Sony has a gazillion great 3rd party exclusives. As an example, the just released Granblue Fantasy Relink plus the ones shown in the State of Play, FFVII Rebirth, Foamstars, Silent Hill 2, Silent Hill The Shot Message, ZZZ, Metro Awakening VR.
Plus the first party games shown there like Helldivers 2, Rise of the Ronin, Stellar Blade, Until Dawn, Death Stranding 2, Physint, plus obviously more like Concord.
Again Im talking PS studio exclusives.
Heres my post from 2 other threads:
I want more games from PS studios. If you dont thats cool. Take those PC ports, Remasters and bad decisions which resulted in why there arent more games from PS studios.
If PS Studios like ND, Bend, Bluepoint, Asobo, Sucker Punch etc release a game by (2025-2027) it shouldnt take:
-Bend 6-8 years to release a game
-Asobi 5-7.
-Naughty Dog 5-7 years.
-Sucker punch 5-7 years etc.
-Bluepoint 4 years to remake a new game. They Released Demons Souls only 2 years after Shadow of the Collosus Remake. 2 years!!! To make one of the best looking games this generation. With smaller staff. Not 4-7 years...
I dont care if they were helping ND or Santa Monica. Thats a waste of resources.
I know games take longer now but come on, look at Insomniac and FromSofts output.
Sony should of been expanding there other studios like these guys BEFORE PS5 released.
Its a lack of preparation, and they had all the money to do it. Its not like they are spending 10’s of billions buying publishers and Studios.
The likes of Santa Monica, ND, Guerrilla, Sucker Punch, Bluepoint should have multiple games in works and should of released another game by now with there 2nd team or 1st team. As well as a multiplayer games.
This should of been organised before PS5 so they would of all had an output like Insomniac.
-Bluepoint should not of been helping GOW Ragnarok. They mostly work on remakes so they should of had another one ready for this year at minimum, thats 4 years since Demons Souls.
Think about it, They made Demons Souls Remake, 2 years after the Shadow of the Collosus Remake and Demons Souls is PS5 quality, not cross gen….. That means they could have a remake out every 2-3 years. Not 5-7 etc. Plus they should have a bigger team now or multiple teams From when they made Demons Souls.
-Cory Balrog’s game should of been ready by this year, its been 6 years since GOW 2018.
-ND should of had a game ready by now, only a small team was working on Factions. Its been 4 years since TLOU2
-House Marque should have another team making a Resogun like game by now or a multiplayer game. While also working on there bigger IP
-Sucker Punch should have another team working on Sly Cooper game, Infamous remake or new IP. While they work on GOT2
-Team Asobi ( where Im constant being told has Japan studios staff ) should have another game ready by now, Astrobot was a Demo on PS5, it should have another game ready by now. Its been 4 years for a Platformer… 5-7 years by the time it releases....
Things clearly went down and not in a good way, its too many studios taking too long.
Anyway, lets hope 2025 onwards has more consistent output
----
Compared to last generations output by 2017 they had:
-Bloodborne
-Uncharted 4.
We also got:
-Infamous 2nd son
-Killzone ( ok this sucked big time )
-Resogun
-Knack ( The King )
-Driveclub
-Little big planet 3
-Infamous 1st light

-Horizon Zero Dawn
-Uncharted Lost Legacy

No PC ports in sight. And only a couple cross gen titles.
And not including remasters like TLOU or Gravity Rush
And all the smaller games from smaller studios and Japan studios like
-Hohokum,
- Little far princess
-entwined
-"Helldivers" which every goes on about now lol.
And more

You dont need to defend them so much. Im just making point about PS studios
Dont care if Bend started there game in 2021, they should of started right away like certain other studios. Or that Bluepoint was helping Santa Monica. This is just a waste.
You might prefer to sacrifice more games for these decisions but Id prefer some more games. Especially over PC ports or studios keeping busy helping others.
Sony has the money to make it happen like they did for Insomniac.
I also dont care about PC ports or remasters. Main studios should not be doing this.
Games take longer to make, but these reasons didnt stop Insomniac or other studios this generation.
