PlayStation State of Play June 2026: start time, how to watch and expectations

The upcoming PlayStation State of Play livestream, scheduled for June 2, 2026, promises to be an exciting showcase for gamers and Sony fans alike. Following the tradition of E3, the event will offer a look at what’s next for PlayStation, from both internal studios and external partners.

How to watch

The State of Play will be streamed live on Sony’s official YouTube and Twitch channels, making it easy for viewers around the world to tune in.

State of Play start time

The livestream begins on June 2, 2026, at the following times:

• 2 PM PT

• 5 PM ET

• 10 PM BST

• 11 PM CEST

• 6 AM JST (June 3)

What to expect

The presentation will feature more than an hour of updates, announcements and gameplay reveals from studios around the world. One of the likely highlights is the introduction of Marvel's Wolverine, which is expected to open the event. Alongside that game, Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls from Arc System Works is also expected to appear, as it is set to launch on August 6, 2026.

There is also speculation about other titles that could be announced during the event. Rumor has it that Horizon: Hunters Gathering, a new entry in the Horizon franchise, may also be shown. Other possible games include Naughty Dog's Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet and Haven Studios' FairGame$, which may have changed its name.

On the third-party side, there are also high expectations for updates on Persona 6 and a remaster of Rayman Origins. The biggest question mark, however, remains Grand Theft Auto VI from Rockstar Games, which has not been shown for a long time since its second trailer. Given the marketing deal with Sony, it would not be surprising if the game gets another look during this event before it launches in November.

With plenty of excitement around the event, fans have a chance to catch a glimpse of PlayStation’s future. It is still unclear which other titles or updates will be featured, but interest is already running high.
