It looks like Sony’s State of Play and the Resonant news will be for next week then, if they are coming at all. There were rumors about AC: Black Flag remake news for today, and I wonder if that’s where those State of Play rumors originated. Today, however, according to other rumors, was only the media event for Black Flag, with the reveal to the general public not coming until next week. Perhaps it will be in the State of Play then. We should get information about this SoP in the first half of next week, if one is indeed coming.
According to the same rumors, that Black Flag release date would be July 9, 2026, meaning if Resonant were to come out in late June, another big Assassin’s Creed game would land right next to it, which might not be good news for Resonant. It’s starting to look strongly like an August release.
Regarding the Resonant news, it’s also hard to see Kasurinen being sent to Gamescom Latam right after May Day just to talk about 3-6 month old gameplay clips for no reason. A brand director can’t really just leave their core work to start marketing unless there is something concrete to market (=buy). The most logical thing would be that by Gamescom Latam, the game has a release date and is available for pre-order.
