State of Play (October 2021) Predictions and What to Expect
First, let’s focus on what we do know. Sony specified that the next State of Play will focus on “upcoming third-party releases headed to PS5 and PS4”. There were no titles revealed outside of that but based on what we know, we can take a few guesses at what we might see.
Square Enix has an exciting slate of games planned for 2022, and it includes Forspoken, Strangers of Paradise: Final Fantasy Orgins, and Final Fantasy XVI. All are planned for the PS5 with Final Fantasy Origins also confirmed for the PS4.
Other potential titles include Ghostwire: Tokyo and Pragmata, though Pragmata was recently delayed into 2023, so that seems less likely.
For the folks who are always on the lookout for upcoming indie games, it’s possible Stray, Little Devil Inside, and Wytchwood could make an appearance at the show as well.
