Report: Sony Showing Two Unannounced Games at Gamescom

This year have provided PlayStation gamers with a deluge of new announcements, from God of War: Ascension and Beyond: Two Souls to PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale and The Unfinished Swan. And according to PlayStation Universe, the new game reveals will continue unabated at this year’s Gamescom show in Cologne, Germany.

PSU reports that it “has received details on Sony’s line-up for Gamescom,” and that Sony “will indeed showcase two previously unannounced games” during the show. Based on the information it has received, “one of the games is from a ‘Japan Studio,' while the other is apparently a new 'Move IP'."

The reference to “a” Japan Studio is confusing. Could this be referencing Sony’s full-owned Japanese developer Studio Japan, or another second or third party developer from Sony’s home country? Also confusing is the announcement of a new IP for PlayStation Move, a peripheral that has largely failed to resonate with both the hardcore community and the general consumer. It's worth noting that the latter description is confirmation that this new IP, if it actually exists, will be for PlayStation 3. However, the former rumored title could be for PlayStation 3 or PlayStation Vita.

Nonetheless, this report joins other Gamescom-related PlayStation rumors, including that the company may be prepared to show a new version of the PlayStation 3 at the show, which takes place from August 15th through August 19th.

We’ve reached out to Sony for more details on both of the rumored game reveals and will update with any new information we receive.
