SONY’S PlayStation 2021 showcase is scheduled for later today to give fans and console a glimpse of what it has in store for this year and beyond.
The event will include a look at upcoming PS5 games, but if you’re expecting a PSVR 2 update, don’t get your hopes up.

PlayStation Showcase 2021 – when is it?
The PlayStation Showcase 2021 is set for Thursday, September 9 at 1pm PT / 4pm ET / 9pm BST / 10pm CEST.
European fans will be pleased at the time slot, as it won’t be too late in the evening – which is often the case with US-based events.
The show will run around 40 minutes long so you’ll be tucked up in bed by a reasonable hour.

PlayStation Showcase 2021 – what to expect?
In its blog post about the event, Sony specifically points out that there will be no PSVR 2 news.
“One thing to note: PlayStation’s next generation of VR won’t make an appearance this time. But there will still be plenty of great PS5 games from developers large and small,” it says.
What we can expect is “a look into the future of PS5” which includes updates from PlayStation Studios.
Over the years, it’s acquired Uncharted developer Naughty Dog, Horizon Zero Dawn’s Guerrilla Games, Ratchet & Clank’s Insomniac Games, and more recently, Housemarque – the studio behind PS5 exclusive Returnal.
We’re hoping to get more details on God of War: Ragnarok, Gran Turismo 7, and Horizon Forbidden West.
It won’t just be limited to AAA blockbusters; the blog post says there’ll be “plenty of great PS5 games from developers large and small.”
So be sure to tune in if you want to see what’s in store for the PS5 as we gear up for the holiday season and beyond.
