Sony announces PlayStation The Concert arena tour in UK next April

Sony has announced PlayStation The Concert, an arena tour of video game music coming to the UK next year.

The world tour promises "state of the art production" that merges music and visuals, with music from the likes of God of War, The Last of Us, Ghost of Tsushima, and Horizon.

PlayStation The Concert will tour the UK in April 2025, stopping at Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds, Newcastle, Glasgow, and London.

Video game concerts have proven incredibly popular. Earlier this year, I attended the Elden Ring Symphonic Adventure at London's Royal Albert Hall, which proved to be the perfect recap ahead of DLC Shadow of the Erdtree.

Bertie, meanwhile, attended a Baldur's Gate 3 orchestral performance as part of the Game Music Festival in May.
