How to watch the PlayStation Showcase 2021?

The event will last about 40 minutes so come prepared with a drink and maybe even a little snack. IGN will be carrying the live stream and following up with a Beyond post-show, so make sure to check back here for all of our coverage. As for how to catch the event, here’s where you can watch the PlayStation Showcase stream:

PlayStation Showcase 2021 Predictions and What to Expect

So far, we know to expect updates from PlayStation Studios, as well as updates from developers behind some of the other upcoming PS5 games. After the presentation, expect to hear more from developers featured in the show, so if some of your favorite studios make an appearance, make sure to stick around. The presentation will include games from studios both big and small, so if you’re big on AAAs or have a soft spot for indies, there will be something there for you.

As for what you should not expect, Sony made sure to specify that there will be no news on the PSVR 2, so virtual reality enthusiasts will need to wait to hear more on that.

That’s all the information we were given thus far but if we were to speculate which games we might see, Deathloop, Ghostwire: Tokyo, Five Nights at Freddy’s: Security Breach, Goodbye Volcano High, and Little Devil Inside all seem like good candidates as they are all planned for launch in 2021.

Exclusives like Horizon: Forbidden West and God of War Ragnarok could make an appearance, as well as Solar Ash, Project Athia, Hogwarts Legacy, and Pragmata, which all have a release window in 2022, so they might be on the table as well.

Heavenly Bodies, Jett: The Far Shore, Stray, and Final Fantasy XVI are games with no release window or date yet, so maybe temper your expectations a bit on those.
