According to the Japanese giant's Twitter account and the official blog, the event will take place on August 6th at 22pm, hours, during which not only a few will be shown third-party titles coming to PS4 and PS VR, but also of PlayStation 5 game related updates shown last June 11. Furthermore, according to the recent press release of the Japanese company, the panel will last about 40 minutes. We report in detail what was communicated:
It's been a while… but State of Play will return this Thursday with a focus on third-party published games coming to PS4 and PS VR. We will have some updates related to PS5 third party and indie games, which you last saw during the June showcase.
