As the gaming community eagerly awaits Sony’s next PlayStation State of Play, rumored to be scheduled for late January or early February 2024, whispers and speculations about the event’s lineup have begun to circulate. This anticipation is fueled by recent leaks, though it’s important to approach these rumors with cautious optimism.
The source of the latest leak is insider Shpeshal_Nick, who, despite having a mixed record in the realm of gaming leaks, has garnered attention this time around.
The credibility of these rumors is further bolstered by their reference from other reputable leakers, including billbil-kun. Based on these leaks, the gaming community can tentatively expect a thrilling roster of titles to be showcased at the event.
On the 31st (roughly), Ronins will Rise, we’ll die stranded, have a rebirth and Kojima will fulfil his dream. Sonic will live in the shadow of his generation while the hills will remain silent until the dawn when you’ll need to catch the metro. Just don’t be a Judas about it.
