Sony has announced that a new PlayStation State of Play event will take place on March 9, prompting speculation that God of War Ragnarok will be present during the showcase. A new State of Play has been rumored for a while now, especially now that Gran Turismo 7 and Horizon Forbidden West are available, which means Sony is expected to start announcing new games or giving dates for existing titles.
The official PlayStation Twitter page and the PlayStation Blog have revealed some concrete details about the event. The new State of Play will be roughly twenty minutes long and it will focus on games from Japanese publishers, though there will be updates from other developers as well. Fans shouldn't expect to hear any updates about the PSVR 2 hardware or its games, even though the new headset and controllers were recently revealed by Sony. There will be announcements regarding both PS4 and PS5 games, so the previous-gen owners won't be left behind.

There's also a chance that the rumored PlayStation Spartacus will be featured, as rumors suggest that Sony is almost ready to announce the subscription service. If the show is focusing on Japanese publishers, then there's also a chance that FF16 or maybe even FF7 Remake 2 will appear. Fans won't have to wait long to find out, as the State of Play will take place on March 9, 2022, at 2 pm PT/5 PM ET/11 PM CET.
