Gaming's latest worst-kept secret was finally announced today, as PlayStation confirmed a new State of Play live stream will hit the airwaves tomorrow.
Sony revealed that this State of Play will consist of "more than 35 minutes of reveals and news from developers around the world," including "new looks at anticipated third-party and indie titles, plus updates from some of our teams at PlayStation Studios."
The main course for this event appears to be SAROS, with five minutes of gameplay for Returnal dev Housemarque's next title ready to be shown off. But beyond that, we're left a bit in the dark as to what to expect. But here's what we're thinking we could be shown.

Sept. 2025 State of Play predictions
Marvel's Wolverine
You ready, bub? I certainly hope Logan is ready to show off how he's looking over four years since the next title from Insomniac Games was revealed. It's been nearly two years since the massive hack that dropped a bunch of pre-alpha gameplay and story details for the game, and I think it's high time for the Marvel Spider-Man's dev to reveal what it's been working on since.
And while we're at it, why not confirm Marvel's Spider-Man 3? It's years away, but confirmation that it's coming would bring enough hype to sate the fanbase for a while.
Resident Evil Requiem
A plethora of rumors have pointed to the next RE9 showcase finally confirming that Leon Kennedy will be a second playable character in the survival horror sequel. Now's the time to start ratcheting up the hype leading towards the game's release at the end of February, and Leon is the perfect agent for that. If not during this State of Play, then expect RE9 next week at TGS.
Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet
Heading into 2026, Naughty Dog's new IP is one that PlayStation is banking on. A new trailer showcasing some gameplay or more story elements, along with a confirmed release window, would really light things up.
Marathon update
Bungie's sci-fi extraction shooter was meant to release this week, but after a disappointing closed beta test and plagiarism scandal, the Destiny dev has been working on fixing wrongs and bringing the game up to snuff. I'd expect an update on the game as well as a new release date during this showcase.
Fairgame$? Maybe? Hello?
This game may be dead in the water, or maybe Haven Studios has been working hard behind the scenes on the PvPvE heist game that hasn't been heard from since its reveal two years ago. Either way, I would love to know more.
Ghost of Yotei
The State of Play takes place one day before Ghost of Yotei reviews begin popping up, so I'd expect another short trailer or launch trailer to be shown during the showcase.
Third-party titles
It's reasonable to expect several trailers and updates for games not made by PlayStation, but ones that could have a big impact on the rest of the year. Battlefield 6, ARC Raiders, and some other titles coming in early 2026 could pop up. GTA 6? I won't hold my breath.
The September 2025 State of Play kicks off on Sept. 24 at 4pm CT, and will be live-streamed on PlayStation's YouTube and Twitch channels.
