PlayStation exclusive games will release on PC one year later from now on SonyHead of PlayStation Studios, Hermen Hulst, has offered more insight about the company\u2019s release plans on PC for exclusive games. Sony\u2019s history of publishing games on PC is fairly rocky. In 2015, for instance, it brought second-party project Helldivers to PC within months of its PlayStation console release. But it wasn\u2019t until Horizon Zero Dawn\u2019s Epic Games Store and Steam launch in 2020 that the console-maker began hosting its first-party titles on other platforms. In the two years since then, Days Gone, God of War (2018), and Spider-Man Remastered have all made the jump. The seemingly arbitrary release strategy raises myriad questions, though, some of which may finally have vague answers at best. PlayStation teases shorter PC launch window for exclusive games In an interview with YouTuber Julien Chi\u00e8ze, PlayStation Studios Head Hermen Hulst revealed that \u201cgoing forward\u201d PC versions of PS4\/PS5 exclusives will arrive at least one year later. With respect to live-service experiences, though, PC releases may become available much sooner. The PlayStation boss told Chi\u00e8ze the following: \u201cI think going forward, we\u2019ll see at least a year between releases on our own platform, on PlayStation, and on the PC platform \u2013 possibly with the exception of live-service games. Live-service games are a little bit different in nature because you want to have really strong community, strong engagement right away\u2026 So we might, in the case of our live-service offerings, go day and date with PC and the PlayStation platform.\u201d While Hulst\u2019s comments clear the air in some respect, they remain vague enough to spark new questions about when exactly PlayStation\u2019s exclusive games will land on PC. It\u2019s possible, for example, that Horizon Forbidden West or God of War Ragnarok could hit Steam and the Epic Games Store next year. But until Sony actually clarifies its plans, all anyone can do is guess when these new adventures will make the jump.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
