Sony State of Play: Ghost of Yotei and Everything Announced for PS5 and PSVR 2

For only announcing the event on Monday, Sony had a State of Play presentation on Tuesday jam-packed with trailers, many of which for games we hadn’t seen before, including a dramatic reveal of the Ghost of Tsushima sequel Ghost of Yotei.

The flurry of trailers included reveals of gameplay for hotly anticipated titles like Dragon Age: The Veilguard, Monster Hunter Wilds, Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered and the VR title Hitman: World of Assassination. 

There were also trailers for plenty of updates to current games, including new free content coming to Astro Bot, the last DLC for TMNT: Shredder’s Revenge and the second and final DLC for Alan Wake II. 

Sony included another sizzle reel of games boosted by the upcoming PS5 Pro, including some that were newly revealed to get upgraded visuals from the new console like Dragon’s Dogma 2, The Crew Motorfest and Dragon Age: The Veilguard. 

Sandwiched between new game trailers were reveals of new chrome console and DualSense controller covers for the PS5, which come in three colors: teal, indigo and pearl. These can be preordered starting Oct. 3. 

And without further ado, on to all the game trailers revealed at Sony State of Play.
