The current chairman ofSonyhas revealed that the company plans to “proactively” work on multiplatform releases as part of an “aggressive” growth plan.
During Sony’s latestearnings report, chairman Hiroki Totoki discussed the company’s ongoing efforts to make more of PlayStation’s first-party titles available across multiple platforms. As highlighted byEurogamer, the CEO said: “In the past, as you all know, we wanted to popularise [our] console, and the first-party title’s main purpose was to make the console popular.”
The chairman continues: “It is true but there is a synergy to it. So if you have strong first-party content, not only with our console but also other platforms like computers, a first party can be grown with multiplatform - and that can help operating profit to improve. So that is another one we want to proactively work on.”
Totoki also said thePS5 is already entering “its latter stage of life cycle,“which, as unbelievable as it may seem, sounds about right considering it’s been out for almost four years now. Finally, the CEO also said thatPlayStation’s studios are full of “great creative minds” but need to understand business better.

After studying Film Studies and Creative Writing at university, I was lucky enough to land a job as an intern at Player Two PR where I helped to release a number of indie titles. I then got even luckier when I became a Trainee News Writer at GamesRadar+ before being promoted to a fully-fledged News Writer after a year and a half of training. My expertise lies in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, cozy indies, and The Last of Us, but especially in the Kingdom Hearts series. I’m also known to write about the odd Korean drama for the Entertainment team every now and then.
I’ve waited 8 years for American Truck Simulator to recreate my hometown and I wasn’t prepared to see the 200-year-old tree my entire university mourned brought back to life
