Sony Details Press Conference Plans for Paris Games Week

Paris Games Week kicks off in… well… Paris, France this October, and the PlayStation manufacturer will be holding a media briefing at the expo.

Sony has started sending out invites to select members of the press, detailing its "PlayStation Media Preview," which will air on Jeux Video on October 27 at 5 PM UK time, 9 AM PT. Here's a look at the invite that was sent to GameSpot (I'm still furiously refreshing my email inbox in the hopes of receiving one myself!).

 

Sadly, Sony offered no hint as to what it will be showing, but that isn't going to stop us from speculating what the house of PlayStation may have in store for fans. Seeing as how the event takes place in France, in incredibly close proximity to Heavy Rain developer Quantic Dream, perhaps we'll get a glimpse at its new project.

Remember this freakishly-realistic old man wizard tech demo thing the studio teased a while back? Maybe we'll find out how (or if) it's actually being turned into a game.

 

Let's also not forget that Media Molecule (you know, the LittleBigPlanet creators?) are also based in Europe, so it's safe to assume we'll get another look at that super weird and creative project Dreams, which it debuted for PlayStation 4 during Sony's E3 2015 media briefing.

Need a refresher on its trippy showing? We've got you covered. 

With regard to what else might be there, your guess is as good as mine. Perhaps a fresh look at the Ratchet & Clank remake? I'd like to think we'll see more of Uncharted 4: A Thief's End or Guerrilla Games' Horizon: Zero Dawn, but I suspect those will be held for this year's PlayStation Experience, which takes place in December.

What are you hoping to see from Sony at Paris Games Week? Is it too optimistic to hope for a God of War IV reveal?
