Sony reportedly pulls back on PC plans, single-player PS5 games to be exclusive again

In recent years, Sony has been pushing a multi-platform release strategy, bringing most of its single-player games to PC a year or so after the initial PS5 launch. As it turns out, Sony is now pumping the brakes on this, with no plans to bring over titles like Marvel's Wolverine, Saros, or Ghost of Yotei.

According to Bloomberg's Jason Schreier, Sony has made the decision to pull back on its PC release strategy. While multiplayer titles will likely continue to be multiplatform, the studio may no longer bring all of its single-player games to PC. This is despite the recent news that the God of War games made over $1 billion on PC alone.

This strategy shift will apparently apply to Saros, the new game from the studio behind Returnal. It will also apparently apply to upcoming games like Marvel's Wolverine or Naughty Dog's Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet.

It is unclear why Sony has decided to pull back on its PC platform push. While not every game released has been a huge hit on PC, most of them have still sold quite well.

KitGuru Says: If PS5 sales were slowing down then I might understand this, but the console is still continuing to sell at a similar pace to the PS4.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
