Sony announced last week it would be taking a page from Nintendo and Microsoft by launching its own reveal event. Monday, the company held its first State of Play event and says it will be holding more of these events throughout 2019 to talk about the latest game releases for PlayStation as well as what's coming to PlayStation VR.
Though it's Sony's first such live show, it's only fitting the company would take this route as Nintendo has its Nintendo Direct and Microsoft broadcasts updates during its Inside Xbox shows.

A deeper dive was given to several VR games including Observation, which was announced as a sci-fi thriller that will have you controlling a huge space station as you uncover a terrifying story of the remaining survivors. Five Nights at Freddy's was showcased with scary in-game VR footage and Concrete Genie followed a young artist who has the ability to draw creatures that will help protect him and restore life to a dying city.
New details on upcoming PlayStation 4 games
PlayStation VR was the clear focus of the event, but Sony also gave us a few more titles coming to consoles along with updates to games we already knew about.
Days Gone got a firm release date of April 26, 2019 and showed some actual gameplay. You play as bounty hunter Deacon Saint John who uses all the firepower he can get his hands on to blow away undead "Freakers." An interesting tid bit was the ability to lure freakers to where your enemies are and let them do all the dirty work.
Mortal Kombat 11 also got some screen time, showing off Kung Lau, Liu Kang and Jax, adding to the long list of fighters we're expecting to see with all the blood and gore the franchise is known for.
