God of War & other 1st party title store pages remove "Only on PlayStation" for new "Playstation Exclusives" branding

[EatChildren]

MAJOR UPDATE AND REVELATION:

Fake. If you go back to October 2019, you'll see that it never had the "Only on PlayStation" tag. https://web.archive.org/web/20191010010645/https://www.playstation.com/en-us/games/god-of-war-ps4/

Suck it, PC nerds. Sony rule, Gaben drools.

----------------------------------------------------------

Or, at least, it was assumed to have been there before, now gone.



"The fuck you talking about, drunko?"

See the following store pages.
Spider-Man: https://www.playstation.com/en-us/games/marvels-spider-man-ps4/
Bloodborne: https://www.playstation.com/en-us/games/bloodborne-ps4/
The Last Guardian: https://www.playstation.com/en-us/games/the-last-guardian-ps4/
Days Gone: https://www.playstation.com/en-us/games/days-gone-ps4/
Uncharted 4: https://www.playstation.com/en-us/games/uncharted-4-a-thiefs-end-ps4/

And so on. All pages have this logo.

God of War 2018 is assumed to have had the same logo. I cannot vouch for it myself as I have no recollection of the store page. However, there is no reason it wouldn't have. Wouldn't, being the key word, because if it was there it is now gone; https://www.playstation.com/en-us/games/god-of-war-ps4/

Horizon: Zero Dawn additionally does not have the "Only on PlayStation" branding, for obvious reasons; https://www.playstation.com/en-us/games/horizon-zero-dawn-ps4/
Nor does Detroit: https://www.playstation.com/en-us/games/detroit-become-human-ps4/

"Does this mean God of War is also getting ported to PC?"
Maybe, maybe not. I don't know. It's worth noting however that two other upcoming "PlayStation 4 Exclusives" also do not have the logo.
The Last of Us Part II: https://www.thelastofus.playstation.com/
Ghost of Tsushima: https://www.playstation.com/en-us/games/ghost-of-tsushima-ps4/
But there was suspicion that Naughty Dog were porting TLOU:P2 to PC given the hiring of a PC specific programmer.

Discuss.

EDIT: A CHALLENGER HAS APPEARED.

Nothing to see here. Move along, folks.

EDIT 2: Game of the Generation "Knack 2" also has no "Only on PlayStation". Is it being ported? Does Sony fear the Power of Knack? Are we reading too much into things? Time will tell.

IT'S HAPPENING!!!

LoL

....Yes, I would double-dip for this. :)

 

[Dremorak]

holy balls.
God of War on PC??

I really never thought I'd live to see the day.

 

[TAJ]

I guess Sony thinks that PC sales will make up for a huge drop in PS+ memberships and platform fees? They're wrong.
I always wanted to play their games on PC, though. Yay?

 

[Phonzo]

They keep this up and im going one x and pc next gen. I only wanted ps5 for exclusives.

 

[JEH]

God of war at 120 fps? hnnnng

It's gonna get ported to the Switch. Mark my words.

God of war at 120 fps? hnnnng

How about GT Sport or Driveclub at 120fps, or Bloodborne at 60?

 

[Akronis]

would be interested in playing it on PC, so I'm all for it if it actually happens

Bloodborne cmoooon.

Honestly, though, if they're gonna go the PC route, I'd rather get the Kratos collection first.

I feel that being introduced to Kratos as a sad dad character might diminish the impact of his background.

Dang. Making my i79700k/rtx2080 computer pickup seem tight. Shoutout to steam though.

Well Idk how significant this bit is but if you look at the Buy Now page of the US site, it still has the only on playstation logo.

Again idk what this means but yeah the logo isn't on the main page anymore but only on the buy now page, idk if it was moved to there or w/e.

Nothing to see here. Move along, folks.

This is not from the US Playstation site of GoW which EatChildren linked btw but from another region I reckon since I don't see it anywhere on the US site's main page.

So I was told about Horizon. I doubt it's coming this year though.

 

[2Blackcats]

Didn't we do this a few years ago for some other game.

That said I wouldn't be too surprised if this happened at some. Hopefully with some nice PS5 upgrades as a side benefit

 

[AuthenticM]

OH SHI---

Added to the op. Thanks.

"Only on PlayStation" branding is still removed, which is probably a valid point of interest. Perhaps the categorical listing hasn't been updated.

What an unfortunate time for the Wayback Machine to be down. Both Bing and Google have crawled the site very recently, so that was a no-go, too.

I guess Sony thinks that PC sales will make up for a huge drop in PS+ memberships and platform fees? They're wrong.

I think you're overestimating how many PS4 + PC players there are who use the system for anything more than the very occasional exclusive and underestimating how many PC players there are who can't or won't commit to investing into PlayStation hardware at all.

How annoying.

Just go full PC-Playstation already so i know i don't have to buy your consoles anymore.

 

[J75]

I don't wanna get my hopes up too much since there are still alot of areas that have the Only on Playstation label but i hope it happens.

 

[AegonSnake]

Called it. Hopefully they pull an MS have all ps5 exclusives available on pc day 1. I'm not a fan of their 10 tflops gpu and with ms also going with day 1 launches on pc, it will be great to invest in just one graphics card and get the best of both worlds.
