Sony generated nearly $700M revenue from the release of first party PlayStation titles on PC and other platforms during fiscal year 2023.
If you look at a game like Genshin Impact and it made over $5 Billion in revenue since launch for one game and it doesn’t risk the studio, so it gives an insight into why it’s so desired by Sony to go for that perpetual online game. I don’t think Sony should risk bringing its single player games to other consoles but bringing Hellblazer II to Xbox and Nintendo makes perfect sense.
Cool but then where are the PS5 games Sony? So far only 3rd party studios are lifting the console
@VenomUK
Sony has brought other titles to PC that are single player. And they seem to be doing good all though I still think Sony should have brought the first three Uncharted games to PC as well. Sony is just breathing new life into games that have done well on Playstation such as Uncharted, Horizon, my favorite Days Gone, Spiderman, God of War. Sony will eventually port Ragnarok and Spiderman 2 to PC as well and I think those two games will do well on PC. I don't see PC players bitching about the games Sony has brought over to PC so far. And Helldivers 2 is doing well on PC except for Sony's F up with having a Playstation account. As for Sony putting Helldivers 2 on Xbox who knows if Sony will or won't port it. As for Nintendo you would need the Switch 2 the current Switch can barely handle Arkham Knight. You call it risky but again I don't see PC player bitching about the games that Sony has ported over so far to PC. If anything it introduced players to games they have never played if they just stick to PC and don't want to buy a Playstation that's their choice.
Hellblazer 1 released along the time that God of Flock released, however it was considering very much an Andie budget game, with a top down perspective twin stick shooter that it was. Then he'll blazers 2 released, in all its 3D glory and crossplay madness.
Besides few core fanboys rest gamers understand the huge potential for PlayStation’s games on PC. Same applies for Xbox games on PlayStation. We as gamers may not like it or understand it but there are billions at stake. More money these companies generate the bigger budgets and resources they can allocate for future projects
Yes...it never ceases to amaze me that so many don't understand.
PlayStation games benefit as an added source of revenue. As long as it is released not at the same time as on the console....because if it is...then there's no reason to buy a ps5. This means a loss in their ecosystem and more money lost through each sale on steam.
What you're talking about could push a certain company out of the console side and make them strictly soft gaming company.
I can't be the only one who reconsidered buy their hardware because their games were going to ps5.
Edit: it's one thing for games to go to pc , and a completely different thing for games to go from xbox to ps5. That will stop people from buying a second console.

MS don’t invest 100 billion to make few console warriors happy who would buy the Xbox branded console anyway. They want generate the revenue, which in return will generate more profits end of the day it’s all the spreadsheet and whether we like it or not just selling on Xbox is not going to help them on their spreadsheets
And I completely disagree with you. Why would someone not buy Xbox if their goal is game pass so they will get all those games one on that subscription while other consoles and platforms have to pay full price to pay the same games
The downvotes you’re getting shows how petty the Sony diehards are. Meanwhile Sony just made a good size change and will keep releasing on PC regardless.
Nope. Yeah they made good size change....so did Gabe...that's where most seem to be perfectly content in remaining oblivious to reality.
It's an acceptable strategy if Sony doesn't release day and date. If they start doing that...those diehards would probably end up skipping consoles and heading to PC. It's only common sense.
Yes, gamers who can't afford a decent midrange PC or higher will opt for console anyways.
PC players have a choice of better IQ & (usually) performance.
I have seen the port-begging for these games on playstation, including Half-Life Alyx
🤣

There is no need to port beg for that game anymore, now that they are making PS VR2 compatible with PC.
"Port begging " really you guys are weird. Is that what was happening when Starfield came out? I never heard that term when people were "Port begging " for Starfield.
Sony had no first party releases till next year at the earliest. So, you won't have to worry about Port begging. I feel like I'm losing IQ points repeating that term. Smh
Everyone port begs here...
Nintendo fans port begged for years to get persona 5. Xbox fans portbegged for Helldivers 2 and rebirth recently.
Even Phil Spencer got in on the Helldivers 2 exclusivity whining...
https://n4g.com/news/258546...
How many times do you need to be reminded of how average and undesirable Starfield is? No one is port begging that mediocre game
trying to shame people for wanting to play good games, what the fuck even is this?
@SeTTriP
Psychological projection coupled with inferiority complex and brand worship is the ultimate cringe
The revenue would be even higher if the games didn't launch 2 years later and could capitalize on the original launch's ads and hype.
Ghost of Tsushima came out for PC recently and I haven't heard a word about it. If it came out - say, 3 months after the PS5 version - it would sell like mad. In that sense, day and date is needed. Would be cheaper as well if PC versions were developed alongside the original games rather than outsourcing hit-or-miss port jobs later.
That's where you're entirely wrong. The revenue wouldn't be as big. It would be offset by all the players just sticking to PC instead of bothering with buying anything on console....
Then sure....more sales on PC but steam takes a huge chunk whereas by leaving them on the console for a few years it forces players to buy in songs ecosystem which also gets them the most money.
EA Sports prepares to launch College Football 25 in July. However, there is a surprising development - the game will not be coming to the PC platform
This just saved me $60. Nice!
Real talk, im sure the game will be A$$, its almost a guarantee for anything EA releases anymore.
It's not worth it to release on PC day 1. The technical nightmare juice isn't worth the squeeze.
You can clear your wanted levels in Star Wars Outlaws by defeating the death troopers.
I remember the same thing in Assassin's Creed Odyssey, Ubisoft sure love to copy paste stuff in their games.
I just figured out where they got the extra A to make AAAA games, they copy and pasted an extra A 😂
The mc looks so bland, she needs a cooler outfit and hair or maybe allow people to play as the awesome robot with the duster coat
We talking bland like Luke Skywalker or bland like Han Solo? Human characters in Star Wars have always been bland and the scale ranges from kid in bathrobe with shaggy hair to generic male with awesome sidekick and ship.
Ridiculous, young harrison ford was extremely hot and charismatic, han solo basically created or at least heavily influenced the charming rogue trope.
"Han Solo basically created or at least heavily influenced the charming rogue trope." I'm sure Robin Hood and Zorro will thank Jennifer Lawrence - I MEAN HARRISON FORD - for paving the way.
Disney cannot ever make a main character without a pet following their ass, this formula needs to change.
How is this a deal? This is an honest question.
That game is not worth $140.
