| DragonRouge said: It's possible that more PC ports are comming, but I wouldn't call it a certainty. Sony might be porting their most popular PS4 games to PC as a tactic to get more PS5 sales from the PC crowd. If thair intention was just to get more software sales from PC, they would be releasing their PS5 games on PC as well. |
I mean, they're technically starting to do that. The Uncharted Legacy of Thieves collection may be PS4 original games, but this remastered collection will only be for PS5 and PC.
Plus, with Sony looking to hire someone to further expand and manage their PC portfolio, definitely makes it seem obvious that their PC ambitions are just getting started. It takes time to port games to PC. A developer at Jetpack Interactive talked about how he had been playing God of War on mouse n keyboard for 2 years. Now that doesn't mean it took just 2 years to port the game. That's just how long it was in a playable state for with an unknown timeline prior to that milestone.
My viewpoint is that once Sony reaches a good number of older first party releases on PC, that's when we'll see either 6 months to a year delay before a brand new PS5 game gets ported. Most of Sony's games are one time purchases. Once sales have gotten to a snails pace on console, the game then gets ported to PC, and suddenly an older title is making bank again.
