Sony locks its narrative PS5 games to PlayStation, dropping PC ports
TL;DR Summary
Sony reportedly told staff that its narrative single-player PS5 games will remain PlayStation-exclusive with no PC ports, a shift Bloomberg cites to Hermen Hulst and company-wide communications. The move aims to boost PS5 sales and protect the PlayStation brand, potentially affecting titles like Marvel's Wolverine and Intergalactic: The Heretic Project, while some games (e.g., Scars of Kosmora) may still release on PC and multiplayer titles appear unaffected. An official public confirmation hasn’t been issued, with announcements expected at summer events.
