday, May 24, 2023. Here’s the post:
We don’t have any teasers for what kind of announcements to expect, but some fans think that this will finally be Insomniac’s chance to give us a good look at the upcoming Spider-Man 2 game which will be a new-gen exclusive. Rumors have also suggested that Konami could be revealing their remake of Metal Gear Solid 3. We should also expect to get a closer look at some PS VR2 titles that are currently in development.
Personally, I’m just waiting on Naughty Dog to confirm that work has started on The Last of Us Part III. We know that development can take years, but I’d be happy with just a teaser image, knowing that Ellie (and hopefully Abby) will eventually return.
For now, all fans can really do is wait. While everyone does have their wishlist of titles they want announced or teased, I also like it when the studio reveals something that’s completely new, original, and unexpected. Being right is great, but being too predictable can also get kind of boring so PlayStation should best invest on some new IP too.
Watch out for the PlayStation Showcase next week on May 24.
