PlayStation is getting back to what it’s good at

TL;DR

  • PlayStation's State of Play emphasized a return to single-player, narrative-driven games.
  • The showcase featured extensive gameplay for Insomniac's Marvel's Wolverine and revealed God of War Laufey.
  • Several third-party single-player titles were also highlighted, with release dates ranging from upcoming months to February.
  • Live-service and multiplayer games were largely absent, with Marathon's Season 2 being a notable exception.
  • Sony's recent live-service attempts have faced challenges, including layoffs and game cancellations.
  • The shift aims to capitalize on the PlayStation brand's strong association with acclaimed single-player titles.
  • Upcoming titles like Laufey and Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet still lack release dates.
