Well, as per usual, the leaks were largely on point and the new LEGO PlayStation is now official. During today’s PS5 State of Play game showcase, we got our first official look, details, and an official trailer for the upcoming LEGO PlayStation 1 console build. 

We are taking a short break this morning from this week’s massive Labor Day sales at Amazon and Best Buy to dive into the September State of Play. While we are still awaiting news on the potential Nintendo Direct, Sony is going live this morning at 9 a.m. ET for what sounds like a lengthy double feature State of Play event. 

Update 9/1: The PlayStation PULSE Elevate wireless speakers are now up for pre-order at Best Buy and Amazon. 

Nearly a year ago now, Sony official unveiled the all-new Pulse Elevate – its “first wireless gaming speakers” for PS5, PC, Mac, and PlayStation Portal. And today it is finally revealing the release date and pre-order launch. 

Sony has now taken to the official PlayStation Blog to give us our very first look at the new Marvel’s Wolverine Limited Edition PS5 Console bundle and accessories. 

PlayStation has officially announced that it will stop producing physical games discs, and some folks are not happy about it. And while this move isn’t expected to happen for over a year from now, almost all physical games on the official PlayStation Store are already out of stock. 

Just after the reveal of the God of War Laufey release date, today’s game deals roundup is featuring the ongoing PlayStation 5 physical game deals with a few particularly notable new offers. Alongside a solid $100 off the Ghost of Yotei – Collector’s Edition and the DEATH STRANDING 2: ON THE BEACH – Collector’s Edition, Amazon is also offering its best price ever on Saros down at $49.99 shipped. Regularly $70, this is just shy if 30% off, the lowest we have ever tracked on Amazon since release, and the best price we can find. These deals also join a host of ongoing physical PS5 game deals at Amazon right here, and the next phase of the PS5 summer game sale on PlayStation Store.

It has been a mixed bag as of late for PlayStation fans – PS Plus prices went up and Sony just announced it has plans to stop selling physical game discs, but we did also just get GTA VI pre-orders and now, the July PlayStation Plus Monthly Games have been announced. 

The summer PlayStation State of Play showcase goes live today. We get more than a few State of Play broadcasts per year, but none quite as big as the big June show, and it all starts very soon. 

Sony officially announced the 2026 Days of Play Sale yesterday, just as we expected, and everything is going live today.

It is that time of year when the big game publishers start to announce their massive summer game showcases, and Sony has just penciled itself in with the next PlayStation State of Play. 

The barrage of price hikes continue, and just after Nintendo announced the price of Switch 2 was going up, as well as Switch Online in select regions, Sony is now following suite with PlayStation Plus. 

Update: PS5 hardware is scheduled to jump up in price at some point today.

Last week Sony announced sweeping and particularly significant upcoming price hikes across the current-generation PlayStation hardware – PS5 is about to get a whole lot more expensive. Starting this Thursday PS5, PS5 Digital Edition, and PS5 Pro are going to be $100 and $150 more expensive and you might want to score one now before that happens. 

It’s not over yet folks. Not that anyone really thought it was, but prices on PlayStation hardware are going up…again. Sony has now officially announced price hikes on PS5, PS5 Pro, and PlayStation Portal remote player. 

Alongside the Amazon Big Spring Sale deals, Sony has also launched gigantic Spring PS5 game sale of its own. Now live on the PlayStation Store, the PlayStation Spring Sale is now in full swing with deals on “a vast range of games that include iconic blockbusters, acclaimed classics, and more.” We are talking about up to 75% off here from now through April 22 and when Sony says vast, it means it. Ther are over 5,400 games and DLC add-ons racing from Astro Bot and EA sports titles through to Arc Raiders, Avowed, Elden Ring, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, and far too many t run through right here. You can browse all of the games on this page or on your machine next time you boot it up.

While you might want to just go score the new God of War Sons of Sparta at $29.99 in digital form via the PS Store, there are a host of ongoing deals up for grabs. We are also adding the Meal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater Collector’s Edition down at $89.99 Prime shipped (Reg. $200) in celebration of the MGS Collection Vol. 2 reveal and even more down below. 

PlayStation State of Play: God of War Remake Trilogy, John Wick game, Castlevania, Metal Gear, much more

Earlier this week Sony officially announced when its first major State of Play showcase of 2026 would be, and that day has arrived. Throughout the year we get our fair share of these things, some far less special than others, and while we aren’t sure exactly what’s on the slate this afternoon, all signs point to this being a serious showcase. 

Sony has now taken to the official PlayStation Blog to officially announce the next State of Play game showcase, and it sounds like it’s going to be a big one. 

Alongside the holiday PlayStation 5 Flowering Chaos Bundles with $100 in savings still rolling, Sony has now taken to the official PlayStation Blog to reveal next month’s PlayStation Plus monthly FREE games.
