Sony might hold a State of Play event in February 2022

In addition to Henderson, AccountNGT also hints at a PlayStation event that's coming early this year. Although he didn't say a particular month, unlike Henderson, holding one in February does line up with Sony's schedule. It's worth remembering that Sony also held a State of Play event back in February 2021, which was a pretty big deal as well.

If Sony intends to stick to a consistent schedule, a February 2022 State of Play would make sense. What else does Sony have planned for 2022? Fans are also hoping that Sony can help solve the PS5's shortage issues this year.

2021 was a relatively mellow year for Sony as far as exclusives. This isn't to say that Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, Deathloop, and Returnal, weren't great games - two of them even got nominated for GOTY 2021 - but PS5 owners didn't exactly get a lot of love. From what we know of so far, 2022 is a bit better, but the PS5 library is still a bit thin in the "must-have" department.

Horizon: Forbidden West is set to release in February, but it's available on both the PS4 and the PS5. The same goes for God of War: Ragnarok, which is reportedly due to come out later this year, as well as Gran Turismo 7. Sony needs to throw PS5 owners an exclusive bone or so to speak, especially if the studio wants the PS5 to keep on breaking sales records.

If Sony pushes through with its showcase this February, we're hoping that they at least give audiences a glimpse of Final Fantasy XVI or Final Fantasy VII Remake Part II or maybe even Project Spartacus.
