Sony might have just outsourced the God of War PC port

Sure, we can't pin the blame on Jetpack since FromSoftware worked on Dark Souls and its PC port, but the fact that it had a hand in such a project and that the studio's lone standalone porting project was bringing Orcs Must Die! Unchained to the PS4 doesn't exactly inspire confidence.

Kratos is Sony's biggest and most important mascot. So, for Sony to give the game's PC port to a support studio comes off as a surprise, especially after Sony had already acquired Nixxes Software earlier this year. If it's any consolation, this would suggest that Nixxes is busy working on something else for Sony and we're hoping that this is indeed the case.

With that said, Sony does deserve the benefit of the doubt. After Horizon Zero Dawn launched on PC with several performance issues, subsequent PC ports such as Days Gone have gone smoothly.

We speculate that Sony is thinking of acquiring Jetpack Interactive. The best way to see if it's worth the money is if it can handle a large undertaking like 2018's God of War. This isn't to say that we don't trust Jetpack; Santa Monica Studio is still overseeing the project, after all. But, considering the magnitude of Sony's next two PC ports, it takes a lot of confidence and courage not to utilize a first-party studio that specializes in PC ports.
