Sony seems determined to move up a gear on its strategy of porting its PlayStation games to PC. The publisher is looking for a new key position entirely dedicated to its efforts in this market.
The first steps of PlayStation on PC were finally conclusive. So much so that the Japanese firm seems to want to establish itself more openly in this segment, no doubt to prepare for the arrival of its future service games.
PlayStation wants to accelerate its PC strategy
Ports of PlayStation games to PC will intensify. In recent months, Sony’s strategy has paid off. Horizon Zero Dawn, Days Gone or even God of War have all been successful and have managed to find a new audience. Building on this success, the Japanese firm intends to accelerate its implementation on PC.
PlayStation is indeed looking for a commercial director in charge of planning and strategy on PC. The successful candidate will then need to identify the sectors and partnerships conducive to fostering the commercial growth of PS5 and PS4 games on PC. This includes strategic business partners such as Steam and Epic Games. Sony should therefore not tempt fate by creating its own platform and will rely on existing ones.
PC ports that will arrive faster?
His task will not stop there, since the lucky one will have to be able to “ be flexible and open to changing roles and responsibilities based on the changing needs of this business unit as it grows and expands “. And since the question is active players is mentioned directly in the job offer, we imagine that games with a multiplayer connotation will also be there. This strategy is also echoed by the takeover of Bungie, which will help the Japanese giant to develop more multi-platform service games.
In other words, PlayStation has every intention of expanding its PC label. Hopefully, there won’t be many years after the release of Horizon Forbidden West and God of War Ragnarok before they hit the PC. For example, Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection released earlier this year should be available this summer. We bet that this six-month gap will become the new normal and that perhaps expected PS4 and PS5 games, like Bloodborne, will finally arrive on these machines.
