Sony Interactive Entertainment is unlikely to host a State of Play or PlayStation Showcase in May, breaking the tradition of hosting events during this period for over five years.
While not confirmed officially, the absence of any news about a May event from Sony suggests it is not likely to happen soon. Sony might announce an event last minute, but currently, chances seem low.
There have been discussions about a PlayStation Showcase for summer according to Jeff Grubb, hinting at a possible event at a later date. E3's absence this year has led to Summer Games Fest, where major PlayStation news may be shared.
Upcoming PS5 titles include Death Stranding 2: On the Beach in late June, Ghost of Yotei later this year, and Saros next year. Details on Marvel's Wolverine have been quiet, leaving room for a potential State of Play for future game updates.
