Αυτό ανακοινώθηκε δια στόματος, Shawn Layden, ο οποίος είναι ο πρόεδρος της Sony Interactive Entertainment Worldwide Studios.
“For 2018, I know this is going to be a disappointment to some people, but we have decided not to hold PlayStation Experience. We won’t have it in the States this year. The reasons behind that really are, we don’t have—we have a lot of progress that we’re making in our games, and we’re seeing that coming out—now that we have Spider-Man out the door, we’re looking down into 2019 into games like Dreams and Days Gone, but we wouldn’t have enough to bring people all together in some location in North America to have that event. We don’t want to set expectations really high and then not deliver on it, so we have—it was a hard decision—but we have determined that this year we will not hold PlayStation Experience.”
H PlayStation Experience διαρκεί 2 μέρες και γίνεται το Δεκέμβριο, όπου η Sony και οι συνεργάτες της δείχνουν στο κοινό τους τελευταίους τίτλους που ετοιμάζονται για το PlayStation. Επίσης γίνεται και μια συνέντευξη Τύπου, όπου έχει τις ανακοινώσεις και τα τρέιλερ των παιχνιδιών.
