I didn’t watch Playstation’s State of Play live. Instead I took advantage of their State of Play – February 2026 YouTube playlist. In reverse, for some reason. Unfiltered reactions below.
Kena: Scars of Kosmora
skipped. not interested but nice to see a sequel
Ghost of Yotei: Legends
skipped. inevitable but not something I’ll play
Death Stranding 2: On the Beach PC
skipped. I’ll play this out of obligation in the future
4: Loop
quit after 33 seconds—looks generic
Pragmata
watched out of curiosity. still not seeing much of interest here
Resident Evil Requiem
watched. looks like a good RE I’ll never play. did Leon get buccal fat removal?
Legacy of Kain: Defiance Remastered
watched. not nostalgic for me but I’ll keep an eye out for reviews
Brigandine Abyss
skipped. doesn’t look like it’s for me
Dead or Alive 6 Last Round
skipped. this franchise is still around?
Dead or Alive New Project
skipped. the thumbnail made me laugh
Control Resonant
watched. looks good. 7/10 floor.
Crimson Moon
watched. looks generic
Beast of Reincarnation
quit after a minute and a half. made me contemplate how deep FromSoftware’s influence on gaming goes
Neva: Prologue
watched. nice art style
Yakoh Shinobi Ops
watched but spent the entire time trying to remember the name of Shadow Tactics and the pirate themed one that same studio did before it
Project Windless
watched. Black Myth Wukong coded. the rooster man looks cool
Star Wars: Galactic Racer
watched. hope it’s good—racing is a dying genre
007 First Light
watched. from a Hitman fan: please don’t fuck this up
Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol 2
watched but indifferent. MGS4 freed from PS3 is a big deal to a lot of people though
Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse
watched. said “oh shit” when I saw Motion Twin. not a Castlevania guy but will pay attention
Silent Hill: Townfall
watched. said “whoa” when I realized it’s first person. looks promising—will pay attention
Rev. Noir
quit at 28 seconds but knew it wasn’t for me when the breathy narration started at 7 seconds
Untitled John Wick Game
watched. top 5 least exciting trailer possible for a John Wick video game
Marathon
watched. wtf? is this going to be good? in love with the art direction either way
Big Walk
watched. looks cool but I don’t have friends
Saros
watched. looks a lot like Returnal. I was already interested
Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls
watched. looks flashy. was lukewarm on demo gameplay
God of War Trilogy Remake
watched. just an announcement. nothing to see here
God of War Sons of Sparta
watched. no one ever expects a side scroller prequel. Santa Monica Studio is keeping busy
Overall grade: B
