Sony Shuts Bluepoint Amid Mounting Costs and Shifting Player Habits
Sony’s Herman Hulst says rising development costs, slower industry growth, changing player behavior, and broader economic headwinds led to Bluepoint Games’ closure, with the studio set to shut down in March. Sony will try to reassign some laid-off staff within its studio network, while noting Bluepoint’s past work on the Demon's Souls remake and other successful PlayStation projects.
