Playstation brings video game music to the big stage

Imagine you're sitting in a concert hall and the sounds of "The Last of Us" fill the room. Or the epic music of "God of War" gives you goosebumps. This will soon be a reality! Playstation has announced a global concert series starting in Europe in 2025.

The legendary soundtracks that have accompanied us over the past decades are brought live to the stage. From the melancholic melodies of "Ghost of Tsushima" to the rousing chorales of "God of War" - the greatest hits in Playstation history are brought to life by an orchestra. A multiscreen design combining LED and projection technologies will also show the moments and images from these games.

The concert series will cover a wide range of genres and offer something for every taste. In this way, you can immerse yourself in the world of your favourite games and experience the music in a whole new way. Playstation justifies the decision to organise a concert series with the special significance of music in video games: Soundtracks have been instrumental in intensifying players' emotional experiences,
