As a seasoned gamer with over three decades of PlayStation fandom under my belt, I can hardly contain my excitement at the prospect of a potential PlayStation event on the horizon! The rumors swirling around December 3, the brand’s 30th anniversary, have me biting my nails in anticipation.


It’s been speculated that a PlayStation event could happen in the near future, according to a trusted source who leaks information from the video game industry. Sony’s last State of Play, during which they announce updates about PlayStation games and consoles, was held on September 24.

Speculations about a PlayStation event happening soon are growing stronger as the date of December 3rd, marking their 30th anniversary, approaches. However, journalist Jeff Grubb shared that he hasn’t received any information about a PlayStation showcase or State of Play for that month. Yet, another industry source has not entirely ruled out the possibility of such an event taking place.

On Twitter, billbil-kun, who calls himself a private detective and writes for Dealabs Magazine, neither confirmed nor dismissed rumors about an upcoming PlayStation event next month. However, a reliable leaker claims in their latest article that Sony may have hinted at a December 3, 2024 event through its Play Has No Limits ad campaign. The ad, recently uploaded to the official PlayStation YouTube channel, includes a screenshot of a digital train schedule with the numbers 03, 12, and 2,024. Previously, Sony has held a December State of Play, but that was back in 2019 when the showcase first started.

Behind the scenes, new versions of PlayStation accessories are being readied as suggested in a tweet from billbil-kun. Some of these secret projects include black versions of the DualSense Edge wireless controller, Pulse Elite wireless headset, and Pulse Explore wireless earphones for the PS5. It’s expected that these new models will be unveiled within a month, with each item priced at $199.99 (DualSense Edge), $149.99 (Pulse Elite headset), and $199.99 (Pulse Explore earphones) once they are released according to billbil-kun’s report.

At the anticipated The Game Awards 2024, scheduled for December 12, numerous announcements are expected. Last year’s event introduced several exciting titles such as “Death Stranding 2: On the Beach,” a highly-anticipated exclusive for the latest PlayStation console, alongside “Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon,” “Hades 2,” and numerous other games.
