Sony's CES 2025 press convention was big on the leisure entrance in the event you're a PlayStation fan. In a sequence of rapid-fire bulletins, the corporate introduced it was making an anime primarily based on Ghost of Tsushima Legends, the cooperative multiplayer mode from the acclaimed sport. It then adopted that up with information that Columbia Footage was within the early phases of creating a film primarily based on the post-post-apocalyptic PlayStation sport Horizon Zero Daybreak. Lastly, Neil Druckmann from Naughty Canine popped out to announce that season two of The Final of Us would hit HBO in April.
We already know a good bit about The Final of Us season two — its primarily based on 2020's The Final of Us Half 2, nevertheless it gained't take us by means of the entire occasions of the second sport. It'll take at the very least two seasons to retell the story of that terrific however complicated distress simulator. This season, Kaitlyn Dever, Isabela Merced, Catherine O'Hara and Jeffery Wright be part of season one veterans Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey.
The opposite tasks stay a thriller for now. A bit over two years in the past, we heard that Horizon Zero Daybreak was being tailored as a sequence for Netflix, however the challenge finally fell aside. I'm undoubtedly curious to see how they'll streamline the sport's sprawling storyline into a good narrative for a two-hour film (or perhaps a three-hour one), however hopefully a robust inventive crew is behind this one.
As for Ghost of Tsushima, it's one other of essentially the most well-regarded and common PlayStation Studios titles, with a sequel on the best way, so that is simply one other instance of Sony utilizing a few of its greatest gaming titles to broaden into the broader leisure house — making these tales extra accessible to people who find themselves much less prone to play a 20-to-40-hour sport.
On a private notice, The Final of Us and Horizon Zero Daybreak are two of my favourite video games of all time, so this 10-minute blast of excellent information was most welcome in the midst of a really lengthy day at CES!
