Forums - Sony - Sony won't be doing PC ports for big single player games anymore

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-03-04/sony-pulls-back-from-playstation-games-on-pc

It's a Jason article, so it's pretty much 100% confirmed.

He had already talked about it but now he published the actual article.

Even games like Ghost of Yotei that were once planned won't be making it anymore.

Second party games like Death Stranding and live service games like Marathon and Tokon are still going to be made available on PC, but single player first party games like Saros and Wolverine won't be ported anymore.

So here it is, Sony is back fully focusing on the Playstation from now on.

Good! As it should be.



Sony is losing money from me. I have no interest in consoles. I guess I won't be buying Yotei, Astro, etc.

I won't be giving up 120 fps.  Plus, I am tired of paying for online, so I won't be getting a ps6 moving forward.  And there is no doubt my rig will outclass the ps6, perhaps even by a good margin.

I don't blame Sony for making decisions that need to be made, but if this pans out true, they have lost at least one consumer.  Might grab what PC games they have now, sooner than later.  Just in case they remove them.  

My best guess is this will be a major mistake by Sony.  I am not convinced console gamers (at least most) are looking to jump to PC.  And I don't think MS's only problem is games.  I think it is much deeper than that.

They probably saw what happened to Xbox and thought: No, not us!
You might get a lot of money in the short term, but if you are essentially just making yourself and your brand obsolete, is it worth it? Selling hardware may not be super profitable anymore, but the additional benefits of owning one of three (Switch, PS, PC) relevant platforms should never be underestimated. Exclusives justify the platform.



Probably a mistake given 50% of Capcom sales are on PC, but hey it's not my money I don't think I have any Sony stock beyond what's in etfs.

I'm sad for you.

Definitely a valid choice to not have another system, but those games are great.

Exactly this. I literally sold my PS5 not too long ago to purchase a PC, but even I recognize the importance in stacking value on your platform with exclusives. Console exclusivity is meaningless now that it’s just Switch 2 v PS5– what matters now is exclusivity… period.

If I see a game I want, I’m renting a PS5 for a month and borrowing a copy of the game from a nearby library. But if Sony pumps out a lot of banger exclusives, then maybe renting will turn into purchasing a system.

Absolutely, and I will most certainly miss out on same great titles.  Sony makes excellent games, they really do.  But part of it is I can't find the time to play the games I want anyway, so I have accepted missing out on a few anyway.  Heck I still haven't played RE9, Baldur's Gate, Monster Hunter, etc.  If I were hurting for quality games, my interest/position would change.

What does Capcom have to do with it? Those Sony games surely aren't selling nowhere near close to 50% on PC.

And they also have PSN subs to sell to people on PS5, PC wasn't making much money compared to PS5 at all.

Is that 50% of revenue or 50% of units sold?

PC is less profitable for Sony than selling it within their own eco system, pocketing all the money. Also less costly to develop for one system than QA for different PC configurations.

Sure, they'll lose some money not releasing on PC, yet also save on production costs and maximize profit on console sales where they can keep the price higher.
