They aren't relinquishing publishing rights by choosing to put the game on PC tho. This is their decision. Kojima wanted the game on PC and Sony agreed as part of their contract. It's the exact same deal with Heavy Rain on PC, Sony own the IPs but they're still putting it on PC (through EGS). No reason to believe Death Stranding'll be any different.I don't think Sony would relinquish the publishing rights of a game they heavily financed and gave one of their 1st party engine to make, but who knows ^^
It's going to still be a console exclusive. There's no way this is coming to Xbox one (at least within the next 2 years). I'll bet my avatar on that.
No I was talking about the fact tthat it is delisted from the list showing all the games published or co published by SIE, not the fact that it's obviously coming to pcThey aren't relinquishing publishing rights by choosing to put the game on PC tho.

Did you not read my OP? Click on this link and scroll down until you see Death Stranding. This was from May 26, 2019

At the risk of sounding like a broken record: the list treats as exclusives* every game published or co-published by SIE, including Tetris Effect. There are some exceptions, like Nioh, but the rule is quite consistent.
Yeah, I'm trying to say that the important part of this whole thread is that it was there before, I don't think the other exclusives that people are mentioning to prove this wrong, like Medievil, were ever in that list.
Ah right! My bad haha. Yeah it does seem odd but they've been super secretive lately as to what their timed exclusivity contract with KojiPro entails.No I was talking about the fact tthat it is delisted from the list showing all the games published or co published by SIE, not the fact that it's obviously coming to pc
Yep, Jade Raymond visited the studio not long ago.All you people making epic store jokes are going to look like fools when it's announced to be a Stadia exclusive instead.
Indeed. I couldn't imagine being the kind of person that wouldn't want others to experience what's sure to be a massive wild ride. Can't wait to play DS on my PS4 and play it a year later on my PC.
I honestly think Sony just asked to keep the PC version hush hush untill ps4 release to maximize sells. If you tell people before launch that it's coming to pc and you'll be able to play in 4K/60fps and above, they will definitely loose sales to people who will be ready to wait a year to play the game on PC.Ah right! My bad haha. Yeah it does seem odd but they've been super secretive lately as to what their timed exclusivity contract with KojiPro entails.
Honestly this entire scenario reminds me of Nioh. It had a similar phase where all references to its exclusivity were scrubbed both on the Sony site and the official box before the game came out and lo and behold, it got announced for PC a few months later...
Crazy to think that Sony funded, helped with development and in the end will not be exclusive.
Kojima must have Sony execs in his pocket.
they won't change the engine. I'm sure it'll probably be the same engine when it comes to PC. Sony and KojiPro probably worked this out when Kojima was shopping around for an engine.Isnt this game built on the DECIMA engine which is exclusive to playstation? Is Decima being ported to PC as well or is the PC version going to be in a different engine? A lot of work building a game across two engines for a smaller studio.
EGS announcement incoming!!
For real though, a PC release is good news for everyone!!
Now you are speaking as if this is a confirmed fact?
So in your mind Dreams will not be published by SIE?
I'm no fan of Epic moneyhatting games to be exclusive that where already announced for PC and set to arrive on other stores...
But I'm fine with Epic (or other PC platforms like steam or gog) moneyhatting games that otherwise wouldn't be on PC.
Cant imagine Epic Store will sell too many copies of this game. Just guessing the game looks to be too "adulty" and strange while the majority of customers usng Epic are kids.
I think DS will come to PC. But do you really want to hedge your bets based on an Australian site that is hit or miss with this stuff loli still remember how i got shitted on here and at the official subreddit for merely suggesting the game might one day come to different platforms because that was kojimas plan from the beginning. people were saying there is a 0% chance of that happening because of the engine and because of sony publishing it. thinking about going back to those threads once it's official.
