PlayStation Productions made a significant splash at CES 2025, announcing a wave of new video game adaptations slated for release in 2025 and beyond. The January 7th presentation showcased a diverse range of projects, highlighting the studio's expanding reach in the entertainment industry.

New Adaptations Announced:

• Ghost of Tsushima: Legends (Anime Series): A new anime series based on the popular Ghost of Tsushima multiplayer mode, Legends, is in the works, a collaboration between Crunchyroll, Aniplex, and Sony Music. Directed by Takanobu Mizumo, with story composition by Gen Urobuchi, the series is set to premiere exclusively on Crunchyroll in 2027.

• Horizon Zero Dawn (Film): Sony Pictures will produce a film adaptation of the critically acclaimed Horizon Zero Dawn.

• Helldivers 2 (Film): Columbia Pictures is set to produce a film based on Helldivers 2. Details on both the Horizon and Helldivers films remain scarce.

• The Last of Us Season Two (TV Series): Neil Druckmann revealed a new trailer for the second season of The Last of Us, expanding on the storyline of The Last of Us Part II and introducing characters like Abby and Dina.

Past Successes and Ongoing Projects:

PlayStation Productions' track record includes successful adaptations like Uncharted (2022) and Gran Turismo (2023), both of which exceeded box office expectations. The Twisted Metal series, while not universally praised, completed production of its second season in late 2024, though a release date is yet to be announced.

The studio is also actively developing film adaptations of Days Gone and a sequel to the Uncharted film, along with a God of War TV series, though details on these projects remain limited.

The continued success and expansion of PlayStation Productions suggest a promising future for video game adaptations, with more beloved franchises likely to receive the film or television treatment in the years to come.
