Every big announcement from PlayStation’s new State of Play
Sony’s latest State of Play livestream was full of new game announcements and updates for all things PlayStation 5 and PlayStation VR 2 — with a little bit of PlayStation content for PC as well. PlayStation fans got a look at a new game starring the lovable Astro Bot, a new Dynasty Warriors, a release date for the Silent Hill 2 remake, and confirmation of a few games making the jump from PC to PS5 (and vice versa).
