This just in: Sony has officially acquired Square Enix - not!
Although a Square Enix acquisition would certainly fit in with what's happening lately with Microsoft buying Activision-Blizzard and Sony countering with a Bungie buyout, Square Enix probably isn't going to go under PlayStation Studios' massive umbrella anytime soon. But, the prominent Japanese gaming publishers should play a major role in Sony's upcoming State of Play event.
For the past several weeks, several insiders and sources have "confirmed" that Sony is just waiting for the perfect timing to announce its latest showcase in light of the recent events concerning Russia and Ukraine.
According to an official blog post, the upcoming Sony broadcast will offer "new reveals and eye-catching updates for PS5 and PS4 articles." Specifically, Sony singled out the company's "beloved Japanese publishers".
