Expected Games at PlayStation's May Showcase
Silent Hill 2 Remake
The highly anticipated Silent Hill 2 remake by Bloober Team is a strong contender for the spotlight at the rumored PlayStation event next month. Leaked promotional material and an ESRB rating surfacing online suggest that the game's release is imminent, aligning with hints dropped by reputable insider Jeff Grubb, hinting at a release date announcement for Silent Hill 2 in May.
Ghost of Tsushima 2
Following the success of Sucker Punch's 2020 hit Ghost of Tsushima, speculations about a sequel, Ghost of Tsushima 2, have emerged. Leaker Silknigth hints at an upcoming reveal of the sequel in the following months, possibly setting the stage for a reveal at the May PlayStation event. Although a release before April 2025 seems unlikely, fans are eager to discover what Sucker Punch has in store for this anticipated sequel.
Concord
Initially unveiled at the PlayStation Showcase 2023, Concord by Firewalk Studios is a PvP multiplayer FPS that might grace the rumored May PlayStation Showcase. With an initial 2024 release timeframe and scarce updates since its announcement, this game could be primed for a grand reintroduction at this year's event.
Bungie's Marathon
Bungie's upcoming sci-fi extraction shooter, Marathon, made an appearance at last year's PlayStation Showcase but has since remained shrouded in mystery. As a significant title from the creators of Destiny 2, the rumored May event could be the perfect platform to unveil this game to the eager audience.
Horizon Multiplayer Game
With the success of Horizon Zero Dawn and Horizon Forbidden West, Guerrilla Games is rumored to be working on a multiplayer, live-service game for the franchise, as suggested by job listings. The lack of an official announcement and minimal details make May a potential window for Sony to introduce this intriguing project to the world.
A New Astro Bot Game
Rumors hint at a new Astro Bot game making an appearance at the PlayStation event, as suggested by The Snitch. While the original Astro Bot Rescue Mission was a PlayStation VR title and Astro's Playroom showcased the DualSense features on PS5 launch, fans speculate on a comprehensive Astro Bot 3D platformer to revive the essence of classic mascot 3D platformers.
