You will literally never hear Sony say "we're not going to release games on PC any more".


The fact that they didn't deny the reports when they've denied countless others in the past tells us all we need to know.

Stock holders will probably ask the question. I went ahead and asked AI to generate an accurate answer.

While we certainly appreciate the underlying intent and the strategic perspective driving this inquiry, we must currently prioritize the stabilization of our existing operational framework and the rigorous stewardship of our core mission-critical objectives. After a comprehensive cross-functional evaluation of the proposed alignment, it has been determined that the suggested course of action does not sufficiently converge with our prioritized roadmap or the immediate exigencies of our high-level resource allocation strategy. Consequently, in the interest of maintaining optimal organizational synergy and fiscal discipline, we are unable to facilitate a positive progression on this specific front at this juncture.

So much hopium and delusion in this thread, it's fun to watch

Got my ps5 pro so I'm good. I could see wolverine going to pc though but I think Sony will be pulling away from most games unless console sales crater which won't happen.

 

[Tobimacoss]

Sony will definitely release games again on PC, but first their profit margins would need to take a hit from the PS+ revenues. If they were smart, they should've done a proper PC store years ago, that acts as a hub for their Cloud and subscription service.

I hope so, at least you can delete the ugly shit out of that slop on PC.

 

[poodaddy]

I do too, but I think it's gonna be quite a while.

Huh? The leaks that came out about Bluepoint were that a Bloodborne remake is not in development. Sony also didn't come out and deny that.

Yes, they haven't denied any of the 5000 rumors about a Bloodborne remake over the past years. But it sounds like it isnt in the cards does it?

 

[bender]

Nope.

 

[//DEVIL//]

At the end of the day Sony hasn't confirmed or denied in the Bloomberg report Sony denied to comment on it. So everything is speculation. Until I here Sony in their own words say they are done then they are done.

Trying to have faith eh ? Lol

Man if they were not done they would have denied the rumor . Its very clear. Bloomberg is too big and won't be ignored by Sony if this was false rumor.

This is done. .. but you know what..if you wanna keep believing then it's your call lol.

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

Yes, if it fails some success metric.

 

[calico]

If the leak is real they would likely have to pay to get out of releasing on PC. It really depends how intent they are on shooting themselves in the foot with this alleged strategy.

 

[poppabk]

Didn't it release on PC like two years ago?

 

[analog_future]

Randoms talking out of their ass on 4Chan is one thing. One of the most authoritative videogame journalists in the world writing a report about it for fucking Bloomberg is another.

We don't have the full details of the contracts, we only know from the leak that Sony has the rights to release those licenses on PlayStation and PC, not that they're required to put them on PC. Considering how PlayStation's strategy was at the time, it's more likely Sony chose to bring Spider-Man 1 and 2 to PC. And we also know Marvel can't release other X-Men games while that contract is active.

The leak included the related full details of what we need for this case: a PC version was included, a minimum 6M copies in the first year for PS5+PC were required and the penalty for Sony for not achieving it.

Jason Schreier disagrees

Maybe he doesn't know that the leak included two different roadmaps mentioning Venom: one mentioning for 2025 and another one mentioning it for 2027. The Venom document was also a pitch, which means that project could have been greenlighted or not.

The Wolverince case is different because as mentions there already was a signed deal.

He and his propaganda outlet has been multiple times debunked, particularly in this case because of mading out fake news to throw shit to Sony.

No game is exclusive forever. Eventually everything becomes emulated for example. Wolverine PC in 2035 is what your hoping for here?? lol

I'm actually interested to see any development on a future PS5 emulator.

Jason has been known to screw the pooch multiple times even when given "2+" sources and having had retract. Until directly from Sony or lots of others collaborate from different sources its still just a rumor. Probably is true, but really we have heard this from just one person so far. Other than a lot of "I feels" like this could be true. We will find out soon enough.
