Sony Interactive Entertainment, currently riding high on record sales of its PlayStation 4 gaming console wont be hosting its annual press conference or showing up at all during next years massive E3 expo.

The news was buried inside the Entertainment Software Associations announcement of the 2019 show.

This will be the first time in E3s 24-year history that PlayStation will not be attending the event, it is also the second major PlayStation event canceled by the company in recent months.

In September, Shawn Layden, chairman of Sony Interactive Entertainment Worldwide Studios, said the company wouldnt be hosting this years PlayStation Experience citing a lack of games to show.

Now that we have Spiderman out the door, were looking down in 2019 to games like Dreams and Days Gone but we wouldnt have enough to bring people altogether in some location in North America to have that event, Layden said.We dont want to set expectations really high and then not deliver on it.


I guess this is what happens when you announce everything too early.

Nintendo have a digital event and they still attend E3. Sony isn't going at all.

With social media, Youtube, etc... couldn't you do an internet breaking game drop rather than do it at E3 on stage?

Sure.

But considering Sony also cancelled PSX 2018 and don't do anything like Nintendo Directs I think this is more because they've announced everything they're developing for PS4.

They announce things that don't come out for multiple years. They probably have a ton of stuff in development for PS5 which they aren't ready to announce yet.

The hilarious thing about not showing up to E3 at all is that the games they have announced still won't be playable otherwise they could at least show up with some demos.

Are they gonna do a Sony Direct, or do they seriously have nothing good to show? Hopefully they are moving toward making Directs.

E3 feels very outdated now that companies can just do Nintendo Directs that they can polish up so they don't have embarrassing dialog or run into glitches in stage demos.

Real life shows might be exciting for people in the stadium but 99.9% of people are watching from their bedrooms and don't get anything out of stage shows

If the reason they're not turning up because they don't have much to show and they don't want to disappoint why would they do a Sony Direct? Again Nintendo still actually show up at E3. Sony isn't there at all. I'm sure if they were doing something like Nintendo or EA they would have said it today.

The real reason for this will be because the PS5 is coming in 2020.

Well unless these studios have games that are almost ready to go when they got bought out that probably won't really pay off until the next Xbox as well.

Microsoft can probably just hog all of the third party announcements and have a good show.

How the fuck was the Last of Us 2 trailer 'pretentious'? Overall, it didn't impress me very much but pretentious would be the last thing I would describe it.

Microsoft have been delivering quality E3 shows for the past few years now. They'd be crazy not to take advantage of this new found strengths in their next presentation.

I figured we were speaking specifically about the trailer itself. But yeah, that was stupid and unnecessary.

The Last of Us 2 trailer was fine but yeah that whole Church set thing was pretty damn pretentious. They had to waste so much time moving everyone to the new theater and when it began it looked like I was about to watch a bunch of people drink down some poisoned kool-aid. Pointless.

Publishers already make elaborate props and sets for the games on the showfloor. Dunno why they just didn't stick to that.

Microsoft should have a decent enough show. Gears 5 and Tactics gameplay is a given. Maybe Halo Infinite gameplay. Pretty much all of the third party announcements and demos which potentially includes Cyberpunk 2077.

I think we'll at least see some game announcements too. I think they'll be making the most of this opportunity. Maybe they'll reveal those rumored new Fable and Perfect Dark games.

I'm sure Nintendo will finally show Metroid Prime 4.

This. They learned their lesson after getting trounced by PS4 this gen. It's not like Xbone was a huge failure or anything but the lack of exclusives and Japanese games definitely was a huge drag on sales potential alongside the stench of their hastily scrapped anti consumer BS.

Also confirmed there is no off-site event like EA Play

https://www.gameinformer.com/2018/11/14/sony-interactive-entertainment-is-not-attending-e3-in-2019

When asked if Sony would push its event off-site, similar to how Electronic Arts provides a show adjacent to E3, PlayStation senior vice president of communications Jennifer Clark elaborated further saying, "We will not activate or hold a press conference around E3."


Kotaku is also reporting that developers are expecting the PS5 in 2020 and this is related.
