Everything We Know About PlayStation State of Play June 2025

Rumors of a New Resident Evil Game Ignite Days Before State of Play

Rumors surrounding the Resident Evil franchise have been heating up, reaching a fever pitch with the announcement of PlayStation's June 2025 State of Play. Speculation about a new entry in Capcom's legendary survival horror series began circulating last week, with notable leaker Dusk Golem suggesting a "90% chance" of an imminent reveal.

This has sparked a wave of fan theories across online communities, with discussions ranging from potential new protagonists and settings to the revival of long-dormant spin-off titles. Many are also hoping for a continuation of the successful remake series.

The timing suggests these rumors may have substance. A major IP reveal would follow the pattern set in June 2022 when Capcom debuted the Resident Evil 4 remake during a State of Play. With Summer Game Fest on the horizon and major industry players competing for attention, this could be PlayStation's key move to dominate the news cycle.

Subtle Clues Hint at a Potential Final Fantasy Tactics Remake

Final Fantasy Tactics fans have cause for optimism. Hints of a potential remake for the beloved 1997 strategy RPG have emerged from intriguing social media activity by developers and insiders ahead of the June 2025 State of Play.

The speculation ignited when Yasumi Matsuno, the original game's director, retweeted PlayStation Japan's State of Play announcement. Although the retweet was later deleted, archived screenshots quickly spread, renewing hope within the fanbase.

The intrigue deepened as several Square Enix employees, including a senior manager and regional representatives, enthusiastically shared the announcement with animated reactions, hinting at behind-the-scenes developments.

Adding significant credibility, Bloomberg's well-connected journalist Jason Schreier stirred conversation with two pointed posts. He first praised Final Fantasy Tactics as "one of the greatest games ever made," followed shortly by the single, suggestive word: "Remaster."

While official confirmation is still pending, the growing evidence is compelling. If Square Enix is indeed planning a return to the world of Ivalice, fans may soon witness the long-awaited revival they have hoped for.

Updates for PlayStation's Major Upcoming Titles Are Highly Anticipated

Beyond the rumors of surprise announcements, there is strong anticipation for the June 2025 State of Play to provide substantial updates on several major, already-announced PlayStation titles.

High on the list are Gears of War: Reloaded and Ghost of Yōtei—both revealed with great fanfare but lacking detailed gameplay showcases or follow-up trailers since their initial announcements. Fans are eager for a comprehensive look at what these games will offer.

Other notable titles have been quiet for even longer. Marvel's Wolverine, announced to much excitement, has remained under wraps as other Marvel projects have progressed. Similarly, Judas, the mysterious narrative shooter from BioShock creator Ken Levine, has been silent since missing its previously targeted March 2025 release window.

What is PlayStation State of Play?

PlayStation State of Play is Sony's recurring digital showcase, providing updates on upcoming and recent games, hardware, and other PlayStation news. Similar to Nintendo Direct or Xbox Developer Direct, these pre-recorded online events feature game trailers, developer interviews, and occasional surprise reveals.

State of Play events do not follow a fixed schedule. Sony hosts them multiple times throughout the year, depending on the volume of significant news to share with the gaming community, covering first-party titles, indie games, and other major announcements.
