We are only a short time away from the two new CEOs of PlayStation finally assuming their position as stipulated, and in light of this, interesting data has emerged, the first thing is a business file that reveals sales and information about the acquired studios. The second thing is that one of the leaders, Hermen Hulst has revealed the real reason why sony is launching its single user exclusives PS5 also to the platform PC.
According to what he has commented in a video, he mentions that the multiplayer service is planned to be released at the same time both on the computer and on the current console, but the AAA experiences have something more under control, since with the first game of one of The sagas seek to hook the user and make them not want to wait any longer and go buy their console to try the sequel. Plan that they continue to maintain, until they have the expected number of sales and eventually that second part finally reaches PC.
Here the video:

This last detail has been noticed with some franchises, since until now only the first parts have been released as 2018’s God of War, The Last of Us Part I and Marvel’s Spider-Man with Miles Morales. But this has also been slightly contradicted, since it has also come Horizon Forbidden Westwhich was launched two years after the console version arrived, so it takes a while to put its releases on PC for sale after reaching sales potential.

Author’s note: I don’t know if their approach is the most optimal, but at least they are clear with their convictions. Furthermore, this is something they have done since they confirmed their first PC games like Days Gone.
