PlayStation wants half of its games on PC and mobile by 2025

This week, Sony held its annual Investor Day event, giving us a sneak peek at the company's future plans. As the new console generation continues, Sony will be ramping up its multi-platform efforts, including plans to have roughly half of its releases heading to PC or mobile by 2025. 

During the event, PlayStation head, Jim Ryan, explained that investing in PC and mobile should lead to “significant growth” in PlayStation's overall player base. The presentation also showed that Sony has made roughly $300 million USD on the PC platform so far, thanks to the re-releases of Horizon Zero Dawn, Days Gone and God of War.

There are already a few more major PC releases planned. Currently, we expect to see Uncharted on PC in June, and new evidence suggests we may also see Returnal heading to PC before the end of this year.

As pointed out by VGC, Jim Ryan said that the new multi-platform approach would enable Sony to be present “pretty much everywhere”, rather than being limited to “a very narrow segment of the overall gaming software market”. By 2025, Sony hopes to have half of its games also on PC and mobile, rather than just PlayStation.

KitGuru Says: While Sony is looking to have more of its releases on PC and mobile, it is worth noting that the company has not said anything about day-one games. So any titles making their way off of PlayStation will be older games, as we've seen with the company's PC releases so far.
