| Chrkeller said: You sure? According to an article I read PC is 1/3 of their software revenue and growing. It generated over $600,000,000 in revenue. And the whole dialing back is a rumor, not confirmed. At the end of the day Sony can do whatever they want, but they will be missing out on millions upon millions of dollars. Sony releasing games a year or two after ps5 doesn't hurt their sales, it helps their bottom line. PC sales now account for nearly a third of Sony's first-party game revenue | TechSpot edit Also found this via Gamespot: "In total, the report said Sony's five top-selling PC releases on Steam have passed 43 million copies sold collectively. The gross revenue from these sales reportedly amounted to $1.5 billion. This includes $1.2 billion for Sony and Valve's cut of $350 million or more. Valve takes a 30% cut of PC game sales on Steam, falling to 25% after $10 million in revenue and $20% after 50 million."
Sony dropping PC support and assuming PC gamers are going to buy a ps5 is foolish and stupid. Perhaps they do it, but I think people are buying too much into rumors. |
Hmm, I'd be weary of these estimations which is what they are. Lots of guess work here or reports Alinea Analytics being treated like confirmed numbers. For sure though Helldivers is a huge earner on PC and they'll continue to push all live service games to PC day one. Helldivers one also released during a relatively quiet year in regards to single player release so it will also present a more PC skewed revenue balance compared to sonys norm
