A PlayStation Showcase may be planned for September to follow this month's rumored State of Play presentation, according to rumors circulating online.

A few hours ago, Lunatic Ignus, who previously revealed a new Black Myth: Wukong trailer would be shared earlier this month before it actually went live, said on X/Twitter today that a new PlayStation Showcase will be held in September.

While it will be some time until we learn if a new PlayStation Showcase will indeed be held this September, it makes a lot of sense for Sony to hold one that month. Not only is it the month of the Tokyo Game Show, but it would also be the perfect time to reveal the PlayStation 5 Pro and use upcoming games to showcase the power of the new system closer to its launch, which is said to be before the end of the year. Still, no matter how likely it sounds, we should take a showcase coming this September with a grain of salt.

A PlayStation Showcase was long rumored to be planned for May, but according to various insiders, this month's event will only be a State of Play presentation. As Memorial Day is celebrated in the US today, if any presentation will be held before the end of May, it will likely be announced tomorrow.
