“Things could change quickly in this segment.”
In markets where cloud computing is not available, another plan called the PlayStation Plus Deluxe will be offered at a lower price. In addition to the basic and additional level benefits, this offer will provide an old PlayStation game directory, PS2 and PSP to download, as well as a limited time trial version of the game. “We also plan to expand the benefits of cloud computing to other markets.“, we can also read, knowing that PlayStation is now available in the following countries: United States, Canada, Japan, United Kingdom, France, Germany, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Austria, Switzerland, Ireland, Spain, Italy, Portugal , Norway, Denmark, Finland and Sweden.
“We’ve put together over 50 million registration numbers now, and we’re excited about that. It’s a good number But I really believe we can do better in the way we provide these services to our players and customers. For example, 75% of those who join PlayStation Now are also PlayStation Plus customers. I believe we need to do better for these people. That is one example“, said Jim Ryan, chief executive of entertainment at Sony Interactive Entertainment, in a prepared interview with the gaming industry.
The manager was clearly entitled to the question of home game integration from the day the registration was released, a revolution launched by Microsoft and Game Pass. And the answer is still negative, even though it is very open. For Ryan, adding a home-grown product to the client ”would break the smooth cycle“can affect”the level of investment we need in our studio“To the extent that it affects the quality of the games. That said, the General Manager is aware that the truth one day is not the next, the proof of this is the release of the prestigious PC.
“As the world has changed so fast now, nothing ever has happened. Who would have thought, four years ago, that AAA headlines on PlayStation would be released on PC? We started last year with Horizon Zero Dawn, then Days Gone, and now God of War – the PC version of that game that was very bright and well-lit. is. I look back four years and I think no one would see this coming“, He admitted.
“So I don’t want to put anything in this place. The only thing I am talking about today is the approach we will take in the short term. Compared to the way our editors currently work, this does not make sense. But things can change very quickly in these industries, as we all know.“
