Music is a vital part of any video game experience, being able to elevate a good game to a great one and vice versa. In a surprise announcement, Sony has officially unveiled their plans for a PlayStation world tour concert – coming to over 200 cities from next year.
Making the announcement on the PlayStation Blog, Sid Shuman – the Senior Director for SIE Content Communications – said “for the many live music lovers in our community, I’m pleased to share that the teams here at PlayStation have been working together with RoadCo Entertainment, and GEA Live to develop a groundbreaking live music event that brings our most iconic gaming soundtracks to life under the PlayStation banner for the first time.”
Said to feature “state-of-the-art production” the world tour will include music from many notable PlayStation franchises, including but not limited to:
- The Last of Us
- God of War
- Ghost of Tsushima
- Horizon (Zero Dawn + Forbidden West)
Being more than just a concert, the world tour will consist of “a stunning fusion of multi-layered visuals, immersive surround sound, and an all-star ensemble blending classical and modern instruments.”
Full details on the tour can be found HERE, but the 2025 concert will begin in Europe (more specifically Dublin on the 19th of April), with multiple concerts then taking place across the UK, including:
- Glasgow
- London
- Birmingham
- Manchester
