We have been invited to "see the future". A PlayStation announcement is set to take place at 6 p.m. Eastern on Wednesday, February 20.

A post and video (posted below) on the official PlayStation Blog invites fans to "see the future" at an event set for February 20 at 6pm EST. A website has also been launched by Sony which includes the tagline "be the first to know".

We have the slightest feeling that this event may mark the official announcement which we have previously reported on. Which would back up our calls on how the next-gen console may be announced before E3.

A similar event hosted by Sony back in 2011 saw Sony announce the PS Vita, so who knows what will happen with this one?
