Sony wants to expand "PlayStation Studios games beyond PlayStation hardware" — hiring to partner with Xbox, Steam, Nintendo Switch, and more


Sony is following Microsoft's multiplatform strategy, looking to acquire a bigger third-party publishing footprint across PC and even rival consoles.

The language in the listing suggests that PlayStation is ready to expand even more of its first-party titles, such as God of War, The Last of Us, and Horizon, over to competing platforms — including Steam, and Xbox itself. The successful applicant will lead a team that includes senior managers involved in liaising directly with Xbox and Windows PC platforms, like Steam and the Epic Games Store, to build sales and relationships. This role is accountable for optimizing title profitability, ensuring cross-functional alignment, and leading a high-performing team focused on multiplatform expansion, mid-range commercial planning, and platform partner management."
