Its past midnight here. I will check the news on the toilet in the morning

 

[Snake29]

Any minute now….

 

[ANIMAL1975]

I'm really not.

Again, I have some friends in the gaming industry. These aren't SVPs or anything, so your mileage may vary.

I don't have a blog or podcast, so I'm not really trying to stake my reputation here, either. I am relaying what I have heard secondhand, and the value of that information is not what I'd call solid gold.

Thanks mate

 

[Tommi84]

Thank god it's after midnight here so I can go to sleep and not wait.

Hope for the best, expect no news in the next few hours

 

[plasmawave]

It's already been few hours, bro.

 

[AmuroChan]

It could be a few hours, or a few days. Give or take.

 

[tmlDan]

It's already been few hours, bro.

its been 1 hour ......you good? lol

 

[adamsapple]

We're making topics about random Tweets now ?

There's gonna be a lot of insiders making vague tweets until the news actually comes out this week lol

 

[Wooxsvan]

Any minute now….

 

[Draugoth]

It's Armored Core 6,

this explains the rumor being somethign related fo FS and Bandai and Greg saying it was 'interesting':

 

[Patrick S.]

Sure. Also, Earth could be hit by a meteor the size of New York within a few hours.

 

[Elginer]

Broken hearts incoming

So you’re saying a new Shadow Hearts game?!!!

 

[tmlDan]

That would not excite greg miller tho, that guys a mainstream triple A gaming hoe

 

[skit_data]

Sounds like someone took some pieces from Dune, mechs and called it Armored Core 6.

Edit: Unless Melange is a common term in previous installments, I haven’t played them so IDK.

 

[TidusYuna]

Any minute now….

 

[envyzeal]

07:43 in Japan now

 

[Apollo Helios]

You know 23 hours can be called hours before it should be called a day, so this account owner rolled the dice on news breaking on Tuesday and create this 'it's imminent' post...
Also everyone knows most PS announcements come Mondays and Tuesdays plus there is already another confirmed source from that VGC article saying it's early in the week...

 

[Bartski]

It's Armored Core 6,

this explains the rumor being somethign related fo FS and Bandai and Greg saying it was 'interesting':

this reiterated old info from the previous leak on resetera

 

[Hobbygaming]

Knack 2 Remake Baby!

 

[TheBomb]

I'm calling my lawyer. Lol

 

[AtomicStarving]

Konami AND/OR Square Enix is involved. My bet!

 

[AtomicStarving]

It's Armored Core 6,

Wait, FS just released one of the best games of all time and they will announce a new game right away? That doesn't make any sense to me.

 

[kingfey]

Sony doing news at night is funny.

Unless it's morning or noon, that news will not get alot of traction.

 

[Belthazar]

Sony would own anime entirely and even manga lmao.

It's actually makes such an acquisition make a lot more sense, it aligns well with their current pursuits

 

[adamsapple]

Sony doing news at night is funny.

Unless it's morning or noon, that news will not get alot of traction.

It's already morning in Japan.

Provided this news is supposed to come out of Japan int he first place.

Sony's key leadership is in EU now.

It is morning tho.

 

[TheAmazingSpiderMan]

Random Tuesday here we come!

 

[TrebleShot]

It’s obviously a blog post

 

[RoadHazard]

Who dat tho

 

[bitbydeath]

So, the sources I have (yes, I have some connections in the gaming world) are saying it's about From and something about Capcom and possibly Konami.

The current confidence level is hovering around 20-30%, so find a GIANT grain of salt and don't wager any money you can't afford to lose.

Edit: Sorry, not From, but Bandai-Namco.

Bandai purchase would get them the Elden Ring IP, it’d make sense to get From as well.

You’re rumour sounds like it’s to coincide with Spartacus, to give them a massive library boost.

 

[John Wick]

Where do you stand, did he do right to defend his hairless wife or not?

Prick took his frustrations with his wife out on Rock. Maybe he should of slapped her like that.

 

[HTK]

My sources have confirmed to me that PlayStation has an announcement to make in the near future. It could involve hardware and/or software.

You've heard it here first.

 

[MasterCornholio]

It’s obviously a blog post

I’m guessing that’s how Spartacus will be revealed with maybe a video on the channel.

 

[elliot5]

Why would it get them the Elden Ring IP? How do you know From doesn’t own it and bandai simply publishes it

 

[nush]

It's not Wednesday.

 

[RaZoR No1]

Knack Legendary Collection for PS5 and PC incl. Raytracing and 3D Audio.

 

[bitbydeath]

Why would it get them the Elden Ring IP? How do you know From doesn’t own it and bandai simply publishes it

Bandai owns the Dark Souls IP, Sony owns Demons and Bloodborne IP, not sure if it’s been outright stated but it’d make sense Bandai would therefore own Elden Ring too.

 

[Ezquimacore]

I don't think sony will spend 15b in bandai namco when they already get all their content

 

[NoLootBoxDev]

 

[bitbydeath]

I don't think sony will spend 15b in bandai namco when they already get all their content

The only reason I can see, would be to populate Spartacus with titles. Making it a real GamePass competitor.

 

[kingfey]

It is morning tho.

Night time for US.

 

[kingfey]

It's already morning in Japan.

Provided this news is supposed to come out of Japan int he first place.

Sony's key leadership is in EU now.

Isnt Sony in the US?

I thought they were based on California.

 

[adamsapple]

Isnt Sony in the US?

I thought they were based on California.

If the announcement is supposed to come out of Japan it makes sense to come out during the day time in Japan.

But if it's Spartacus or something it'll probably be a suitable time for a WW announcement, which would be tomorrow morning-ish time in the US, which is afternoon in EU and still somewhat evening in Japan.

 

[Oddvintagechap]

why is everyone crazy excited?

Could be as simple as the PS+ rebrand.

 

[Badlucktroll]

So Sony may have gotten Konami or its IPs? Big whoop, right?

 

[kyliethicc]

why is everyone crazy excited?

Could be as simple as the PS+ rebrand.

If the prospect of paying $16/month to be able stream Lair and Haze in 720p30 doesn't have you at peak hype then idk what to say man.

 

[Zeroing]

I do not have twitter so people trust me I’m a real insider!

why is everyone crazy excited?

Could be as simple as the PS+ rebrand.

my sources tell me that people are excited

 

[mckmas8808]

why is everyone crazy excited?

Could be as simple as the PS+ rebrand.

But Spartacus isn't a PS+ rebrand.

 

[Shifty]

Ticket pays for the whole seat, but you'll only need the edge.

 

[Captain Toad]

But Spartacus isn't a PS+ rebrand.

The rumor is "Spartacus" is the rebranding of different tiers of PS+, at least one of which is replacing PS Now.
