PS4 gamers will want to tune in to find out more

ORIGINAL: Sony have warned that their presser will be geared towards European gamers and will be looking to show off more of previously announced titles.
Could this mean a big Black Ops 3 Zombies update? There are still big parts of the mode that haven't been revealed yet, or a possible release date for No Man's Sky could be on the cards, perhaps?
Sony have been playing it pretty close to their chest so it's hard to say what to expect, the tech giants has a huge list of new indie titles being developed exclusively for PS4, so this event could rely heavily on new content reveals for those.
For those heading to Paris Games Week, a trip to the PlayStation booth will provide a large selection of upcoming titles, including Call of Duty: Black Ops 3, Star Wars Battlefront, and Ratchet & Clank.
