Sony is pouring billions into new content creation across games, films, and anime in an attempt to discover the next big hit.

From 8 years of development to discontinued in days, Sony's Concord disaster raises questions about the viability of live service games.

Two years following its acquisition, Bungie has had little to show for the amount of money it cost Sony to buy the studio.

Believe it or not, not every best-selling PlayStation exclusive has been remastered, remade, and/or re-released on modern platforms.

They say that all it takes is one live-service game to succeed to justify multiple failures and Sony already has a hit in its first try.

By focusing on profitability, user engagement, and multiplatform opportunities, Sony aims to sustain its position in the gaming industry.

As Sony embraces a more accessible approach, the console wars may evolve into a war of broader offerings and cross-platform capabilities.

Despite the advancing lifecycle of the PS5, Sony is playing it cool on price cuts, focusing instead on making the console worth the cost.

The statement comes after years of reports of Sony's absurd development costs for first-party titles like Marvel's Spider-Man 2.

Fans shouldn't expect to see any sequel, prequel, spin-off, remake, or reboot, of an existing first-party Sony property this year.

After reports of internal turmoil, Sony has confirmed that its live service games won't be arrival until at least 2026.

Phil Spencer, the renowned head of Xbox, offered warm commendations, highlighting Ryan's momentous contributions to the industry.

Jim Ryan's name has been synonymous with the PlayStation brand and while he had his fair share of controversies, his presence will be missed.

Unfortunately, the latest flagship console by Sony still lags behind compared to the PlayStation 4.

If it's any consolation, the console manufacturer isn't saying yes to a PS5 price hike either.
