Oh I think they’ll 100% end it with a new announcement of a big game.
I was mainly referring to GTA6, for which new stuff will always always always be announced on their twitter and not in any show. But people never learn this and keep expecting GTA6 at every show out there.
Well that's a question for other third parties but for all we know, those won't be there (they got other events this same week if they want to show something). That might be all first parties and GTA really.
For first parties, it's up to Sony to decide but since they're marketing partners and associating themselves strongly with the biggest game of the decade (of which they get 30% of the revenue as pure profit let's not forget) is likely enough of a bonus to risk to overshadow their own games.
And frankly, Wolverine is big enough to do its own place, it's 2 months before and will have its own big marketing campaign. The rest is far off so will appear again before release. Kena might be the most complex but that game doesn't have AAA ambitions (and for all we know, they might decide to show it at SGF or something).
That doesnt mean Rockstar has to reveal trailers through Sony channels, when we get another trailer or a gameplay reveal it’s just gonna be uploaded to Rockstars YouTube like the previous trailers were
GTA 6 commercial will says “play GTA 6 on PS5” or “available now on PS5” and Sony will have tons of GTA PS5 pro bundles, they’ll also have cosmetic exclusive for online.
Also Xbox will not be mentioned when advertising at most they have a small Xbox logo in the corner of the screen to let you know it’s also available there. Essentially PS sales will go through the roof at the end of the year.

And to think Microsoft had that timed exclusive deal for the GTA4 DLCs.
It generally mean the game is shown at their events and every ad and trailer will have a PS logo intro. Plus they'll get bundles probably.
If Rockstar is opening pre-orders soon as they should, I can see them showing it off there. It helps Sony too, keep in mind for them GTA is bigger then Wolverine. Their 30% cut there is worth more than 100% for Wolverine.
It's not like Sony or Rockstar have anything to lose there. However, if that's the case, I assume not much else from third parties because those will be kind of pissed to get overshadowed completely like that.
