PlayStation has a strong reputation in the gaming industry due to its exclusive titles, including franchises like Uncharted, The Last of Us, Spider-Man, and God of War, which have historically driven console sales. Recently, PlayStation has begun releasing some exclusives on PC, such as Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 and The Last of Us Part 2, while several key titles remain unavailable on this platform. The original Uncharted trilogy is not on PC, despite Uncharted 4 being available. Bloodborne, a PS4 exclusive, has a dedicated fanbase seeking a remaster for PC. The original God of War trilogy is also absent from PC, although newer titles are available. The Infamous series, Shadow of the Colossus, and Demon’s Souls are other notable titles that have not made the transition to PC, with fans hoping for future releases. Astro Bot is considered the least likely to be released on PC, as it serves more as a promotional tool for PlayStation.

Console manufacturers have historically neglected the PC platform as a revenue source. Microsoft has shifted its strategy by releasing games on PC and PlayStation, while Sony has begun to release more PS4 and PS5 titles on Steam, including the successful simultaneous launch of Helldivers 2 on both PS5 and PC. Shuhei Yoshida, a former Sony executive, indicated that he had envisioned bringing Sony games to PC earlier but faced resistance within the company. He noted that releasing games on PC could attract players to buy PlayStations in the future and highlighted the financial benefits of porting games to PC, which is cheaper than creating new titles. Yoshida also emphasized the importance of the Chinese PC gaming market, citing the success of titles like Black Myth: Wukong. He speculated on the absence of Bloodborne on PC and expressed that he would have resisted Sony's shift towards live-service games if possible.

PC gaming has a vast library, but exclusivity still attracts gamers. Several acclaimed games remain unavailable on PC due to various reasons. 1. Castlevania: Symphony of the Night - High odds of being released; originally a PlayStation title, known for its exploration and iconic protagonist. 2. God Hand - Practically none; a 2006 PlayStation 2 exclusive with a unique combat system. 3. Mega Man Legends & Legends 2 - Basically zero; dormant series with a passionate fanbase but poor sales. 4. Silent Hill - Possible, but unlikely; a hallmark of survival horror with no modern platform release yet. 5. Pokémon Conquest - Absolutely not; a Nintendo DS exclusive with ties to Nobunaga's Ambition. 6. The Last Guardian - Not likely, but a chance exists; known for its emotional narrative and visuals. 7. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom - Nintendo doesn’t have to; successful on the Switch, likely to remain exclusive. 8. Super Mario Party Jamboree - Less than zero; relies on motion controls, making a PC adaptation unlikely. 9. Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots - Higher than you might think, but not great; technical challenges hinder potential releases. 10. Bloodborne - Definitely coming soon (maybe, probably not though); ongoing rumors about a potential PC release.

The author owns a PC, Xbox Series S, and Nintendo Switch but does not own a PlayStation 5, despite initially intending to acquire one. They have resisted the urge to buy a PS5 due to the decline of console exclusivity, allowing them to wait for PC releases of titles like Marvel's Spider-Man 2 and Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. Historically, most desired PlayStation titles have eventually become available on other platforms, with the exception of Bloodborne. The gaming industry is shifting away from exclusivity, with titles like Forza Horizon 5 moving to PlayStation and Square Enix releasing games like Octopath Traveler across multiple platforms. The author prefers investing in PC games but acknowledges exceptions like GTA 6, which may be a console exclusive, and Nintendo's unique IPs that can only be accessed through their consoles. The gradual decline of console exclusivity is seen as beneficial for both developers and gamers.
