Overview
- PlayStation Studios chief Hermen Hulst told staff Monday that first‑party narrative single‑player releases will stay on PlayStation consoles, according to Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier.
- Online games will still go multi‑platform, with titles such as Bungie’s Marathon and Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls planned for PC.
- Recent and upcoming single‑player games are now reported to be PS5‑only, including Ghost of Yōtei, Saros, Marvel’s Wolverine, and Naughty Dog’s Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet.
- Multiple outlets cite Bloomberg’s earlier reporting that weak PC sales, concern about eroding the PlayStation brand and hardware pull, and inconsistent port quality and timing drove the shift.
- Sony has not announced the policy publicly, and coverage notes edge cases like the single‑player Kena: Scars of Kosmora that PlayStation Publishing still plans to release on PC.
