Rumor: PlayStation Showcase event is coming before this year's E3.

It's been almost a year and a half since Sony's last PlayStation Showcase event, and in that time, the gaming community is still asking the company to announce a major event that involves reviewing and announcing company-exclusive games. What do you think?

Yesterday's State of Play episode didn't really impress the gaming community, and instead, it frustrated them. The reason is clear and doesn't involve any company exclusives, but it seems Sony is holding back its own, long-missing PlayStation Showcase for later this year, specifically before the start of E3 2023.

Gamesbeat journalist Jeff Grubb said today to reassure Sony fans that this event is definitely coming this year. He confirmed that the event was originally planned for last fall, but the games weren't ready for the show.

The group described the event as a focal point for the second half of the device's life cycle, during which Sony will review what its studios are working on to support the PlayStation 5 in the future.

Some explain this long absence of major PlayStation events as a result of Sony's desire to hide its projects due to its position within Microsoft. Furthermore, it's even said that the company doesn't want competitors to know what it has or what it plans.

The Microsoft-Activision deal likely hit Sony hard, causing it to repeatedly postpone events. Last October, a major event was planned, but it was canceled due to the company's concerns about the deal and its progress.

If Jeff's words are true, we believe we are about to see the event absent for a while, before June of this year, your expectations?
