Stay on top of all our E3 2013 coverage here.

Sony is holding its press briefing at the 2013 Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) starting at 6 p.m. PST today.

The whole world will be watching what happens at E3, the big gaming trade show that should draw 45,000 to 50,000 game-industry professionals this week in Los Angeles.

We’re expecting to hear more details about Sony’s upcoming PlayStation 4 console, coming this fall. GamesBeat staff will liveblog the event in real time on this page, so please be sure to come back later for commentary on the event.

Sony first announced the PlayStation 4 in February and showed off a bunch of new titles, from a new Killzone game to Knack from renowned developer Mark Cerny.

Hopefully, the company will show a real box this time. We’re expecting to hear more about a launch date or launch window today as well, but we might not see a price on the machine until later. Please add your own comments as you watch the event.

Here’s the livestream:
