Suffice to say, there’s no way to verify these details, which could turn out to be a whole lot of hot air, but they certainly seem plausible, and are enough to get excited about nonetheless. According to the leak, PlayStation’s next State of Play live stream will be on November 1 later this year, and will focus on three major new games of 2019 and beyond.

If the latest leaks are to be believed, its been a blowout morning for PlayStation fans. Not only have details of the next State of Play supposedly found their way onto the internet (via NeoGaf and 4Chan), but a leaked marketing email from Sony apparently refers to a “PlayStation Meeting 2020” that’s set to finally reveal the PS5 in all its glory. That means we could be hearing more about the PS5 price, PS5 specs, and the accompanying virtual reality headset, the PSVR 2, which the leak also stat
