Games From Third-Party Partners
5 Things to Expect from This Week’s PlayStation State of Play
Games from third-party partners are one of the main focuses of this upcoming event. Although there isn’t an official list of titles, fans have a few theories on what Sony will showcase, including Final Fantasy XVI and Street Fighter 6. An announcement for Final Fantasy XVI has revealed that more information would come in Spring 2022. However, now that it is close to summertime, the game has been getting more attention, especially since Naoki Yoshida, the producer of Final Fantasy XVI, has mentioned a tentative trailer release. Alongside Square Enix’s hit game is Street Fighter 6, which had a teaser trailer a few months ago. Because Sony has emphasized that this State of Play will feature third-party partner games, the company will likely exhibit its latest collaboration with Capcom. Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora and Annapurna Interactive’s Stray are other possible games for this event. The new Avatar game was one of the exclusives mentioned in Sony’s 2022 Business Segment Briefings, including several more titles.
