It's hard to keep track of what studio does what within the Japan studios but has a whole they release an average of 3-4 games a year. So far no released games in 2015, have 4 announced projects in the works (including TLG) and haven't released a console game since Knack in 2013.

Japan Studios have a very stroung chance of releasing a game(s) this year. Gravity Rush 2, Tomorrow Children or Deep Down could all make it. Gravity Rush 2 could also make it onto a home console this time.
Polyphony could release GT7 this year after Yamauchi said on 2 occasions that the release date should be before 2016. GT6 was officially revealed 7 months before launch so theres a chance. There are also rumors that the next GT will be called Gran Turismo Sport. Suggesting a spin off (similar to Forza) that could alternate releases with the main franchise (similar to Forza).
Bend could announce and release their project this year. It's been 3 years since their last game and a lot of people are hoping for Syphon Filter 4.
No chance of Naughty Dog releasing a game this Year. They have 2 teams and with UC4 having a 2016 release date, I can't see the second team even revealing their project (probably TLOU2) until UC4 is done and dusted.
Good chance of seeing another game this year from San Diego Studios. 3 titles with rough release dates of 2015. Kill Strain, Drawn to Death and Guns Up.
Very little chance of seeing a Santa Monica game this year other than the GoW III remastered and various colabs they are working on. The main GoW games release every 3 years, making GoW IV a possible 2016 release.
No Sucker Punch game this year. Only 1 year into their usually 2-3 year game cycle
We could see a game from PixelOpus. They are a small team but work on small games. Entwined was announced and released the same day. Something similar is possible.
London Studios could release a game this year although they might be caught up in working on something for Project Morpheus like their already made Street Luge VR demo. Singstar or Dancestar are possibilities for a 2015 release.
No Evolution game this year. 2016/2017 will more than likely be their next release
Guerrilla Games have a good chance of releasing a game this year. It's been 2 years since last game and they seem to have got to grips with the PS4 quite easily. Is it possible that their second team will manage to keep their secret project under wraps, announce and release it this year? Plus they typically release a KZ every 2 years and it's been 2 years. Will they release something this year?
Guerrilla Cambridge have a strong chance of releasing a game this year. Their name change suggest that they will work on Killzone spinoffs and ports. They are working on a PS4 game and my guess would be it's Killzone 1,2 & 3 remastered.
Media Molecule will not annouced another release this year. Since the Tearaway PS4 game would take up little resources, I expect their unannounced PS4 game to be released next year.
