Earlier this week, veteran gaming journalist Jason Schreier appeared on the Triple Click<\/a> podcast (via Resetera<\/a>) and reported that Sony PlayStation may be stopping releases of its signature major single-player titles on PC.<\/p>\n

Schreier said: \u201cI think for them, their strategy is like, live service games are coming to PC. But I think the sense I\u2019m getting is that they\u2019re backing away from putting their exclusive console stuff like traditional single-player stuff on PC.\u201d<\/p>\n

Asked about the upcoming \u201cMarvel\u2019s Wolverine\u201d game from Insomniac Games, he said he \u201cwouldn\u2019t be surprised if it never came to PC, but even if it does, you have a strong idea of what that is, and that you need a PlayStation to play it, at least for the indefinite future.\u201d<\/p>\n

Now, scooper NateTheHate2 has also weighed in, saying on X<\/a>: \u201cYou\u2019ll be seeing fewer single-player games arrive on PC. The decision to shift away from supporting PC was made last year. Naturally, some may still release (pending how far along the ports were), but it no longer appears to be a priority for Sony moving forward.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cDeath Stranding 2: On the Beach,\u201d which was a PS5 exclusive for nine months, is expected to launch for PC on March 19th but that hails from an external studio \u2013 not a Sony internal one. <\/p>\n

PlayStation\u2019s single-player titles on PC have been met with mixed success. Some of its earliest titles, like \u201cHorizon: Zero Dawn,\u201d \u201cGod of War,\u201d \u201cMarvel\u2019s Spider-Man\u201d, \u201cGhost of Tsushima\u201d and \u201cStellar Blade\u201d found strong success on the platform.<\/p>\n

Even then, sales for PC are only a small fraction of what they were on console. The one title that did break through and proved a major hit across all platforms was live service title \u201cHelldivers 2\u201d.<\/p>\n

If the claims are true, the move leaves a bunch of major PS5 & PS4 exclusives off the table in regards to hitting PC including Game of the Year winner \u201cAstro Bot,\u201d last year\u2019s \u201cGhost of Yotei,\u201d the upcoming \u201cGod of War\u201d trilogy remake, \u201cUncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection,\u201d \u201cGran Turismo 7,\u201d \u201cInfamous: Second Son,\u201d \u201cDemon\u2019s Souls,\u201d \u201cShadow of the Colossus,\u201d \u201cGravity Rush,\u201d \u201cRatchet & Clank\u201d and \u201cBloodborne\u201d of course.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Guerrilla Games, Sony Interactive Ent.
