In the case of The Last of Us series, we know that Craig Mazin (Chernobyl) and Neil Druckmann himself, one of the figures who has headed the franchise, will be involved in the direction.

PlayStation’s appearance at CES 2021 updates our schedule for the next 12 months and beyond.

Kena: Bridge of Spirits will arrive in March, while Returnal maintains its end date: March 19.
On the other hand, GhostWire: Tokyo is targeting October this year, as is Stray. In the more distant future, Square Enix’s new IP, Project Athia, will be launched in January 2022. Unfortunately we will have to wait to see Capcom’s unreleased brand: Pragmata is going somewhere in 2023, that is, in two years minimum. Click on this link to know the rest of the dates.
