IGN LIVE PRESENTS: SONY PRESS CONFERENCE - GAMESCOM 2014
SONY TO UNVEIL NEW PS4 GAMES AT TGS 2014, SAYS BOSS
Titles were going to be announced at Gamescom.
Sony plans to announce new titles during its PlayStation press conference at the Tokyo Game Show 2014, according to a Japanese-language Famitsu interview with Sony Worldwide Studios president Shuhei Yoshida.
“But to be honest, in selecting the games we wanted to introduce, we realized it wasn’t possible to fit everything into the frame of the conference, so unfortunately there were some games we couldn’t introduce this time,” Yoshida said, translated by Gematsu, referring to Sony’s Gamescom 2014 press conference (below).
Yoshida added that game announcements cut from the Gamescom press conference, due to the amount of content Sony had to showcase, will be shown during its TGS keynote. PlayStation 4-related game announcements will be a focus for Sony at TGS this year, but Sony is still determining whether or not to exhibit its virtual reality headset Project Morpheus at the show.
More content created by Japanese developers is needed for the console to gain ground in the Japanese marketplace, said Yoshida, adding that Sony is working with publishers to increase the PlayStation 4 user base.
TGS 2014 runs from September 18-21 at the Makuhari Messe Convention Centre, Chiba, Japan. We will be in attendance to bring you all the news and videos.
