Sony Computer Entertainment’s “PlayStation Experience” (PSX) made waves with gamers this weekend with several big titles showcased at the Las Vegas fan event.

“Thanks to all of you, PlayStation 4 is the fastest selling console of all time,” said Shawn Layden, President and CEO of Sony Computer Entertainment America, as he addressed the cheering PlayStation Fans during the event opening. “The PlayStation Experience is a small token of our gratitude, and a celebration with all of you everywhere.”

Adam Boyes, Vice President of Publisher & Developer Relations at PlayStation, confirmed that PSX would become an annual event, much to the delight of PlayStation fans.

With the enormous PR success of the PlayStation Experience, it is hard to imagine that other console companies like Microsoft and Nintendo Co., Ltd. haven’t taken notice.

The Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) is the biggest event in gaming right now, but companies have to share space and audience with their competitors during E3. Showcasing popular titles with a lot of hype directly to dedicated fans seems to have paid off for PlayStation.

Highlights: Big names, old and new

The PlayStation Experience event saw several high profile game trailers and announcements.

Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End

The event kicked off with a 15-minute gameplay video of Uncharted 4, the latest game in a series that combines equal parts Tomb Raider and Indiana Jones. The footage shows game protagonist Nathan Drake in all of his next-gen glory, leaping through caves and exploring jungles.

No Man’s Sky

A new IP with an ambitious scale, No Man’s Sky is a space sim set to compete in a genre that is undergoing a rebirth with crowdfunded games like Elite: Dangerous and Star Citizen. PSX showed a gameplay trailer that showcased No Man’s Sky’s massive scale and focus on exploration.

Bloodborne

A new title being made by From Software, the developer being Dark Souls, Bloodborne is a similar game focusing on insanely difficult combat and dark, brooding environments. In a gameplay video, the developers spoke about the game’s procedurally generated dungeons, which change form depending on the player.

Final Fantasy VII

Final Fantasy VII is being ported to more formats than the original Star Wars trilogy, and now it will be coming to the PlayStation 4. Gamers have been hoping for years for Final Fantasy VII to be remastered with new graphics, and unfortunately, they will have to continue to wait.
