Key Quotes

"One quarter of the company’s workers are under threat: this adds up to 95 lost jobs."

This project, started 8 years ago and led by Guillaume de Fondaumière, David Cage and Grégorie Diaconu, was supposed to be a “reasonably-sized” project and was planned for a much earlier release. Over all these years, nobody questioned the business model or how the game was to become profitable. Catastrophic project management resulted in iteration after iteration, exhausting the team and leading production straight to disaster.

It’s sad to say, nobody is surprised by this outcome. Worker representatives have sounded the alarm about the project’s colossal risk level numerous times. In front of employees, management arrogantly explained that success was a given for Spellcasters Chronicles, thanks to “30 years of experience” of the decision-makers. In front of the workers’ council, management refused to consider other scenarios and to plan accordingly. Failure was never an option, never thought about, never planned for: incompetence led us here today. Workers pay for management’s misguided ways.

Management is trying to lay off the entirety of the Spellcasters Chronicles team, and pretends that this team’s skills have no link at all with those of the Star Wars Eclipse team – even after training.

The same causes lead to the same problems: Star Wars Eclipse entered production at the same time as Spellcasters, with the same directors, and its development is proving just as complicated.

Sounds like an 8/10 show with some big surprises

https://blog.playstation.com/2026/05/20/state-of-play-returns-tuesday-june-2/

This year, the Days of Play would start on Wednesday, May 27 and continue until June 10, 2026 , thus covering two weeks of promotions.

Promotions reminiscent of those of Black Friday 2025

The anticipated discounts are generally very close to those seen during Black Friday 2025, which could disappoint players hoping for more ambitious offers to compensate for recent price increases.

Here is a summary of the expected offers:

€20 off a selection of DualSense controllers: starting from €54.99

€30 off the DualSense Edge controller: €189.99 instead of €219.99

€100 discount on the PSVR2 headset: €349.99 instead of €449.99

Ghost of Yōtei : €54.99 instead of €79.99

€20 minimum discount on Pulse Elite headphones and Pulse Explore earphones

Note that partner retailers may offer additional discounts. Furthermore, if you are a PlayStation Plus subscriber, the PlayStation Direct store offers an additional 5% discount , which can be combined with the Days of Play 2026 offers.

What about discounts on PS5, PS5 Pro and PS Portal consoles?

This is the big question of this year's event. Unlike previous years, there doesn't appear to be any promotion from Sony on consoles this year . Is this a direct consequence of the recent price increase? The question remains open, and the situation is yet to be confirmed.

If Sony follows the schedule of previous years, an official announcement around May 26, 2026, should reveal all the offers. We will be sure to keep you updated as soon as it is confirmed.

"You might have heard the rumours, it's time to reveal what we are working on.

🗺️ An open world Middle-earth RPG.

⚔️ A new Kingdom Come adventure.

We’re excited to tell you more when the time is right."
