This has been a hectic month for Sony. It hit massive highs with the reception of Astro Bot and the reveal of the PlayStation 5 Pro but also saw astronomical lows with the shuttering of Concord and backlash toward the PS5 Pro’s $700 price tag. Now, it’s capping off this month with a new State of Play ahead of Tokyo Game Show 2024.

It will feature over 20 PS5 and PlayStation VR2 games, so PlayStation fans should definitely plan on tuning in. For those planning on doing so, I’ve rounded up all the pertinent information on how to watch and what to expect from the September 2024 State of Play.

What to expect from the September 2024 State of Play

The official description for September 24’s State of Play says it will feature “news and updates on more than 20 upcoming PS5 and PS VR2 games from studios around the world.” On the Sony-published game front, games like Until Dawn’s remake, Lego Horizon Adventures, and Death Stranding 2: On The Beach may appear here. Lego Horizon Adventures, in particular, is supposed to launch this year but doesn’t have a release date, so that’s a very likely announcement.

On the leaks and rumors front, an ESRB listing for Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered was spotted recently, so it may show up here. There are bound to be some unpredictable third-party surprises for PS5 and PSVR2 here as well, so this State of Play is shaping up to be quite exciting. Hopefully, after watching this State of Play, we will have a very clear idea of what to expect on Sony’s platforms throughout fall 2024 and early 2025.

All Resident Evil games in order, by release date and chronologically

There are almost no survival horror games that last for more than few entries, let alone ones that have persisted for decades like Resident Evil. This series had humble beginnings as a small horror experience set in a single mansion to explore, solve puzzles, and fight against the clunky tank controls and fixed camera angles. Since then, the series has evolved and grown into one of the most recognizable Capcom IPs there is, with new entries and amazing remakes coming out almost every year.

Currently, the highest-numbered Resident Evil game is 8, aka Village, but you would be wildly off if you thought there were only eight entries to consider when looking to complete the series. Right from the start, Resident Evil has loved expanding its world with a massive cast of characters and new protagonists from game to game. Resident Evil 7 was a soft reboot for the series, but there is still a cannon order to the events surrounding Umbrella, the various zombie viruses, and all our favorite heroes like Chris and Leon.

Kunitsu-Gami devs break down the secret to Capcom’s new success
Soh, Yoshiro, and Villagers prepare for battle in Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess.

The video game industry is in a period of contraction. Companies like Bungie are canceling games and laying off developers so they can home in and focus on one or two big titles. Why invest in smaller, riskier projects when making larger games in well-known franchises will yield greater returns? Capcom, on the other hand, is committed to doing both.

"I believe that the experience with a series or remake is important, but the experience of a new IP is also important," Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess Director Shuichi Kawata told me in an email interview following the release of one of Capcom's more experimental new games yet.

Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster is more like Dead Space’s remake than Resident Evil 4’s
Frank talks to Jessica in Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster.

Don't let Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster's name fool you; this is essentially a full-on remake of Capcom's classic zombie game. While the narrative and core gameplay loop are the same, Dead Rising has seen a complete visual overhaul, as well as a few gameplay tweaks to make it more enjoyable to play. It's the same great game you remember, but it now just feels like something that could be released in 2024 rather than 2006. After going hands-on with Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster, it's clear that this game is less like the remake treatment Capcom gave Resident Evil 4 last year and more like the one EA gave Dead Space. It's an extremely faithful modern upgrade for a horror classic that still holds up today.
