Variety:

Sony Interactive Entertainment, currently riding high on record sales of its PlayStation 4 gaming console won’t be hosting its annual press conference or showing up at all during next year’s massive E3 expo.

The news was buried inside the Entertainment Software Association’s announcement of the 2019 show that quoted competitors Nintendo and Microsoft.

Between this and Sony dropping their PlayStation Experience event, I wonder - are Sony resting on their laurels and aiming with the idea that good games will win out over hyped press conferences, or is there something going on behind the scenes where they can’t support these sorts of events?
