Jeff Shull, digital marketing and growth manager at Repeat.gg, said that joining PlayStation will give the platform access to more resources, game titles, and technology, thus allowing it to grow further. He clarifies that the platform will not be limited to only supporting PlayStation and that the gaming community comes first.
“We will continue to support PC, mobile, and other consoles alongside PlayStation,” says Shull in astatement. “This includes the addition of the most popular competitive game titles, regardless of what platform they are available on.”
While mostly known for its extensive single-player exclusive titles nowadays, PlayStation has been more active in the esports industry recently. The companyacquired Evo, the fighting game tournament, last March.
In addition to that strategic push, Sony has committed to launching at least10 live service titles by 2026. It acquired Bungie andHaven this year, with the latter’s first game to be a live service one. Sony’s investment in these live services synergizes well with its venture into the esports space.
