Specifically, Sony says in a post on the PlayStation Blog that its fans should expect “exciting reveals from our third-party partners, plus a sneak peek at several games in development for PlayStation VR2.” It doesn’t look like God of War: Ragnarok will appear here, but it will certainly be a welcome surprise if it does.
