Sony will hold its first State of Play presentation of 2024 today, giving us an overview of many of the games we can expect to release on PlayStation 5 and PlayStation VR2 over the course of this year. We know that the games shown off will include single-player action game exclusives Stellar Blade and Rise of the Ronin. Hopefully, we also get a look at some of the other high-profile PlayStation exclusives on the horizon, like Concord and Death Stranding 2, in addition to some more third-party announcements.
Over 15 games will be shown during the January 2024 State of Play. In case you aren’t able to tune into that show live or just want to see a comprehensive overview of what Sony shows, we’re doing a live recap of every announcement made during this State of Play. Keep refreshing this page over the course of the 40-minute livestream to learn more about what is being revealed at this event.
Stellar Blade launches this April
One of 2024’s big PS5 exclusives is Stellar Blade, a single-player action game from developer Shift Up. Although we didn’t see much of the game in 2023, it returned in full force at this State of Play. Stellar Blade’s trailer gave us an overview of the game’s premise, world, characters, quest system, exploration, enemies, skill and upgrade systems, combat, and more. At the end of its segment, we got confirmation that Stellar Blade will launch on April 26 for PS5.
A free Silent Hill game launches on PS5 today
Silent Hill had a surprisingly big premise during this State of Play. It began with the reveal of a first-person game titled Silent Hill: The Short Message, which is a free experience that will be released today. We then got our first in-depth look at the remake of Silent Hill 2 since 2022, and it looks like a chilling and eerie reimagining of one of the horror genre’s most iconic games. Konami did not confirm a release date for the remake though.
