Forums - Gaming Discussion - Jason Schreier: Sony's Horizon coming to PC later this year

the sequel will be PS5 only for 4 years...so they made this so that the sequel sells a lot at launch.



I see my hold-on decision on PS5 is more and more justfied.
Actually, I prefer them to release all stuff day1 like MS is doing, at least i will save some money.

Horizon Zero Dawn is already available on PSNOW to stream, so this can only be talking about an actual native PC release.

Yeah, that's why I was wondering as to why he did not specifically mentioned the previous article and info, to make it crystal clear. I know you understand this, but I didn't. 



Step right up come on in, feel the buzz in your veins, I'm like an chemical electrical right into your brain and I'm the one who killed the Radio, soon you'll all see

So pay up motherfuckers you belong to "V"

I dunno. The business decision behind this is both sound and not. Definitely opens their user base, though places questions on 3rd party exclusives and could affect the PS hardware brand.
Curious to see how Sony goes about this wth their more important IP, if this true.

the sequel will be PS5 only for 3+ years. So this is to make people hyped about the PS5.  If they enjoy PS games, they wont wait for 3+ years to play the sequel and will buy a PS5.  



Well that sinks it for me. I won't be buying a PS5 since all the exclusives are likely coming to PC, even if it is 2-3 years later. Other PS titles have come to PC, but not titles that Sony fully owned. This is a huge change for the company, and signals that they are going to go the MS route of not caring how many consoles they sell, and just pushing services.

This is pretty sad, because consoles had at least one or two more good generations in them. With both Sony and MS pretty much waving the white flag to streaming, and PC, it's a foregone conclusion that PS5 + XB1SX won't sell a combined 115 million units.

Modern Non-Nintendo game consoles are basically little more than machines for casuals now. There's absolutely no reason to buy a Sony or MS next gen console. PC is just better.

As iv been stating many times. Sometimes companies have to take a hit with console hardware to gain a bigger audience and profits. Brands wont do this if that wasnt the case. MS saw the light many years ago.



Sounds like a good move if they indeed plan to release Horizon 2 close to PS5 launch. I'm guessing that at least.



Its not the worst move for the PS brand, considering Sony is already putting high profile PS4 exclusives on PS Now, and the generation is winding down.



Is this via the Sony digital store?
