Alleged insider comments suggest that PlayStation may be re-evaluating its future video game launch strategies for PC platforms.
Players have long debated the topic of multiplatform gaming, more often than not focusing on multi-console launches, but the matter of games releasing simultaneously on console and PC has once again raised eyebrows following an alleged insider comment on PlayStation potentially „pulling back“ from the platform. PlayStation has been known to keep many of its first-party IPs limited to its own consoles, though more recent releases have been timed exclusives that later found their way to other platforms. However, the Sony-owned gaming giant may once again be shifting its focus away from PCs.
The speculation follows Valve’s recent announcement of the upcoming Steam Machine gaming console. Fans and analysts have subsequently begun debating the „return of the console wars“, despite many questioning if the Steam Machine will be a true competitor to staple consoles like the PS5 and Xbox Series X.
