Well there it is, the long-rumoured remaster of Zero Dawn arrives on PS5 and PC on October 31st, with a $10 upgrade path available for owners of the original game:

Chroma Collection of controllers are plates announced during the State of Play: Damn, the Teal one is a while off @Ike! Kind of wild to announce these, have then up for pre-orders and have the first two colours all happen in a similar timeframe to the 30th anniversary collection announced just last week. We also got another PS5 Pro sizzle reel with some gameplay footage of some other games:

This is going to make a beautiful cover: First word from Sucker Punch on the game has just dropped in the PS Blog, written up by none other than Andrew Goldfarb, formerly of IGN! Some beautiful shots of the game shared in that blog post, too. To grab some details of note: • set over 300 years after the events of Ghost of Tsushima, Sucker Punch are focusing on the "Ghost" rather than picking up with Jin Sakai. • located in the lands surrounding Mount Yōtei in Ezo, or what is known today in Japan as Hokkaido. • this area was outside the law of Japan in 1603, "a far cry from the organized samurai clans who lived in Tsushima." • built from the ground up for PS5. • new mechanics, gameplay improvements, new weapons. I was already thinking of replacing Ghost of Tsushima next year, but with this one the way, I guess it's all but locked in. Being set in Hokkaido and the snowy region of Japan? This has Fall 2025 written all over it, I feel. Can't wait

I won't lie I blacked out after seeing the white one I was asking for So let me just watch it back and I'll get back to you UPDATE: Alright thanks @Ike I guess I'm getting both

Yeah, I need to tally it up So we got • Astro DLC I've been begging for more details on, still waiting on that release date • Lunar Remastered Collection • Fantasian release date • Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 1 & 2 Remastered • Monster Hunter Wilds release date • Dino Crisis and Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain coming to PS+ Classics • Ghost of Yōtei On top of that we got the Palworld shadow drop which is huge - even more so with Nintendo's lawsuit having just been announced - I kind of dig Archeage Chronicles, and if it's fully multiplayer so I can finally convince my friends to play a Souls game with me I'm totally in, and I want that white DualSense because I saw it in Astro and loved it. The Last of Us Part I on PS+ now makes sense - 2 years since launch, somehow, already - and some cool games in PS+ Essentials this month, want to give Dead Space a look (perfectly timed for Halloween) and WWE 2K24 is one me and my friends have been waiting for to land on the service. Let's see, looking back at my list... On top of that, Lunar to me takes that JRPG slot I was hoping Final Fantasy or Dragon Quest would take with just how big of a deal that is, I was convinced I wouldn't be able to play those games with how ridiculous the resale prices of the PS1 versions of the games are, before even mentioning that they're coming out over here for the first time. I feel like Michael Huber right now, I won't lie. Nailed the LEGO Horizon date, got the Tsushima sequel and Astro Bot DLC details in the first State of Play I ask for them specifically, and that dazzling white DualSense I wanted after seeing it in Astro Bot. I knew they'd make that a thing! That's a 9/10 for me, and as someone who really, really sets the bar high for higher scores when it comes to events – this was just kind of everything I think it needed to be for PlayStation right now. I think a second PlayStation Studios bomb being dropped is what would have pushed it higher. Put us in our place with Yōtei, didn't bring Days Gone Remastered, hell they didn't even show the Until Dawn Remake did they?! Which is wild because that's just a few weeks away! They knew the upper limit on first-party remasters was one, and they made the right decision showing only Horizon I think.

Haha yep, those sneaky bastards totally got me I love a good takeout, I remembered Tsushima was 1274 when we saw "1603" and thought it was Rise of Ronin DLC. So that was a total rollercoaster. I need to tally it up but that was the best State of Play in A WHILE

The sequel to Ghost of Tsushima has arrived! This trailer was one hell of a rollercoaster. I'm hyped as hell for this. Tsushima is one of my favourite open world games. Roll on 2025

WAIT IT IS WTF

FFS JUST SAW THE YEAR WHY RISE OF RONIN WHYYYYYY

IS THIS TSUSHIMA 2 OH MY GODDDDDD

WAIT, IS THAT THE ALL-WHITE CONTROLLER FROM ASTRO I SAID I WANTED?! WHAT IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW???

Pretty fantastic update on PS+ during the State of Play. Monthly games are Doki Doki Literature Club, Dead Space remake, and WWE 2K24! Dino Crisis and Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain coming this year as Classics. And The Last of Us Part I this Thursday for Outbreak Day. Part I is a very easy Plat for anyone who can stomach another run through the game, by the way, especially with some smart use of Game Help and trophy tracking, as there aren't any difficulty-related trophies You know, besides the difficulty of sight, because all of the damn onions people start randomly chopping when you play the game

Wait, what?! Did they just say November 14th for Lego Horizon?! WHAAAAAAAAAAT

Same day as Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii

The Hunt continues on Feb 28th!

THEY DID IT! FEB 28TH! THEY CAUGHT ME WITH THAT EDIT YOU BASTARDS

Come on Wilds, give me a release date already...

So what you're saying is Koizumi is about to walk in wearing Deacon's hat from Days Gone?

So, uh, guess I didn't think this was important enough for its own thread last SoP, but is now?

Fortnite got a DualSense Hwat

Are you even a livestream if there isn't a farming sim at this point?

As foretold by the Comic Con and leaks of old! Or, rather, earlier today!

Yooooooooo Hitman PSVR2?! That's so cool

How is it still going? NO MEANS NO, I DID NOT CONSENT TO THIS, STOOOOOOP

Look, I know Dragon Age has its fans But how many trailers does this game need?!
