Rumors were right
We’ve been expecting that Sony will host another PS5 reveal event sometime in the near future, but we weren’t quite sure when.
In a corporate strategy meeting earlier this month, Sony president and CEO Kenichiro Yoshida stated that we will be seeing the “compelling” PS5 games line-up “soon”, leaving many to speculate about a potential PS5 games reveal event date.
Bloombergrecently reported that a PS5 reveal event was planned for June 3, but did add the caveat that plans could change, given the current circumstances.
WhileVentureBeat’s Jeff Grubb, who spoke to sources under the condition of anonymity, uncovered Sony’s plans to host big PS5 showcase sometime in the first two weeks of June – suggesting a (what we now know to be correct) date of June 4.

It seems this event will only focus on PS5 games, with Grubb claiming the showcase will include both first-party titles and third-party titles from Sony’s trusted partners. So don’t expect any hardware.
Hopefully this will be the PS5 reveal event we’ve been waiting for as, until now, Sony’s eventshave been a bit dull.
