Inspired by the recently launched brand campaign, "It Happens On PS5", and timed to coincide with Black Friday, Sony Interactive Entertainment is holding a PS5 event in the heart of Berlin, together with partners including Xperion, Rocket Beans TV, Epic Games and Electronic Arts.

A two-day community event featuring live programming will take place at the Xperion Arena on 28 and 29 November. At Saturn on Alexanderplatz, a special area will offer the chance to play numerous PS5 titles. Nearby, at Ravelinplatz, there will also be a special installation of a crashed spaceship based on the current brand campaign (exhibitted until 14 December). This installation forms part of a series of global campaigns, with other installations appearing in cities such as Lisbon, Madrid, Milan and London.

On Friday 28 November, Fabian Käufer, Gregor Kartsios, Tim Heinke and John Braun from Rocket Beans and Game Two will be hosting a varied programme. Visitors can look forward to a live podcast, as well as tournament shows for EA FC 26 and Battlefield 6. They will also be able to compete in a number of special challenges in various popular PlayStation Studios titles. The highlight of the evening will be a watch party for the Nerd Commander Show from Xperion Hamburg, featuring Maxim and members of PietSmiet and Rocket Beans, among others. The Berlin watch party will be integrated into the Hamburg show via a live feed. On Saturday 29 November, creator Amar will be providing entertainment in Fortnite with the finale of a special PS5 edition of his popular format, "Rasieren oder Kassieren" (Shave or Cash).
