PlayStation reportedly confirms end of PC support for major single-player games as CEO commits to console exclusivity

Hermen Hulst, CEO of PlayStation Studios, confirmed that major narrative-driven titles from PlayStation studios will be exclusive to the PlayStation platform. This indicates a shift in Sony's strategy, favoring exclusivity for flagship single-player intellectual properties. While some titles like Horizon Hunters Gathering may still release on both PC and PlayStation, major studio productions will likely be exclusive. Notable exceptions include Helldivers 2, which will launch on Xbox, and the PS5 shooter Saros, which will not be available on PC. Upcoming title Kena: Scars of Kosmora will be published on Steam and the Epic Games Store, while also being listed under Sony Interactive Entertainment on the PlayStation Store. The multiplayer game Horizon Hunters Gathering is expected to launch on PC, but future mainline entries in the Horizon series featuring protagonist Aloy are unlikely to see a PC release. Titles like Ghost of Yotei and Marvel's Wolverine are expected to remain exclusive to PlayStation.

High-octane FPS Deadzone Rogue responds to sudden sequel controversy: “DLC limits how much we can experiment”

Deadzone Rogue 2 is a sequel to the original game launched in August 2025, and a demo for the sequel is set to be released soon, but the full game will not be available for some time. Prophecy Games has clarified that they are following a similar development cycle as the first installment, which took about a year from announcement to launch. The studio decided against creating downloadable content (DLC) for the original game to avoid limiting innovation and to prevent player base fragmentation in co-op scenarios. Instead, they aim to introduce new ideas in the sequel, such as a broader cast of characters and enhanced gameplay mechanics. The demo will be free and is intended to allow for experimentation and feedback. The sequel is expected to be priced similarly to the original, with optional cosmetic DLC available.
