Sony announces PlayStation showcase, promises ‘sneak peek at the future of PS5’

Sony has announced that it will host a PlayStation showcase on September 9th. The event will begin at 10 AM ET / 1 PM PT and last for 40 minutes. It is being described as a glimpse into the future of PlayStation 5.
Sony may soon release a new PS5 software update, which it has been beta-testing. This update unlocks M.2 SSD compatibility and includes some UI improvements for the PS5 dashboard as well as 3D audio support built-in TV speakers.

Take a look at the future of PS5 with updates from PlayStation Studios, industry-leading developers and more. We hope to see you there @PlayStation September 2, 2021

The showcase will not feature the new PlayStation VR headset. According to reports, the next-generation PSVR was revealed at a developer summit. It connects via one cable to a PS5. The headset features OLED displays with higher resolution (2000 x 2040 pixels each eye) and an improved 110 degree field of view.

Sony promises plenty of PS5 games, from both big and small developers. It is likely that we will get another look at Horizon Forbidden West. This sequel to Horizon Zero Dawn was delayed until February 18th 2022. You might also get updates on GTA V's next-gen patch and final gameplay for the Bethesdas Deathloop PS5 game that launches later in the month.
