Sony recently announced – at long lest – an hour-long games showcase for the PS5 scheduled for June 4, and according to Sony Interactive Entertainment CEO Jim Ryan from a couple of interviews (spotted by Push Square), that show is going to replicate the adrenaline and excitement that one usually expects to see in an E3 reveal.
“Normally you would be in Los Angeles in some auditorium with 2,000 other people,” Ryan said while speaking with the BBC. “You’d be able to cut the adrenaline and the testosterone with a knife. We’ve got to find a way to do that and give the community little bit of a jolt. When you watch the show next week, I think you’ll see that we’ve been able to do that.”
He echoed those statements in conversation with GamesIndustry, saying that Sony have set the challenge for themselves to get people just as excited with the upcoming showcase as they would have been in a packed E3 auditorium, or watching a stream of one.
“That’s the challenge I’ve set the teams: try to get that community, the 100 million people – and all of the people who don’t have a PlayStation we’d like to talk to – just as excited as if they were in the E3 auditorium, or if they were watching the stream,” he said.
Recent reports have also fallen very much in line with this, stating that Sony have delayed a PS5 reveal event on multiple occasions in a bid to ensure that whenever it does happen, it’s “very, very professional.”
