Totoki makes it clear paramount is about synergies with the rest of Sony group.

So much for not using those IP for games.
It'll help their ET&S segment way more. Bravia core kinda sucks right now. If they can stuff their TV sales with a bundled inclusion of Paramount+ and refactor Bravia core to include Paramount IP it could drive some more sales.

Yes and Herman’s new role is to now create and establish even more media synergy between IP and other media

So they don’t think people will buy it for GTA VI ??? Are these guys insane

2018 has Spider-Man GOW and Fornite

Shinobi already said 2025 is a big year for PlayStation. So how can we not expect the same there 😂?
Not sure what evidence exists that Fortnite free be specifically PS4 sales.

GTA 6 is bigger than God of war and spiderman. And no one expects it to come out in the next fiscal year. Certainly won't impact sales in totality in the next fiscal year.

Thought welfare knew what he was talking about. Expect that from warren not him.

Key points for the mid-range plan (3 years period started last month) regarding gaming, same strategy they had in the last 3 years:

Word is they would sell paramount plus though that could be FUD. Bundling paramount plus free trials with Bravia tvs makes more sense. Paramount plus and Crunchyroll buttons on the controllers.

Regarding M&A, he mentions that yen being weak means that maybe is better for them to wait.

No, I kept updating the OP as they posted them in the stream. That was the only slide regarging gaming when they were talking about their mid-range plan strategy (next 3 years). Basically they'll doing the same they did in recent years.

He didn't mention it, but I'd say that by "Enhacement of PC deployment" they mean that in this 3 years period they plan to release their PC store & launcher.

I'd also bet that by "Providing richer gaming experiences" they meant that will continue releasing the planned GaaS.

59.3M units currently + 18M units this FY = 77,3M units by April 2025, all of this before GTA 6 release (probably Holiday 2025)

Bold of you to assume GTA6 won't be delayed at least once.
I would never trust Rockstar's initial release window.

if they'll ship 18M in FY24 despite no major first party releases, makes me wonder how many units they'll ship in FY25 with GTA 6, Wolverine, Death Stranding 2 and Ghost Of Tsushima 2, by April 2026 PS5 could surpass 100M units if they can surpass 20M shipped in FY25, 77.3 + 20 would already put them in 97.3M, insane amount of sales, faster than any other previous gen
