On the very same day that we got a brand new Nintendo Direct, Sony Interactive Entertainment decided to drop a live stream event of its own. The latest State of Play came through to showcase 10 games spread out across the PS5, PS4, and PS VR2. Over the course of 20 minutes, everyone got a better look at a lineup of games that are set to get featured prominently at this year's Tokyo Game Show (September 15 to 18) and some pretty cool surprises. Here's everything that was shown off during the PlayStation State of Play September 2022.

'God of War Ragnarök'
The sequel to 2018's God of War got to end this PlayStation State of Play presentation on a very strong note. First, we got to see the debut of the God of War Ragnarök-themed DualSense controller. And once that piece of footage came to a close, we got a brand new gameplay trailer for the game that showcases plenty of storyline moments and huge boss battles. The one that piqued everyone's interest the most was the trailer-ending clash between Kratos and Thor, which saw both Kratos' trusty ax and Thor's Mjölnir hammer clash with each other in the heat of battle.
