Sony wants to release at least two major PS5 exclusives a year

the sony revealed that PlayStation Studios is planning to release “two or more” major PS5 games a year from now on. Among these titles will be established franchises and new IPs, both single player and game-as-a-service experiences.

As reported by Sony, it wants to cover “all major genres”, but especially highlighted RPGs, shooters, racing, platform, action, and sports.

In addition, the company wants to expand further into other platforms in order to “growing the audience”, with recent examples being its initiatives on PC and smartphones. Sony highlighted the two platforms along with music, books, PlayStation Productions (films and series) and even theme parks.

Nintendo is seeing success with its Super Nintendo World parks in Japan and the US, and now there are an Uncharted roller coaster about to open in PortAventura World in Spain. For Sony, that means “driving audience growth and diversity” and “leveraging Sony’s synergy to unlock new audience growth.”

Hermen Hulst, head of PlayStation Studios, said that Sony currently has 12 games as a service in development, and that by fiscal 2025 that model will account for 60% of PS5 games, with the remaining 40% being traditional single player experiences. Guerrilla Games, Haven Studio, and Firewalk Studios are cited as some of the developers currently working on games as services.
