Sony reportedly won\u2019t release its major single-player PlayStation games on PC anymore. According to Bloomberg<\/em>\u2019s Jason Schreier, Hermen Hulst, who heads up PlayStation\u2019s studios business, informed employees<\/a> in a town hall on Monday about the change in strategy. Schreier had previously reported on the shift in March<\/a>, saying that Sony scrapped plans to launch PC versions of last year\u2019s Ghost of Y\u014dtei<\/em> and \u201cother internally developed games.\u201d Online games will still come to multiple platforms following this change in strategy, Schreier reported at the time.<\/p>\n

In recent years, Sony has released many of its biggest games on PC, including Spider-Man 2<\/em><\/a>, Ghost of Tsushima<\/em><\/a>, both The Last of Us<\/em><\/a> games<\/a>, Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered<\/em><\/a>, and multiplayer titles like Helldivers 2<\/em><\/a> and Marathon<\/em><\/a>. Two years ago, Hulst committed to<\/a> releasing PlayStation\u2019s live-service games \u201cday and date\u201d on PC and PS5, but its single-player PC releases have been less consistent, with Hulst saying that the company takes a \u201cmore strategic approach.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sony may not be the only one to go back to exclusives; Asha Sharma, Microsoft\u2019s new Xbox chief, told staff<\/a> that she is \u201creevaluating\u201d exclusive games for the platform.<\/p>\n
