After his small reunion at the Summer Game Fest, when he independently broadcast his State of Play presentation during the week before the start of the fair, it seems that Sony wants to finish distancing itself from these big events industrial presentations, now announced will not be part of the Gamescom 2022 list.

The information that came to us for the first time from the German media Games Wirtschaft, finally confirmed by a Sony representative, although unfortunately the company does not wish to provide any precise reason to justify this decision. Although you can see the latest PlayStation interactions, it’s almost an obvious event that has chosen to celebrate its own events try to keep users more full.

However, Sony will not be the only major absence, it is actually the second company to confirm its non-participation, for Nintendowhich has already adopted its separate Nintendo Directcts (like the one that will take place today) as the only means of presenting its other titles; In addition to other important entities such as Activision Blizzard or Take-Two Interactive.

This means that there will be no lack of content for this Gamescom 2022, which is currently more than 250 companies have already confirmed this year, already highlights some names like Bandai Namco, THQ Nordic and Koch Media. So now it seems that the eyes are on another of the big companies, Microsoft, which could take advantage of this scenario and dive into Starfield a little deeper.

And it is because, despite the fact that something has always been kept in the shadow of E3, we must not forget that. Gamescom remains the most important consumer electronics and video games trade fair in Europe, which again this year offers a hybrid format of the fair, which will allow us to follow all announcements and news through the live broadcast of your online event; such as the opportunity to take part and try out some of the titles at their personal event, which will take place again at the Congress Center in Cologne, Germany, between 24 and 28 August.
