Concord game ps5

Concord is currently one of the only confirmed 2024 PS5 exclusives left to launch later this year. It’s coming out of Firewalk Studios, a new developer comprised of Destiny veterans, which bodes well for this competitive FPS.

We’ve really not seen much of the game yet, with the game announced and last seen at last year’s May State of Play. If it is still set to launch this year, we’re going to need some more info and a look at some gameplay.

2024-05-30T18:12:06.290ZHere’s the reveal so you can catch up:We’re excited to introduce you to Concord: our new PVP multiplayer FPS coming to @PlayStation 5 and PC in 2024.

2024-05-30T18:38:47.174Z(Image credit: Paradox Intertactive)Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 seems a likely participant in today’s State of Play. The retooled vampire RPG from developer The Chinese Room and publisher Paradox Interactive currently only has a nebulous “Fall 2024” release window. Adding fuel to the possible fire is the fact that the game has been regularly releasing new little tidbits about the various clans in the game as of late. This seems like the perfect opportunity to announce a release date for the multiplatform game.

2024-05-30T18:50:23.434Z(Image credit: Konami)Another likely suspect for today is the Silent Hill 2 remake from Bloober Team. Not only is it coming to PS5 this year, and not only does it not currently have a definite release date, but the Konami franchisealsohappens tohave its own showcase of sorts set for later todayafter the PlayStation State of Play. Sure, the timing could theoretically be a coincidence, but that’d be an extremely coincidental one.

2024-05-30T19:03:21.641Z(Image credit: Haven Studios)When we start getting into “what else could possibly show up” territory, things get a bit wilder. For example, we’ve not really heard much about Fairgames, the Payday-like shooter from Jade Raymond and Haven Games, since it wasfirst revealed during a PlayStation Showcase around this time last year. Seems we’re due for an update, right?

2024-05-30T19:33:08.368Z(Image credit: SIE/Marvel)Speaking of titles we’ve not heard much about, Marvel’s Wolverine from Insomniac Games is also still somewhere on the horizon. Abunch of leaked information came out about the game late last year, but genuine news straight from the source has been minimal since being first announced in 2021. Given the impending release of the Deadpool & Wolverine movie in July, it feels like now’s the perfect time to pull back the curtain a bit more.

2024-05-30T19:45:53.755Z(Image credit: Sony)As usual, there’s some fairly confident scuttlebutt making the rounds ahead of the PlayStation State of Play too. As we notedwhen the State of Play was announced, some kind of new Astro Bot game and a Lego title set in the Horizon universe have been the subject of constant rumors the past several weeks. What either of those exactly looks like remains to be seen. But perhaps both make an appearance today?

Astro Bot Rescue Mission

As usual, there’s some fairly confident scuttlebutt making the rounds ahead of the PlayStation State of Play too. As we notedwhen the State of Play was announced, some kind of new Astro Bot game and a Lego title set in the Horizon universe have been the subject of constant rumors the past several weeks. What either of those exactly looks like remains to be seen. But perhaps both make an appearance today?

2024-05-30T20:17:32.141Z(Image credit: Bungie)There is at least one extreme gimme here: it would be wild if Destiny 2’s The Final Shape didn’t make some kind of appearance. Yes, Bungie also has Marathon cooking somewhere in the background, but the upcoming expansion is set to release next week on June 4. That is… very, very soon.The timing ofthe awkward leak of The Final Shape todayis also mighty suspicious. But even if that has nothing to do with anything else, it does seem like a good opportunity to show even more of what looks to be a rollicking good time. That is, at leastaccording to our lengthy hands-on preview.

2024-05-30T20:39:47.179Z(Image credit: Bungie)…not that I would mind if Bungiedidin fact say something about Marathon, the upcoming return of the developer’s classic franchise. The upcoming sci-fi PvP extraction shooter was revealed at the PlayStation Showcase around this time last year, and not much has really been said of it since then. It’d be nice to see more, but The Final Shape feels like a more likely suspect.

It can be whenever you like! But it would be mighty fine of you to say it during the State of Play. (And if we’re keen on wishful thinking, whatever the next Mass Effect game is would be lovely to see too.)

2024-05-30T21:18:07.548Z(Image credit: Kojima Productions)If Sony is focused on some PlayStation Studios games, then there’s a potential thatDeath Stranding 2: On the Beach- although I still can’t believe that’s the real title. However, if Sony is only showcasing games coming before the end of the year, that does rule out Sam Porter Bridges' return as it’s scheduled to launch in 2025.

2024-05-30T21:25:34.191Z(Image credit: Capcom)The game that always lurks in the back of my mind is Pragmata from Capcom. Originally revealed way back in the mires of 2020, we’ve barely seen anything of it since, apart from Capcom delaying the game indefinitely at its own showcase last year. It’s essentially Capcom’s take on the dad game, but with more telekentic powers and mechanical enemies that you’ll find in God of War or The Last of Us.
