I think this could come in August, with full VR support either day one or by Black Friday 2018.
That game looks awesome!!
Maybe Sumo Digital could be working on a Twisted Metal game, in collaboration with Santa Monica Studio, with David Jaffe at the helm.
Insomniac announces their next Ratchet game coming in 2019 for PS4 and shows gameplay.
Bluepoint Games announces they're doing a remake of Demon's Souls coming either Holiday 2018 or Early 2019.
Japan Studio announces a new IP, global focused, action heavy.
London announces a new Getaway game.
Manchester Studio reveals a cool new VR game.
Bloodborne 2 developed by Japan Studio, in collaboration with From Software coming Feb or March 2019.

Exactly, 7nm already went into mass production, there's already CPU tech that will provide a huge generational shift up from Jaguar in current gen consoles.
GPU tech will be ready early next year for the power requirements of a new console and overall cost of parts will be at a pretty optimal level for a system to be assembled.
There's really nothing from a technical, economic or even software perspective that prevents PS5 from launching in Holiday 2019.
If I didn't own a PS4 or Switch I'd feel like I was missing out, I don't feel like I'm missing out on anything by not owning an Xbox One.
Sometimes it's not about supporting some "war", sometimes it's just personal opinions.
I don't even feel like I'm missing out not owning a Pro, even though we have a 4K TV in my house for higher than 1080p games that are patched to support higher resolutions.
I'd ra...
Oh I didn't realize you have no reading comprehension skills, sorry you can't get your head around logical points, supported by evidence which is clearly available on the internet.
You put together a post that makes zero sense and shows you're clueless and I'm the one that speaks b******s!
Software always generates more money than hardware does, services do too, so it supports why Sony would be making the statement they did.
Well you have to bare in mind that the IPC gains going from Pitcairn/Bonaire GPU architecture to even Vega will net you more performance, even with the same Floating Point performance figure.
Vega at 1.84TFlops would be like a 2.76TFlop Pitcairn GPU, 12TFlops Navi could be more like 18TFlops Pitcairn.
Let's not forget that you'll also have a huge uplift in CPU Performance compared to Jaguar, in the 8-10X range of Sony uses an 8 Core 16 Thread Ryzen 1, off t...
X hasn't sold very well, this gen has been a disappointment to Microsoft so it would make sense to move forward.
One X isn't a new gen machine, just a technological update because XBox One lacked in performance severely when it launched.
Hardware costs aren't going to go down much in 2020, Sony will jump on pushing the market forward because of the gains that will be available next year, both in performance and cost.
For MS or any con...
Well AMD will be releasing a card early next year for their mid range division of GPUs for $250 which can hit that level of performance.
Tbh it doesn't need to be clocked that high to provide a proper generational leap over PS4.
Sony will pay way less than that too for their SoC with an 8 Core 16 Thread custom Ryzen CPU and current GPU on die.
Maybe 12tflops Navi, with 64CUs clocked at 1475MHz, it could be clocked to 1650MHz and hit 13.5TFlop...
We have one more E3 before we're on to next gen, it's basically pointless for Microsoft to do much, besides set themselves up for the next generation.
Their presentation length is the same as last year and they showed no fruits of any labours last year.
This gen people have waited and waited for Microsoft to hit it out of the park and their shows have been nothing but disappointments.
Phil Spencer needs to go already, regardless of any plans for Az...
Revenue is income before costs are calculated against it, Sony expecting software to drive the company's finances forward is because new hardware customers won't be as numerous as those who will buy new games and subscriptions.
Although hardware sales are never where console makers generate their money, so they should never make hardware their sales focus anyway.
At the start of a new generation you've sold the last generation of hardware to m...
@ImGumby: Clearly you don't understand the economics of processing hardware or how 7nm will work for AMD.
Sony won't be paying $250 for the GPU, actually cost of the actual processing chip is about 1/3rd of that, same is true of that CPU and Navi will be a far more modular component, meaning it's easily scalable.
Retail prices include a substantial profit margin for both the part producer and retailer, they're not representative of what console make...
No Sony didn't confirm PS5 for 2021 lol, hardware will be ready at appropriate costs for a fall 2019 next gen console release, after that you're waiting years for manufacturing processes to provide cost and performance gains to make waiting worthwhile.
6 years is a standard console gen for Sony, with tech available, costs fitting for a new gen it makes perfect sense for them to launch PS5 next year.
Game Devs are also in the loop here.
Ea...
Unless they have surprise internal developers who have been busy for the last few years or secret 3rd party partners I don't think we're getting many surprises.
Maybe 343 has something new, I suspect Playground could show something for Fable if they've had the time, maybe Rare can tease another project, but outside of that it'll likely be the known quantities like the next Halo, Forza Horizon 4, you'd hope Crackdown 3 is finally ready for a release date....
First gen is now, next year the process will have had months of optimizations, it'll be ready for consumer parts.
Current gen games are based on slower CPUs, older architectures for GPUs and next gen consoles will presumably use larger and faster unified pools of memory, along with newer compression features for data management, all of this will allow next gen games to run more optimally at higher resolutions, but who said native 4K or the highest settings would be the target?
...
As I keep saying 6 years is a standard console generation, we're 4.5 years into the current one and Sony has even called PS4 Pro their mid-gen upgrade, middle being the main point here, that middle point happened at the end of 2016.
As this article points out there are no specific statements from PS execs stating PS5 won't come out for 3 years or anything like that.
Actually technology available next year will be both cost effective and capable of the perfo...
7nm tapered out at the beginning of this year at TSMC, it's what will be used for basically all future silicon from the major hardware vendors for the foreseeable future.
Fabricators are ready to begin mass production by the end of this year, meaning that the process will be mature enough for Sony to put out the next PlayStation next year.
AMD has a GPU, equivalent to the GTX 1080/ti coming out early 2019, which will retail for $250, CPU tech already ...
Funny how Sony's 2019 to 2020 financial projections are omitted from their recent investor relations event.
Kaz Hirai said similar things back in 2012 before PS4 got announced in early 2013.
He swore blind they were ages away from announcing and launching the successor to PS3.
In reality major games will start releasing for PS5 by then and it will have been on the market since late 2019.
A standard PlayStation generation is...
Rumor has it Japan are working on something big that is more targeted at the west, a game that will appeal to a global audience.
