Recently, whispers have been circulating about a potential PlayStation State of Play event in February 2025, which could shed light on what Sony has up its sleeve for the gaming world this year. Fans are eagerly anticipating updates on titles like Death Stranding 2: On the Beach and Ghost of Yotei, as many launch dates remain a mystery. Interestingly, one of these elusive release dates might have slipped out, hinting at the imminent arrival of this much-speculated State of Play.

## Hell Is Us Release Date Potentially Unveiled Ahead of State of Play
In the latest buzz, PlayStation Game Size took to X to share what appears to be the cover art for the Deluxe Edition of the soon-to-arrive game, Hell Is Us. You might recall that this action-adventure was first introduced during last year’s September State of Play. Set against a post-apocalyptic backdrop, the game looks to draw inspiration from the soulslike genre. Accompanying this cover art is the proposed release date of September 4. Those opting for the $80 Deluxe Edition can dive into the action a bit earlier, starting on September 1.

A curious discovery was later made by another user on X, who claimed to have spotted Hell Is Us listed on the Xbox Store. According to PlayStation Game Size, this was an early addition and the PS Store is expected to reflect the same once the rumored State of Play rolls out its announcements.
Currently, the Xbox Store hosts listings for both the Standard and Deluxe Editions of Hell Is Us, though it hasn’t disclosed any specifics on pricing or release just yet. What it does reveal, however, are the perks bundled with the Deluxe Edition: 72-hour early access, DLC skins, a unique investigation, and The Art Pack containing a digital artbook and soundtrack. While the PS Store hasn’t featured the Deluxe Edition so far, a general listing can be found.
As with all speculative news, it’s wise to remain skeptical until official confirmation. There have been situations where what seemed like credible leaks ended up leading us astray. We’ll have to wait for an official word to confirm whether Hell Is Us is set for a September launch.
