How to Catch Sony's September 2026 State of Play Live

Are you ready for some fresh PlayStation news? Sony has just announced not one, but two State of Play streams for September 3, 2026. Whether you're a fan of big-budget exclusives or indie gems, you won't want to miss out. Here's everything you need to know to tune in.

First things first: mark your calendars for September 3. Sony is splitting the event into two separate broadcasts, so you'll have double the reason to clear your schedule. The first stream kicks off at 2 PM PT / 5 PM ET, while the second one follows at 3 PM PT / 6 PM ET. If you're in the UK, that's 10 PM and 11 PM BST, and for our friends in Europe, it's 11 PM and midnight CEST.

Where can you watch? The easiest way is to head over to the official PlayStation YouTube channel or Twitch channel. Both streams will be live there, so you can pick your favorite platform. If you miss the live action, don't worry – they'll be available for replay shortly after, but watching live means you can join the chat and share the excitement with fellow gamers.

Now, what can you expect? Sony hasn't spilled the beans on specific games, but given the timing, you can bet on updates for upcoming PS5 titles and maybe a few surprises. Historically, State of Play has been the go-to spot for reveals, deep dives, and release date announcements. With two streams, there's a good chance they'll split the content – perhaps one focusing on first-party blockbusters and the other on third-party or indie games.

This is a perfect opportunity to catch up on any announcements you might have missed over the summer. Plus, with the holiday season just around the corner, publishers often save their biggest reveals for events like this. So, whether you're hoping for a new God of War trailer or a fresh IP, this could be your moment.

To make sure you don't miss a second, set a reminder on your phone or use YouTube's 'Notify Me' feature. Also, consider following PlayStation's social media accounts for any last-minute updates or pre-show teasers. And if you're planning to watch with friends, why not set up a watch party? It's always more fun to speculate together.
