PlayStation To Continue Its PC Campaign Bringing Exclusive Games To The Platform – Starting With Days Gone

While Microsoft continued to manifest a standing in the PC realm of the video game market with titles like Sunset Overdrive, Ryse: Son of Rome, and the most recent Halo: The Master Chief Collection coming to Steam, the thought of Sony Interactive Entertainment doing a similar approach always appeared farlandish. But, it did eventually become a reality for keyboard & mouse owners.

In that, we witnessed Guerrilla Games’ Horizon Zero Dawn make its way to the platform back in August 2020. Similarly, the same also applied to Kojima Productions’ Death Stranding as the game eventually arrived to PC as well. However, the momentum was cut short fairly after the two which left many fans wondering what is to come. One listing suggested Days Gone will come in the future, but was later discovered to be doctored.

But now in a new interview with GQ, Sony Interactive Entertainment President & CEO Jim Ryan issues that the Bend Studio title is officially hitting PC sometime later on this year. Even more, players can find a larger assortment of PlayStation-exclusive games to follow as well.

This is following on from your publishing Horizon Zero Dawn on PC in August last year. How did that go?

We assessed the exercise in two ways. Firstly, in terms of the straightforward success of the activity of publishing the game on PC, people liked it and they bought it. We also looked at it through the lens of what the PlayStation community thought about it. There was no massive adverse reaction to it. So we will continue to take mission steps in this direction.

As of recently, Bend Studios and more so Days Gone faced several obstacles & changes. For one, the game inherited a next-generation PlayStation 5 update which introduced new enhancements like 60 frames per second and a target resolution output of 4K. Elsewhere, the developer entering December shared that leads for Days Gone Jeff Ross & John Garvin both left the studio already.

In the recent report, the piece also references the news breaking in regards to the next PlayStation VR headset. While not much is there to elaborate on, the controller for it is said to be similar to how players enjoy the DualSense controller. You can read the full report by heading here.
