Official Sony Aims to Optimize PlayStation’s Development Projects to Consistently Release Hit Games

[SpartaN]

Today Sony hosted its quarterly financial conference call, and CFO and COO Hiroki Totoki provided more insight into the performance and plans for the PlayStation business.

During the livestreamed presentation, we heard that the 116 million figure announced earlier today for PlayStation Network monthly active users us the highest ever recorded for June. Total playtime on the platform also increased 8% year-on-year.

Moving on to software, the executive explained that Helldivers 2 is performing better than expected within the forecast announced in May. The PC version of Ghost of Tsushima and the expansion of Destiny 2: The Final Shape are also “contributing to earnings” (which is bitterly ironic in view of the recent mass layoffs at Bungie).

Does this mean they ll stop laying off staff members then? Because after what I saw what happened at Bungie, doesn't look like that cunt Pete Parsons should be still CEO at Bungie

Still waiting for a sale on Ghost of Tsushima but glad to see that's doing well

It's great to hear that the PC version of Ghost of Tsushima is contributing to earnings. That game truly deserves all the success it’s getting. Hopefully, this means we’ll see more PlayStation exclusives coming to PC.

Bungie's layoffs are happening at the same time Destiny 2 is making money. It feels weird to hear this news.

I can only say one thing Sony is successful and is still the leader in the console market. Of course there are Xbox and others, but in my opinion they are much behind. I bought both the PlayStation 4 and the 5th. I was very pleased with both. I recently read an article about how to build a minimum viable product. So far I can't even imagine how much effort is needed for this. Geniuses definitely work on such projects, no other way.

I don't even know what to answer to this.
