Yet nobody is playing playstation games anymore. They play all the multi-platform games. Sony spend 5 billion dollars on their GAAS initiative and it all flopped except Hell Divers 2 which is coming to Xbox... Sony also is being controlled by their share holders. They see how much money Microsoft is making off of Xbox multiplatform strategy. Expect all Playstation games on Xbox, Switch and PC day and date in the future. Sony playstation fans will continue to buy Sony consoles so it won't impact them at all.

Why such a definitive statement for a metric as fluid as engagement? 

You do realize SpiderMan 2, Helldivers 2, Astro Bot, MLB, God of War Ragnarok, have all charted on the most played charts for PlayStation platforms, since it has been tracked by NPD in 2023? Death Stranding 2 and Ghost of Yotei will also chart in the most played chart for their launch periods. Are you trying to argue that no PlayStation first party game will chart in engagement metrics again? Not to mention actual first party game sales or their back catalog driving PS+ Premium tiers. How is one month of MAU worth more than all of that? 

And where exactly are you getting the 5B+ figure from? Making up figures is just silly when you want to ignore data that is available. Besides that, MLB alone will generate billions in revenue. Sony also spoke to their shareholders just a few months ago about how they treat multiplatform releases. Lets see what they in their upcoming financial call. Its better than you just pulling fantasy figures and pretending MLB and GT7 don't exist lol. 

Those games charted for a short while except Hell Divers 2 on Steam. The games you see in the link are always at the top. That is why Sony is porting their games to other platforms. They need the money after their recent failures. MLB is a license game so it doesn't make that much money. That is why it is also on Xbox and Switch.
