Sony Clarifies PS5-First Strategy for Major Game Releases
TL;DR Summary
Soon-to-be PlayStation CEO Hermen Hulst explained that Sony will release live service games simultaneously on PS5 and PC, but will take a more strategic approach with single-player, narrative-driven titles to attract PC players to PlayStation consoles for sequels. This strategy aims to expand PlayStation's audience and is similar to their approach with media adaptations like HBO's The Last of Us.
