This looks depressing. So, the Sony Group Corp no longer plans to release its big PlayStation 5 games on PC. A major shift of strategy sees the video game maker returning to console exclusivity after six years of flirting with multiple platform releases. According to people familiar with the company's plans, online games such as Marathon and Marvel Token will still be released across multiple platforms with single player titles such as Ghost Yote. No. And the upcoming SARS game remain exclusive PS5. Um, someone in chat also said Wolverine. Is Wolverine going to be PS5 again? A few reasons behind this shift. One is as several uh recent PlayStation games have not sold well on PC. Well, why not still release it anyways? A faction within PlayStation has also expressed concerns that releasing their games on PC risk damaging the conso's brand and will hurt sales on PlayStation 5 and its successors. I can understand the sales part because there are generally people like me who went out to buy a PS5 just to play a Spider-Man game that came out. So, like I I get that part. >> I I think that's the only reason. I think anything else that they could possibly say is just him. >> That's so depressing. I was actually waiting for Ghost of Yote because I was like, "Oh, that would be so sick to play that on PC." We had Ghosts Tsushima looked really good on PC. That Yot game is going to be amazing, but dude, that's I that's a bad decision on their part. They're just trying to make money. Um, this is going to get a lot of backlash for sure. They didn't like people modding Spider-Man 2: Don't care. That is the whole idea behind the gaming community. That is really cool is being able to mod your games. I don't understand developers who yell about people modding their games. They bought your game. They're playing it now. >> They own it. >> They own it. Let them build the community. That's like what the whole Steam Workshop is for and everything. Like Skyrim is a massively popular game because of modding. >> GTA. Sony makes a lot of good singleplayer exclusive games. step painful.
