More PlayStation games are coming to PC, but Sony is continuing to “look at the right times to release each game.” That’s according to Hermen Hulst, the Head of PlayStation Studios, who made the comments in Q&A session posted on the PlayStation Blog.
“I want to emphasize that PlayStation will remain the best place to play our PlayStation Studios titles at launch,” Hulst said. “But we do value PC gamers, and we’ll continue to look at the right times to launch each game. Bend Studio just released the PC version of Days Gone on May 18. So that’s about two years after the PS4 release.”
That said, however, consoles are still the core of the PlayStation business. “I hope that a new set of fans can and will enjoy that title. And that’s the goal — we want to reach new gamers who haven’t yet experienced the great stories, characters, and worlds that we’ve built. Releasing games on PC will not come ever at the expense of building an exciting lineup of great console games.”
It’s a fair outlook, given that Sony is primarily a console manufacturer and publisher, but it’s nice to know that PC players will still be able to experience Sony’s games on PC, even if they have to wait a while to do it. Sony’s most recent PC release is Days Gone, and Sony Bend did an excellent job of porting it. Next in line is Uncharted 4.
