PlayStation’s State of Play is back, bringing a ton of games. The February State of Play has made some big reveals, including Bend Studio’s Days Gone Remastered, and the release date for several anticipated titles like Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater and Borderlands 4. In addition to these, the showcase featured major new title announcements, including a DLC expansion for Neowiz Games’ hit RPG Lies of P. Let’s go over the five major announcements from the PlayStation State of Play – February 2025.
Major Announcements From February 2025 State of Play
1) Saros
One of the biggest and most ambitious announcements from the February 2025 State of Play is undoubtedly Saros. It is a single-player third-person action game from Housemarque, the studio behind the award-winning Returnal. It is set to launch on PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 5 Pro in 2026. In Saros, you will explore the lost off-world colony of Carcosa. Players will take the role of Arjun Devraj, a powerful Soltari Enforcer performed by Rahul Kohli, known for Midnight Mass and The Fall of the House of Usher.
The game will evolve the satisfying core gameplay of Returnal. It allows players to make permanent upgrades for their weapons and suits, defining its tagline “come back stronger” after every death. An extended gameplay showcase will be released later this year.
2) Tides of Annihilation
Tides of Annihilation, by Eclipse Glow Studio, is another groundbreaking announcement from the showcase. The single-player narrative-driven action RPG features co-op combat. It allows players to summon two spectral Knights of the Round Table as they journey across the shattered London.
Explore two interconnected realms of modern London and the mythical Avalon, as the lone survivor Gwendolyn, and battle colossal knights with a dynamic combat system. The title is in development for PS5. An exclusive Enhanced Mode is being developed for PS5 Pro, offering higher resolution, ray tracing, improved image fidelity, and 60fps.
3) MindsEye
Leslie Benzies’ MindsEye is a tech-driven single-player action thriller. It explores a world where AI and robotics collide with human greed, set in a near-future timeline. The State of Play has revealed the cinematic and gameplay, along with the release window of Summer 2025.
Set in the fictional desert city of Redrock, players take on the role of a former soldier, Jacob Diaz, who has been implanted with a mysterious neural device called ‘MindsEye’. Developed by Build A Rocket Boy, the game features a fluid combat system and thrilling chase sequences, delivering nonstop action both on foot, behind the wheel, and in the air.
4) Directive 8020
Supermassive Games, the studio behind the hit choice-based horror titles Until Dawn and The Quarry, has revealed a new trailer and gameplay details about their upcoming sci-fi horror game, Directive 8020. Set in Supermassive Games’ The Dark Pictures Anthology, the game blends sci-fi exploration with a spine-chilling horror theme, featuring Supermassive’s signature choice-based system.
The narrative-driven horror game takes place aboard the Cassiopeia survey ship, where players must survive against a shape-shifting alien creature, capable of transforming into crewmates. The choices you make will determine your fate and the survival of humanity itself. Directive 8020 is set to launch on October 2 on PS5.
5) Lies of P: Overture
Lies of P: Overture is the DLC expansion to the 2023 hit souls-like RPG, serving as the prequel to the original story.
