Every Game Rumored or Leaked for This Week’s State of Play

Sony has announced its next State of Play event will be held on Thursday, February 12, 2026. This showcase is expected to be significantly longer than previous ones—lasting over an hour with numerous announcements and updates. Past State of Play events typically ran for 30-40 minutes, so Sony will have a lot of time to reveal its 2026 game lineup.

Sony hasn’t officially announced which games will be featured in the next State of Play, and they probably won’t reveal anything beforehand. They’ve said the presentation will include news, gameplay updates, and announcements from studios worldwide, covering games from PlayStation Studios, independent developers, and other companies. Right now, any specific game mentions are based on leaks and rumors, and while there have been a lot of these, some are more credible than others.

Games That Could Appear During the February 2026 State of Play

Saros
Marvel’s Wolverine
Devil May Cry 6
God of War Spin-Off
Resident Evil Requiem

According to reliable insider Shinobi602, it’s likely that Cory Barlog and Santa Monica Studio are working on a new game, though they haven’t confirmed it yet.

Saros (Very Likely to Appear)

Housemarque, the team behind Returnal, is expected to showcase their upcoming action game, Saros, at February’s State of Play. With a release date of April 30, 2026, it’s highly probable the game will be featured, not based on rumors, but simply because it’s launching soon. Considering it was already shown at a State of Play last September, we can anticipate a final marketing push this week, potentially including a detailed look at gameplay or a new trailer – a strategy Sony has used for comparable titles.

Even though there haven’t been any leaks, many news sites covering the upcoming State of Play—including The Verge and Vice—are predicting that Saros will be featured. Considering that the game is being made by Housemarque, a studio owned by PlayStation Studios, and published by Sony, it’s almost certain to be shown, especially with its release date getting closer.

Marvel’s Wolverine (Possible Due to a Recent Leak)

As a huge Marvel’s Wolverine fan, I’m getting really excited about the upcoming State of Play! There’s been a leak that the game might finally be shown off there, and it’s got me hoping we’ll see a release date. Apparently, the Latin American PlayStation Store briefly listed a Q3 2026 release window, which is amazing! Since Wolverine is being made by Insomniac – a first-party PlayStation studio like the team behind Saros – it makes total sense they’d show it at State of Play. But that leaked release window? That really makes me think we’re about to get some official news and maybe even a trailer!

Both Marvel’s Wolverine and Saros were revealed at last September’s State of Play, with Wolverine initially slated for a Fall 2026 release. However, a recent leak suggests Marvel’s Wolverine might actually launch between July and September 2026 – earlier than the previously announced timeframe of late September to December. This potential earlier release makes it even more likely that we’ll see a major update for Marvel’s Wolverine at the next State of Play event.

Devil May Cry 6 (Leaked, But Not From a Vetted Source)

Rumors are circulating that Devil May Cry 6 might be revealed at the upcoming State of Play event. The information comes from a user on X (formerly Twitter), @TripleSevven_, who shared it on a forum called XCancel. Another user on Reddit, Solid-Entertainer-39, posted about the leak, noting that @TripleSevven_ has been reliable in the past, but cautioned everyone to remain skeptical until an official announcement.

Many people commenting on the post doubt the leak’s authenticity, as most have never heard of the source. However, even if the leak isn’t true, a reveal of Devil May Cry 6 at the upcoming State of Play is still possible. Devil May Cry is a very popular series for Capcom, and the company often announces major games during Sony events. Plus, with the 25th anniversary of Devil May Cry coming up in August 2026, it would make sense to reveal a new game now, although there’s been no official confirmation.

God of War 2.5D Metroidvania Spin-off (Leaked From Credible Insiders Last Year)

A new God of War game, described as a 2.5D action-adventure title similar to the Metroidvania style, might be revealed at this week’s State of Play. Rumors about this spin-off began circulating last year, with reliable gaming sources like Tom Henderson and Jeff Grubb hinting at its existence. Henderson first mentioned hearing talk of the game in June 2025, and Grubb confirmed the information. While many expected an announcement at a State of Play around that time, it never happened.

Both Henderson and Grubb have indicated that a *God of Warstyle Metroidvania game was being considered last year, and with no official announcement yet, many believe the upcoming State of Play presentation might finally reveal it. Henderson also noted the game is now smaller in scope than originally anticipated, suggesting development could be nearing completion. While its appearance at the showcase isn’t guaranteed, several media sources are still predicting it could be unveiled this week.

Resident Evil Requiem Demo Announcement (Based on Capcom History and Speculation)

There’s a good chance we might see Resident Evil Requiem at this week’s State of Play. This is based on the game’s planned release date, Capcom’s past habits, and recent speculation. A Reddit user pointed out that Capcom often releases demos on Fridays two weeks before a game launches. They did this with the remakes of Resident Evil 2, 3, and 4. With Requiem scheduled for February 27, 2026, that would mean a demo could arrive on Friday, February 13th. Releasing a demo on Friday the 13th would also fit the game’s horror theme, as the date is widely associated with bad luck and superstition.

Even if we don’t see a playable demo for Resident Evil Requiem at this week’s State of Play, its upcoming release means there’s still a good chance we’ll get some kind of new promotion during the event. This could be a demo announcement, or even just another short trailer. Resident Evil Requiem is launching soon, which is similar to how other games have been featured in past State of Play presentations, making it a likely possibility among all the rumors.

The next State of Play event takes place on Thursday, February 12 at 2 PM PT, 5 PM ET, and 11 PM CET.
