What to Expect

The PlayStation Blog confirms that nine of the 30 minutes during the stream will be dedicated to Arkane's time-bending shooter, with the rest focusing on third party and indie titles. No other specific titles were confirmed to be featured.

The PlayStation Blog post did, however, specify things that will not be part of the presentation, saying that "the showcase will not include updates on the next God of War, Horizon Forbidden West, or the next generation of PlayStation VR." More updates on these are due "throughout the summer" according to Sony.

This showcase will not include updates on the next God of War, Horizon Forbidden West or the next generation of PlayStation VR. Stay tuned throughout the summer though, as we’ll have more updates soon.
