Overview
- Sony will air two consecutive State of Play livestreams on Thursday, September 3, 2026, with the main show starting at 6 a.m. PDT / 9 a.m. EDT and State of Play Japan to run immediately afterward.
- Both broadcasts will stream on PlayStation’s official YouTube and Twitch channels so global audiences can watch the full double bill live.
- PlayStation has confirmed that Final Fantasy VII Revelation will close the main State of Play with an extended look at the game.
- Sony has not disclosed runtimes or a full lineup, which has prompted industry speculation about other major appearances such as a possible Naughty Dog update or a Marvel’s Wolverine trailer but those reports remain unconfirmed.
- State of Play Japan will be hosted by voice actor Yuki Kaji and is positioned to highlight games from Japan and Asia ahead of Tokyo Game Show, a format that may concentrate regional announcements and shape viewer reaction to Sony’s broader digital-ownership policies.
