Speculation around a new Resident Evil title intensified in the days leading up to the June 2025 State of Play. Known leaker Dusk Golem fueled anticipation by stating there’s a “90% chance” Capcom is preparing to unveil a new entry in the legendary survival horror series. The timing feels deliberate—especially considering Capcom’s history of using PlayStation’s State of Play events for major reveals, such as the Resident Evil 4 Remake announcement in June 2022.
Fans have been abuzz with theories about what the new game could entail: a full remake of a classic entry, a next-gen original title, or even the revival of a dormant spin-off. With the horror genre seeing a resurgence and PlayStation aiming to maintain momentum ahead of Summer Game Fest, a high-impact Resident Evil reveal would be a strategic move to capture global attention.
Hope is rising among strategy RPG enthusiasts that Final Fantasy Tactics, the critically acclaimed 1997 classic, may finally be getting a modern remake. The speculation gained traction when Yasumi Matsuno, the original game’s director, briefly retweeted PlayStation Japan’s announcement of the June 2025 State of Play—an action he later deleted but not before being widely captured and shared.
The intrigue deepened as multiple Square Enix staff members, including senior management and regional representatives from Latin America, engaged with the same post through animated quote retweets, hinting at internal excitement. Adding credibility to the rumors, Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier—renowned for accurate industry leaks—posted, “I’m just saying, Final Fantasy Tactics is one of the greatest games ever made,” followed by a single, suggestive word: “Remaster.”
While no official confirmation has been made, the alignment of insider behavior and cryptic messaging suggests that a revival of the Ivalice saga could be closer than ever.
Beyond surprise reveals, the June 2025 State of Play was anticipated to deliver substantial updates on some of PlayStation’s most talked-about upcoming games.
Leading the pack are Gears of War: Reloaded and Ghost of Yōtei, both of which were announced with fanfare but have since remained under wraps. With no gameplay footage or deep dives released since their reveals, fans are eager for a clearer picture of their development progress and release timelines.
Other long-anticipated titles also remain in the spotlight. Marvel’s Wolverine, revealed with significant hype, has seen little follow-up as other Marvel projects took precedence. Similarly, Judas—the narrative-driven shooter from BioShock creator Ken Levine—has gone quiet after missing its planned March 2025 release window. A return to these projects during the State of Play would reassure fans that they’re still on track.
PlayStation State of Play is Sony’s official digital showcase series designed to highlight new announcements, game updates, and platform news. Similar in format to Nintendo Direct and Xbox Developer Direct, these events are pre-recorded and streamed globally via YouTube and Twitch.
Each State of Play features a mix of trailers, developer commentary, and exclusive reveals—spanning first-party titles, indie gems, and third-party collaborations. While there’s no fixed schedule, Sony hosts these events multiple times a year whenever there’s significant news to share, making them a key touchpoint for the PlayStation community.
