Hiroki Totoki’s comments started a discussion online about PlayStation IPs. Many feel that the company does have plenty of fan-favorites, but they just don’t get a chance to shine and instead go for things like Concord. What do you think?
What are some of the most popular PlayStation IPs?
Over the years, PlayStation has had many renowned IPs, although some remain ‘in limbo’. An example of this is the Astro Bot game, which is a celebration of the console’s 30th anniversary and allows the character to dress up as several of its most famous characters.
Among these we have characters from The Last of Us, God of War, Uncharted, Ratchet & Clank, Parappa the Rapper, Bloodborne, Ape Escape and many more. These are just some of the most well-known IPs, but as you may know, in recent years the company has only focused on the Kratos, Joel and Ellie sagas. However, the potential is there to bring others back and perhaps with more success than Concord.
