If PlayStation is well known for its games with a quality narrative experience like God of War or Uncharted, the company also wants to provide gaming services. Because the market is particularly juicy.
Service gaming is particularly lucrative, and Fortnite and Apex are the brightest examples in the field. Inevitably a publisher like Sony sees this as a bit of a goose that lays a golden egg. On the occasion of its financial statement, the company, therefore, announced that it wanted to produce and launch no less than 10 service games before March 2026.
“money money money“
For those who have doubts about its definition, a service game is a game that regularly offers content updates to keep the title alive as long as possible, most of the time via a multiplayer mode. While offering microtransactions to make the user feel “unique”. The Minecraft example with its many skins and content is particularly telling.
10 games to rule them ALL
This is rather good since the Bungie studio has quite a lot of expertise in the field thanks to Destiny and it has just been recently acquired by Sony. One of these 10 games will therefore very clearly be a Bungie creation, but the rest is still very secret.
We can expect to see a lot of multiplayer titles arrive in the years to come from Sony.
