Home beta users were recently invited to try out a new Home venue. This "Media and Events" space is currently a recreation of the PlayStation Day event that took place in London a couple of weeks ago. In the future Sony plans on using the space to host "everything from new game unveilings to sports events to fashion shows." The PlayStation Day decoration of the Media and Events area included various elements from the real-world event, such as artwork and photographs from the show.
The new area includes jumbo screens on which the keynote speech was broadcast for the beta users to see. There was also a "a video stream of all the action from the real-world PlayStation Day experience." Check out our gallery below for a few screenshots and expect a video to appear online before too long. Sony has said that "following the test event's success Home will now start scheduling more elaborate and exciting productions for the Space." These will not only be available to first party developers, but to third party companies too.
This new part of Home looks like it'll be an excellent way to let gamers experience all of the trade shows that go on throughout the year. Not only that, but we're looking forward to seeing exclusive announcements being made from within Home. Once it's out, that is.
