PlayStation State of Play unveils Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls and more

Sony used its June 2 PlayStation State of Play broadcast to unveil a wave of new games heading to PlayStation 5 and PC, headlined by Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls, a four-versus-four tag-team fighting game built around Marvel's roster of heroes and villains, scheduled to launch on August 6, 2026. Sony confirmed the game will also be playable on the show floor at EVO 2026 in Las Vegas from June 26 to 28, giving the fighting-game community an early hands-on look ahead of release. The showcase also featured a string of other reveals, including Onimusha: Way of the Sword and a remastered edition of Dynasty Warriors 3, both aimed at longtime fans of Japanese action franchises that have built loyal followings across multiple console generations. The announcements arrive in the middle of an unusually busy stretch for the games industry, with Microsoft's own Xbox Games Showcase recently revealing Persona 6 and a new release date for the long-delayed Fable reboot, and Summer Game Fest 2026 simultaneously spotlighting a fresh crop of independent titles. Taken together, the run of showcases underscores how concentrated major game announcements have become around early summer, as publishers compete for attention ahead of the back-to-back conventions and award shows that follow later in the year.
