Souls type games do well on PC platform as well.
I don't see why they wouldn't keep allowing that.

Well to be fair I don't think PC has much to worry about beyond having to wait up to a year for the games to come over. It's Xbox who will suffer here and possibly Nintendo Switch 2. It's not about how well the games sell it's about enticing users to come over to your ecosystem which is Sony's main goal to get people on their console. 

Think about it you're telling me Elden Ring 2 is just something Sony is going to allow to be sold everywhere? There's no way they don't make it exclusive at least timed to try and entice people over to their ecosystem. I know MS has given up on that strategy and is just focused on game sales but Sony still wants people on their console.

Yes.... Sony will want it to still sell like 15million copies.
Not everyone is a soulborns fan, and most won't be willing to come over (there are die hard nintendo and pc fans, that would never).
It might not be worth it, makeing it exclusive.
