The main problem was that nearly all of the biggest games shown in Sony’s PlayStation showcase are … also coming to Xbox.
Other bits of the show just didn’t seem to matter much. A look at Assassin’s Creed Mirage, which we’ve already seen a lot of, and is as multiplatform as multiplatform gets. Somehow a full spot for Tower of Fantasy, the bad Genshin Impact knock-off that’s already out.
Take out all the multiplatform stuff and there was barely anything there, and looking ahead to 2024, if Spider-Man 2 does make it out in 2023, there sure is not that much there, at least going off this showcase. We received no information on projects like Insomniac’s Wolverine, Naughty Dog’s The Last of Us Factions, Sucker Punch’s Ghost of Tsushima 2. No big IP debuts from anyone besides Bungie’s Marathon, which is, again, multiplatform.
This was supposed to be Sony’s biggest showcase in at least two years. Instead, we got content from a game out in a month and another out by the end of this year. Most of the rest was multiplatform, and loads and loads of future projects were missing in action. Not that Sony is in danger of an unsuccessful generation here given the speed of sales of the PS5 and what they’ve already released, but as showcases go, it was not a good one, that is inarguable.
