Sony to Launch Live-Service Games on PC and PS5 Simultaneously, Single Player Titles Remain PS5-Exclusive
TL;DR Summary
Sony's upcoming co-CEO Herman Hulst announced that live service PlayStation titles will launch on PC the same day as on PS5, starting with Helldivers 2 in 2024. However, single-player narrative games will not follow this model, as Sony aims to entice PC gamers to buy PlayStation consoles for sequels. This strategy highlights Sony's continued focus on hardware sales, contrasting with Xbox's broader cross-platform approach.
