Sony confirmed that it has ten live-service games in the works and that it's aiming to launch them all by March 2026. Part of this plan ties into the recently 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:acquired Destiny 2 developer Bungie who will help other 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:PlayStation Studios to learn how to build a൲ long-term project that can stay pro🐓fitable for years.
The company revealed its plans during a recent earnings call. Chief financial officer Hiroki Totoki said Bungie already has a "major new IP" in development, presumably a new live-service multi-platform title coming in the next few years. The company will use the studio's experience to pave the way for its other first-party developers: "Our studios will learn from Bungie, that is a strong wish we have the Bungie side is willing to work closely with us," Totoki said (via ).
It is believed that 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Naughty Dog is working on The Last of Us' multiplayer spin-off, Factions. According to co-president Neil Druckmann, the studio has "168澳洲幸运5开奖网:multiple game projects in the works," so there's a possibility that something else is being developed inside its walls. Maybe a 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:live-service take on Uncharted, too?
Another such title might be the upcoming 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Twisted Metal reboot, which 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:reportedly underwent a major shakeup as Sony changed developers. The game hasn't been officially unveiled yet but Sony's latest attempt at making a car battle royale Destruction AllStars wasn't all that successful, but the niche still needs to be filled. Of course, we should not exclude Sony's numerous collaborations with third-party studios like 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Jade Raymond's studio Haven Entertainment, currently working on a new IP for the PS5.
For years Sony has been associated with cinematic single-player story-driven games, but it seems this is subject to change. More and more big publishers are focusing on live-service models that can generate profit over time rather than in the first few months after launch. Examples such as 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Apex Legends, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Destiny 2, Fortnite, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Genshin Impact, and 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:GTA Online have show💮n that players are more than happy to invest time and money in just a couple of their favorites, indicating we might see even fe🦹wer one-off projects down the line.
