PlayStation Studios games have been coming to PC, Steam Deck and PS5 for some time now under two mechanics: your solo adventures first on consoles and then on Steam.
Meanwhile, the games as a service or focused on multiplayer debut in both at the same time. According to a new rumor, that’s about to change.
As we read by Jez Corden, the journalist says he heard about a “very good font“that PlayStation no longer wants to focus so much on PC in terms of single-player stories.

This handheld device is the closest thing to a portable console that Sony has right now, and it comes at a reduced price.
Corden makes it clear that Steam is so popular because it’s easier to go viral thank you to your users and “It would be logical to think that PlayStation would want to take advantage of this, right?
Make your franchises more viral by being on Steam and a larger platform“, but now we’ve just heard from this source that they may be considering shelving it.
“I heard from a very reliable source that PlayStation may be leaving PC and that the crossbuy buttons and PlayStation/PC icons are from old, obsolete versions that will never be used.“, those that appeared recently.
Corden makes it clear that he doesn’t actively research what PlayStation does, but that sometimes “I accidentally receive information when searching for Microsoft stuff for my current line of work“.
He also goes on to say that “the games that PlayStation released for PC had no use for them. Partly because they were released too late…“and maybe even”continue with a more Nintendo-like approach“in terms of exclusivity.
Now, let’s be clear that these are the plans for games like Ghost of Yotei and the future Marvel’s Wolverinebut nothing but games like these.

“Except games as a service (…) But I think these types of famous games like Yotei and so on. They may not be released on PC or we may see them years later“.
Sony has nurtured the PC gaming market with titles such as God of War, Marvel’s Spider-Man, Horizon Forbidden West and Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut.
Another success like Helldivers 2 would help them understand the market better, especially to see if they will continue with their strategy or exit. confirms the rumor that Corden claims.
