Sony’s June State of Play Is Second-Biggest Livestream
Sony’s June State of Play drew more than five million views and peaked at three million concurrent viewers, ranking second to the June 2020 PS5 reveal.
Sony held a State of Play livestream in June 2026 that drew more than five million total views and peaked at three million concurrent viewers. The event ranks as the company’s second-most watched livestream, behind the June 2020 PS5 reveal, which has about 15 million views.
Platform tracking and YouTube view counts show the broadcast surpassed PlayStation’s previous streaming records in under 12 hours. The video-on-demand version overtook the 2021 PS Showcase in total views. At the time the data was compiled, the June episode had exceeded a February 2026 State of Play that accumulated 3.4 million views.
The broadcast included a dedicated segment for Phantom Blade Zero and showed multiple game reveals and trailers. Early view-count trends identified the trailers for Marvel’s Wolverine and God of War: Laufey as the most-watched individual videos from the show.
PlayStation has held several State of Play presentations over the past year, using the format for both focused game broadcasts and broader showcases. The June State of Play continued to gain views after the initial livestream.
Sony did not issue a public statement with the viewership figures. The cited metrics come from platform tracking services and YouTube view counts.
