There Will Be No PlayStation Experience This Year!

Sony will not hold their end-year event in 2018…

In the newest PlayStation Blogcast, Shawn Layden, Sony Interactive Entertainment Worldwide Studios’ chairman, confirmed that the event would not be held as there aren’t enough games that they can show…

PlayStation Experience, we’ve done that the last four years. It began as sort of a celebration of the 20th anniversary of PlayStation. We decided it was time to have a consumer-focused event […] and then we expanded to the next year, and the year after that. It became an excellent place for us to bring news to the fans, to get closer to the new games we’re working on, to some of the stuff we may have announced at E3.

For 2018, I know this is going to be a disappointment to some people, but we decided not to hold PlayStation Experience. The reason behind that is, we don’t have…we have a lot of progress, and now that we have Spider-Man, looking down in 2019 to games like Dreams and Days Gone, but we wouldn’t have enough to bring people altogether in some location in North America to have that event. We don’t want to set expectations high and then not deliver on it. It was a hard decision, but we have determined we will not hold PlayStation Experience.”

The developers are seemingly focusing on the PlayStation 5 by now, which means the PlayStation Experience has to go on a sabbatical…
