Sony Worldwide Studios chief Shawn Layden has confirmed that the format holder will host its annual E3 showcase on the evening of Monday, June 11. Or if you're in the UK, the early hours of Tuesday morning. Bugger. 

Speaking on the latest PlayStation Blogcast, Layden revealed that the event will be streamed on YouTube, Twitch, and Facebook, and offers a 'deep dive' into four major upcoming PlayStation 4-exclusives: Death Stranding, Ghost of Tsushima, Spider-Man, and The Last of Us Part 2.

Of course, those won't be the only titles battling for the limelight at E3. Layden confirmed that the press event will be packed with announcements regarding third-party games, as well as the usual does of Indie-related news. 

'So today I would just like to talk about helping people understand where we’re going with the E3 event this year, and I’ll just come right out and say it. E3 this year will feature exclusive looks and deep dives on four upcoming titles—four of our big titles… We have great content. We have fantastic updates. I think everyone will be thrilled to see it. And we’re taking kind of a different angle on how we’re bringing it out,' said Layden.

Sony's showcase will kick off at 2.00am BST on June 12.
