This Tuesday’s PlayStation State of Play will be a distinctive episode, emphasizing games developed in Japan and throughout Asia. With The Game Awards approaching and the year’s end drawing nearer, announcements regarding games continue to come in. This Tuesday’s PlayStation State of Play will be a distinctive episode, emphasizing games developed in Japan and throughout Asia. The presentation will be led by voice actor Yuki Kaji, who will be presenting games, conducting interviews, and providing fresh insights on eagerly awaited titles. This State of Play is set to commence at 7:00 AM JST (2:00 PM PT / 5:00 PM ET). The Japanese PlayStation YouTube channel will feature a complete Japanese-language version, while the PlayStation YouTube channel will showcase Japanese audio with English subtitles.

As stated by Sony, the show is anticipated to exceed 40 minutes in duration, mainly “concentrating on games produced in Japan and across Asia, along with a few other thrilling updates.” While this might suggest that Western-developed PlayStation first-party titles such as Housemarque’s Saros, Marvel’s Wolverine, and Naughty Dog’s Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet may not take center stage in this State of Play, there are numerous exciting prospects to showcase. One of these titles is Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls, currently in development in Japan by Arc System Works alongside Sony and Marvel Games. This is the same studio responsible for the Guilty Gear and BlazBlue series.

Another potential highlight in this special State of Play could involve Where Winds Meet. It is an upcoming action game developed by Chinese studio Everstone Studio. The game was previously confirmed as a PlayStation exclusive upon release. Where Winds Meet is an epic Wuxia open-world action-adventure RPG set in ancient China during the tenth century. Players take on the role of a young sword master on a quest to unveil the secrets of their own identity. With a global launch anticipated this Friday, November 14th, it wouldn’t be unexpected to see a final promotional piece.

Additional noteworthy titles include the Elden Ring Nightreign DLC, Phantom Blade Zero, Tides of Annihilation, and Petit Planet (a new cozy life simulation game from the creators of Genshin Impact and Honkai Star Rail). And like many Souls enthusiasts out there, we can only keep hoping for a new teaser for Bloodborne.

State of Play Japan will be broadcast on YouTube on November 11 at 2pm PT / 5pm ET / 11pm CEST | November 12 at 7am JST.
