Sony revealed more details about the upcoming game-to-screen adaptations, including announcements for new adaptations, at its CES 2025 presentation. In particular, he revealed that Screen Gems, which is part of Sony Pictures, is making a film based on Helldivers 2; and the partnership with Crunchyroll to produce an anime adaptation of Ghost of Tsushima. The company also revealed more information about the upcoming adaptations of Until Dawn and Horizon Zero Dawn, as well as the second season of the Emmy-winning series, the last of us.
PlayStation Studios' Asad Qizilbash and Screen Gems' Ashley Brucks both revealed more details about the Helldivers 2 and Until Dawn adaptations. There is not much to reveal about the Helldivers movie as it is currently in production, and it will be a live-action movie. The two also showed a commercial with Peter Stormare, who appeared in Until Dawn and will also appear in the film adaptation. Both Stormare and Brucks confirmed that the film is not a direct adaptation but pays homage to the games. That film will release on April 25.
Earlier in the show, Crunchyroll's Rahul Purini took to the stage to discuss the service's popular and upcoming anime, and also revealed that Sucker Punch has an anime adaptation of Ghost of Tsushima, called Ghost of Tsushima: Legends, in the works. As the title implies, the series is based on the game's multiplayer Legends mode and is made in collaboration with Aniplex. It is scheduled to be released sometime in 2027.
Qizilbash also made two final announcements: Guerrilla Games' Horizon Zero Dawn is getting an adaptation after all – specifically, a movie adaptation. The game was originally going to be adapted into a series for Netflix, but a report from Rolling Stone revealed that it was not moving forward as of last July. The other news was a release window for the upcoming second season of The Last of Us, along with a trailer showing several prominent characters, including Abby. The new season launches in April.
