PlayStation Experience 2015 PS4

Sony has officially announced that PlayStation Experience, the convention dedicated to PlayStation fans, will return this December. Despite relocating to San Francisco, the platform holder promises that this year's show will once again play host to tons of unreleased titles, while attendees will also secure front-row seats for "major PlayStation announcements" and "those patented PlayStation surprises that you've come to expect". We absolutely adored this event 12 months ago, so we're delighted to see it return.

There have been some changes. As pointed out earlier, it'll now be held at the Moscone Centre in San Francisco on 5th December and 6th December, rather than The Venetian in Las Vegas. It'll also be cheaper than ever before, with those who register before 20th September able to purchase two-day passes for just $60, which sounds like it'll be worth every cent. Slow coaches who register after the aforementioned cut-off date will still be able to get two-day passes for $75, while day passes will cost $45 on the Saturday and $40 on the Sunday.

Sony "strongly recommends" entering your PSN username when purchasing tickets, for reasons that will "make sense come December"

Tickets are on sale right now, so you should book before they run out, as we suspect that this is going to be very popular now that it's an established event. Intriguingly, the platform holder also points out that it "strongly recommends" entering your PlayStation Network username when purchasing, for reasons that will apparently "make sense come December". Hmm, that's interesting, isn't it? The manufacturer has even been kind enough to secure some discounted hotel rooms should you require accommodation, and you can find that information on the PlayStation Blog.

In addition to all of the PlayStation Experience action, the final of the Capcom Cup will be held during the event, where 32 of the world's best Street Fighter players will battle it out over a $250,000 prize pool. If you want front-row seats to that, you'll be able to purchase a Capcom Cup VIP pass, which for $75 will grant you access to the finals, as well as a goodie bag and entry into the after party. It sounds like it's going to be a bigger and better show than ever before, then – we're absolutely buzzing about this, and can't wait for the event to roll around.
