Here's a rundown of the biggest takeaways: The biggest news of the night was Sony's announcement that it would be releasing a hand-held streaming device called Project Q. The device resembles hand-held consoles like the Nintendo Switch, and has the PlayStation 5 controller split in half on either side. Project Q will allow users to connect via the internet to their PlayStation 5 at home and stream the games they already own, and take the gaming experience anywhere with them. The device also boasts an 8-inch HD screen. Sony will reveal more information on the hand-held soon, including a release date. However, perhaps the best received announcement among fans was that Konami will release a remake of one of its most popular games, <i>Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater</i>. The game was originally released in 2004 on the PlayStation 2. Directed by Japanese video game director Hideo Kojima, the entry is one of the most loved by fans of the series, receiving stellar reviews from video game publications.

A sequel to the 2018 title release by Insomniac Games, the sequel’s trailer shows that the game will include original Spider-Man Peter Parker, as well as his protege Miles Morales, who got his own game in 2020. The trailer also shows Venom as a playable character, as well as revealing Kraven the Hunter to be one of the main villains of the game.

Also a sequel, the game picks up the story of writer Alan Wake, who became entangled in a supernatural lake that forced him to write fiction to save his wife.
