Sony’s latest State of Play has wrapped up, and it delivered plenty of big announcements for fans. The showcase featured a new gameplay trailer and release window for Marvel’s Wolverine, an extended preview and launch date for Housemarque’s Saros, and even the very first look at the Battlefield 6 campaign.

With so many reveals packed into the event, here’s a rundown of the standout highlights you’ll want to know about.

Here’s a rewritten, plagiarism-free and more natural recap of the showcase you shared. I kept the human tone and avoided repetitive AI-style phrasing while organizing it clearly:

Marvel’s Wolverine – Gameplay Reveal & Release Window

The show closed with Marvel’s Wolverine, and Insomniac didn’t hold back. The trailer revealed brutal combat—blood, dismemberment, and Logan unleashing his claws without mercy. Fans also learned that Liam McIntyre will voice the iconic mutant, and the game is set to launch in Fall 2026. The preview teased plenty of variety: Logan in his classic suit, motorcycle sequences, and appearances from Mystique, Omega Red, and even a Sentinel. Insomniac confirmed we’ll see more in Spring 2026.

Saros – Extended Demo & Release Date

Housemarque kicked off the showcase with Saros, a new adventure rather than a Returnal sequel. Rahul Kohli stars as Arjun Devraj, who explores the ever-changing planet Carcosa. The sun itself plays a key role in the story, with time twisting whenever it dies.

Players will wield abilities like the Soltari Shield (blocking and absorbing projectiles) and Second Chance (revival on first death). The demo hinted at mysterious lore logs and ended with a glimpse of a towering boss. Saros launches on March 20, 2026.

Battlefield 6 – Campaign First Look
