The last year has been quite good for Sony’s console business, as the electronics titan shipped 17.7 million PlayStation 4 units. The company has been the dominant force in this generation of consoles, and E3 2016 offers an opportunity for the company to keep the momentum going. At last year’s E3, Sony blitzed the gaming world with trailers for the long-gestating The Last Guardian and the long-rumored Final Fantasy VII remake. Will Sony display the same verve again this year? Below is a quick breakdown on how to watch Sony’s E3 press conference, and a rundown of what to look out for.
Sony’s press conference is set to begin at 5:30 p.m. PT on Monday, June 13, and you have a few options for watching the conference live. Sony’s main page is live.playstation.com, and will allow viewers who have PlayStation Network accounts to log in and unlock digital rewards while watching. Sony will also stream the conference on PlayStation’s official YouTube and Twitch channels. PlayStation 3 and PS4 owners can even watch on their consoles using the Live Events Viewer app.
