Best Highlights From the PlayStation Showcase 2023
While highlights are subjective because I fancy myself an indie here and there and don’t care too much for VR, the objective highlights of the PlayStation Showcase 2023 include 12 gameplay-filled minutes of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2.
As a big Bungie fan, I was very hyped for the reveal of Marathon, a brand new PvP shooter from Bungie (and, no it’s not a remake). Can’t wait to hear more about this one — the CGI trailer looks insane!
We got two nearly two minutes of gameplay from Assassin’s Creed Mirage. This one looks really good; I can’t wait to play Ubisoft’s return to original AC form with Mirage.
Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater was announced which is a remake of Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater. As someone whose never played Metal Gear Solid, I’m very much looking forward to Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater.
Other notable highlights are the new trailer for Final Fantasy XVI, The Plucky Squire which is a charming indie, and Synapse, an awesome looking action-shooter PS VR2 game. There were tons more games shown, but those were some of the most notable. Oh, and Phantom Blade Zero — that belongs in honorable mentions.

Thirty-two games in total and only two new concrete release dates that we didn’t already know about. Hopefully, we get PlayStation Showcases more frequently in the future so that we can hear updates on these games and see some more from their studios (I’m looking at you, Naughty Dog, Sucker Punch, and Bend Studio).
