It’s still not all that easy to get one of the coveted ones Get hold of PlayStation 5 consoles. While the current bottlenecks are likely to continue for a while, Sony already has plans to stop making first-party games for the PlayStation 4 within the next three years. This goes from the last Company’s business briefing.

No more new games for PlayStation 4
Noticeably, the PlayStation 4 does not feature on the chart, suggesting that no new games will be released for the aging console at this point. What is interesting, however, is that Sony’s strategy has changed a bit over the last few years. For example, in fiscal 2019, 90 percent of the company’s first-party titles were available for PS4 and 10 percent for PC. So Sony would like to expand its platform variety a little over the next few years.
Sony wanted to because of the lack of PlayStation 5 consoles boost PS4 productionbut unfortunately their sales are currently at an all-time low. Also, some games have already announced that they want to completely forgo a version for the PlayStation 4, including the forthcoming one Gotham Knights. However, at the proud age of ten in November next year, the console has well earned its retirement.
As can also be seen from the briefing, Sony intends to rely significantly more on the PC in the future. The company has already released some blockbuster titles such as Horizon Zero Dawn and God of War on the platform, and recently we also got a leak that the quite popular one title Returnal could also appear for the PC. One can only hope that Bloodborne will eventually give up its PlayStation exclusivity so that PC players can also enjoy the title.
