Hardware didn't decline this FY. It was higher than last FY. But just like PS4, this will be the peak FY for hardware. Hardware will be on decline from now on. But that's normal.
Helldivers 2 12 Million sold well done Arrowhead and Sony. Legit a big franchise now. The report was also better than expected and good to see profits increase hopefully we can avoid more lay offs. We are for sure see Concord soon now and its time bring on the showcase
My theory is that every exec at Sony got filtered by Father Gascoigne and this is their revenge.
He also has the authority to get them to do a horizon remaster instead 🤪
25-26 could include:
GOT2
SSM new IP
ND new IP
Horizon MP
Wolverine
So it's not difficult to see how they have major tentpole games lined up for that period

A remake or remaster is going to happen at some point. Sony doesn't continually make new Bloodborne merchandise to goof around. They know that it's popular. It's just matter of how to release a new version of it.
Man, I slept 10-11 hours. Now read all the posts since last night. Good stuff and good numbers

Can't believe we might see ND next game soon
Most likely Sony Group Investment.
If SIE budget is around 2-4B USD range, i can see them making one big investments + 2-3 smaller studios. What are the possible big investments? I think that it will depend on the Sony-Paramount deal. Paramount have a lot more IPs that can be adapt into games.
Also it depends if the potential merged entity Sony-Paramount Pictures will have an interest to collaborate with SIE, but eventually it will be for the best Sony Group's interest.
I think ND is at the earliest for 2026 so wonder if they will show it this month
Definitely expecting to see whatever Sony is confident will hit through 2026.
Yeah this is what I suspect, too. Perhaps we'll get 2025's sure fire releases, and a couple of teases for 26.
For a moment there I thought you were actually talking about real hats 😂🤣
With Sony's goal of selling 18 million PS5s this fiscal year, if they achieve it and it reaches 77 million next March, how will it compare to the PS4 when launches are aligned?
😂
I was thinking about where Square Enix currently sits…
I am genuinely curious where Final Fantasy really is in mindshare in the mainstream in general nowadays. I get the feeling games journalism and places like this might be a big ol bubble with respect to… kind of a lot of what Square Enix has to offer. Because Dragon Quest has to be smaller than Final Fantasy. Is Kingdom Hearts their biggest "thing" now? I'm not sure if it's bigger than Final Fantasy but Final Fantasy has definitely retracted in the last few entries.
Dunno. I woke up not feeling optimistic about SE. I hope the multiplatform push settles the waters over there, but I'm not sure…

Sony doesn't make Bloodborne merch. Third party companies do that. Sony just doesn't care enough to say no if someone is willing to pay them a licensing fee to make shirts and stuff.
Waiting for that one too, I wanna see all those "best FY/Q in history". The title in the other one make it seems like Playstation is dying.
Fuck yes! Great financials for playstation and if the showcase is fire then with this 1-2 punch #SonyToo narrative will badly die.
Dude shinobi said next year is big for sie and now we know know that fy25 and fy26 are big. ANNOUNCE .THE.SHOWCASE.
Two ceo approach is a great thing for playstation imo . Let them both play to their strength. Only advice for playstation is they should open "Sister studios for their already established studios" where labour cost is low and is a home for console game dev like japan. The idea is "Naughty Dog Japan " would work on principals and goals of naughty dog with even leadership from naughty dog handling the japan one. Maybe shaun or kurt or anyone can lead that studio, same with "Santa monica japan" and such. Just my two cents.

Genuine Q -- how did DS1 do? I know we're all hoping for decent numbers, but it felt kinda niche (unless I've missed some sales milestones)
FY report is out & Helldivers 2 at 12 million.
Now announce that Ragnarök PC & Showcase date & be done with it.

Not great at launch, I remember Sony saying releases in that FY were underwhelming or something along those lines (the big titles in that year were Days Gone and Death Stranding).
Due to Insomniac leaks we know it sold 4.4M (178M$ net sales) on PS4 as of February 2022. Director's Cut sold 262k on PS5.
Back then PC should've been around a million since in july 2021 they said game sold 5M on PS & PC combined.
Neil Druckmann. It's time to announce The Last of Us Remake Remake Remake.
