All the announcements made during the latest PlayStation State of Play presentation.
PlayStation held their latest State of Play presentation today, Sept. 24. There were quite a few things announced, so let’s jump into it.
First, let’s get the most important thing out of the way. The Last of Us Part II finally has a release date. It’s been a long time coming, but we now know the game will release on Feb. 21, 2020.
