When Xbox announced that some of its games would be coming to PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 (Sea of Thieves or Hi-Fi Rush, among others)<\/a>, the gaming industry trembled with a clear message: the era of exclusivity is over, it’s time for cross-platform games.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

And alongside Xbox, many of us were hoping that Sony would take the same direction<\/strong>, especially considering the policy of the Japanese company in the last four years, in which they have been releasing some of their great PS4 and PS5 games on PC. Now, the new CEO of the PlayStation division<\/a> has clarified the future of the brand a bit and has left us quite confused.<\/p>\n\n\n

The senior vice president and head of PlayStation Studios, Hermen Hulst, who will be appointed co-CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment, has revealed that in the future PlayStation will release games as a service on PlayStation 5 and PC.<\/strong> Just like it happened with Helldivers 2.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Indeed, we are going to bring our titles to the PC platform and we have a dual approach,” Hulst said. “Regarding games as a service, we will release our titles simultaneously, that is, on the same day and at the same time on PlayStation 5 and PC,” he explains. We can deduce that they will do the same with their beloved Destiny, now that they have acquired Bungie.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
