Sony announced the long-rumored January 2024 State of Play event, set to air on Jan. 31, 2024, with 40 minutes of announcements and updates for upcoming PS5 games. Sony said we can expect “some of the most talented minds in gaming” and reveals from studios across the world. Two of those 15 games are Stellar Blade, which it seems like we’ve been seeing for years now, and Rise of the Ronin, Team Ninja’s latest, set to launch in March 2024.

We've laid out when the January 2024 State of Play starts and what to expect from it below.

In addition to Stellar Blade and Rise of the Ronin, Sony said it plans to show 13 or more games for PS5 and PS VR 2 set to launch "in 2024 and beyond." 

Some rumors suggest we'll see Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth and perhaps even a demo, while recent Death Stranding 2 leaks have others speculating Hideo Kojima will make an appearance. Whether any of these rumors prove true, we'll just have to wait and see.
