Sony PlayStation has been trying for some time to find its own important space in the video market mobile gamesand it seems that the efforts are destined to continue, as some recent ones also demonstrate job advertisements which highlight a search for personnel in this area.
In particular, this is the announcement for a Mobile Platform Architecttherefore a role that seems to be of fundamental importance for a renewal of PlayStation’s mobile strategy, which Sony intends to focus on in the next period.
As usual, the information in this area is vague but the role description talks about “developing, publishing and managing free-to-play mobile games“, so there is a marked focus on titles distributed on a free basis with microtransactions.
Any big changes coming to the scope?
This Architect should therefore be responsible for creating internal tools that can improve the general management of the mobile games offered by PlayStation, perhaps through the construction of a platform integrated capable of being shared by the catalog.
PlayStation has been experimenting with smartphone games for some time now, but so far it hasn’t really found real success, so it’s clear that the company needs a certain change in organization and strategy in this scope.
In 2022, Sony had acquired Savage Games Studios to produce mobile titles, but this underwent a major internal restructuring, also following the loss of staff, becoming Neon Koi last year, but we haven’t heard much from this recently either . At this point, we wait to see what the new momentum on the mobile front will bring.
