When & Where To Watch PlayStation's February 2025 State Of Play

After Xbox and Nintendo kicked off the year with showcases and reveals in January, PlayStation is finally joining the party with a February 2025 State of Play. Originally debuting in 2019, State of Play broadcasts are PlayStation's most reliable format for game announcements and updates. Although they vary in length and coverage, the broadcasts come in under an hour and highlight major releases from both internal Sony studios and third parties.

PlayStation currently has some major 2025 titles planned without specific release dates, so the new State of Play might provide updates on games like Ghost of Yotei and Death Stranding 2: On the Beach. Without any details on what coverage to expect, however, it's best to come into the State of Play broadcast with an open mind rather than anticipating one or two specific announcements.

As revealed on the official PlayStation Blog, the February 2025 State of Play will air on Wednesday, February 12. The announcement provides the start time in three common time zones for reference: 2:00 PM PT, 5:00 PM ET, and 11:00 PM CET. In Japan, the broadcast will be in Japanese and air simultaneously at 7:00 AM JST on February 13. Referred to as a "40+ minute show," the State of Play will be on the longer end of PlayStation's broadcasts, which tend to cap out at under 45 minutes.

Official Channels & Co-Streams

The primary official sources to watch the new PlayStation State of Play are the PlayStation YouTube and Twitch channels, both of which should be good options. In typical fashion, the event will likely be co-streamed by some major outlets and shared with reactions from creators, so the official channels won't be the only option. PlayStation provides a warning that copyrighted content could "interfere with co-streams," meaning that any saved archives of streams from other sources might have to cut some music.

Even if one source starts buffering or cutting out, there should be enough options to make streaming the February 2025 State of Play easy. Catching the stream during a workday might be harder, but PlayStation always provides on-demand access to its live streams after the fact. Although it's too early to make a call on just how exciting the State of Play game announcements will be, it will likely be the best way to get a feel for what Sony has planned in 2025, so the State of Play isn't an event that PlayStation fans should miss.
