Sony wants its PlayStation exclusives to come to PC earlier

Sony may soon launch PC versions of first-party PlayStation games earlier than expected. Company president Hiroki Totoki suggested he wants PlayStation to go “aggressive on improving our margin performance,” with “multi-platform” games playing a significant role.

Company president Hiroki Totoki suggested in a post-earnings call Q&A session Wednesday ( via VGC) that he wants PlayStation to go “aggressive on improving our margin performance,” with “multi-platform” games playing a significant role. It isn’t clear if Totoki meant we can expect future PlayStation tentpoles like the upcoming Wolverine game or the ever-popular Spider-Man, God of War or various Naughty Dog franchises to appear on PC on the same day as console. But a strategy shift is underway regardless, and Totoki will have the leverage to put the plan into action: He takes over for Jim Ryan as interim CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment in April.
