4 the players!
Is PSN bad? Seems like a normal storefront.

Sony PlayStation Games on PC are now Published by "PlayStation PC LLC" no Longer "PlayStation Mobile"
- Thread starter NeoRaider

especially if the secondary goal, as they claim, is marketing for their sequels. Makes sense to get it in front of as many eyes as possible.
Hmm that's definitely interesting, there's 30 public (counting DLC at least, which this seemingly is) and 18 hidden. Even if we take the games from the Nvidia leak (10 games listed with no public Steam page) that's still 8 missing games yet to be announced/leaked.depends on what you mean by "soon", they had 41 in May, but their next game is in January
PlayStation’s Steam page is live and seemingly hints at more PC content | VGC
Sony’s PC storefront lists 41 pieces of content, but only around half is visible…www.videogameschronicle.com
If I had to guess, there's the two Spider-Man games, the TLOU remake, TLOU 2, Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart and God of War Ragnarok, but then there's still 2 potentially missing games. Maybe MLB the Show, but the Xbox version was published by MLB last year and no PC version yet, so I'm not sure...
Hopefully it's Gravity Rush 1/2 though, that's literally all I want tbh
at the time of the artcle there were already 24 items, but with only 4 games ready for purchase or preorder, Predator alone took more than 10 or 15 slots if I remember right
I think it's poorly set up, a pain to navigate, and they don't offer refunds.
Realistically they don't have a large enough presence to offer a separate store.
Some people don't seem to realize this isn't just a "name change in Steam."
Steam publisher links directly to a company Tax Identification in whatever country the company is founded. The rules are the name has to match the official record in the country's directory of licensed businesses. So you can't call yourself "Bobs Games" and then register a tax ID for "Bobs Vape Shop."
The earnings are then reported by Valve to the specific company/Tax ID registered.
So this is Sony creating a separate LLC, with it's own Tax ID, so that they can have financials specific to PC releases under one company.
TLDR: It's not a name change in Steam, it's a new company formed to cover PC development and have financials separate from other Sony companies.

So with these internal release dates for games under the Publisher Playstation Mobile from the leaked Geforce Now list in hand it'd be interesting to compare with the order in which Sony releases the Future PC ports.
Here's the list sorted by release date:
GoW 2018 seems to get a delay of 6 months internally from these dates but Uncharted Collection seems to be more or less on point with its date. Seems quite bizarre for all of these games to have a 2022 release lol also Demon's Souls and Grand Turismo 7 dates are missing cause they were apparently not present in the leaked list.
So, yeah, this might prove useful to see in which order Sony releases future PC ports.

Uhhhh what? Where did these dates come from specifically?

I think they were in the initial first list that was leaked but I can't seem to find them after the first one was DMCA'd by Ubi.
This for example, has the 'earliest street date' for the GTA Trilogy in the code.
XPaw: GeForce Now has interesting titles listed (God of War Steam, Helldivers 2, Dolphin Emu etc.) Rumor
Possibly release date for remastered GTAs?

And this being a few of the dates hidden in the leaked list code for some of the Sony games..

God of War was released for PC two months ago, somehow we missed that. So probably not too accurate.

Oh wow I had idea, this huge. Returnal being 4/2022 would be fucking amazing.
Exaaaactly.
Of course, having dualsense tied to PS integration for the games themselves would be annoying, but this could actually benefit that. Developers, Sony especially, might better put dualsense support in if they know more people will specifically using dualsense controllers. Could, Idk. Maybe that's just hopeful. Feels a bit like it lol.
Well yeah I was just saying they oughta do the whole shebang, but I had a feeling you'd be all for extending it to all that.
Exactly. I personally don't use gamebar a lot but I know quite a few people for whom it has naturally turned into a value-added feature for them.
I think a time traveler going back a decade would have a hard time of convincing people of the current state of PC gaming.
Everything including Japanese publishers earnestly jumping on the PC train (including Atlus), MS's extensive pushes, more and more countries giving rise to promising indie titles (esp. in China recently), and now Sony seeing the money being left on the table... The next real paradigm shift will be when Nintendo releases some NES titles on Steam in 250 years.
It seems a bit crazy to me that the Demon's Souls remaster would end up on PC before Bloodborne, though.

There is already full dualsense support on Steam and sveral games already have explicit support for it. Not sure anything more needs to be added.
It was worth it for me to buy the PS5 just to play TLOU and GOW. The game is just insane and is a must-play in line with RDR2 and Witcher 3. These are not games. These are true art.
seems like Sony's PC quotes are exponentially rising :D

interesting to see Bluepoint mention in this 🙃
Hopefully it means they can port their Uncharted trilogy port to PC.
They will probably wait for TLOU Remake ( who knows it could even be day and date like Uncharted remaster ) before dropping TLOU2.
GoW is a reboot so making the 2018 game available without previous games is non issue but in a game like TLOU2 if they release it without giving access to the first one first they it would be a at least odd.

Forbidden West getting released 6 months after the PS5 version is interesting. People were pretty certain that Sony was only going to bother with "old" games. Makes me wonder if they'll eventually cave and just do normal day 1 releases.
Dictator from DF hinted FW would be sooner. I doubt it's gonna be that soon but we'll see.
It makes sense insofar as it's a product that was recently in development (possibly is still active development for dlc) and may have had a pc port in mind during development. Nobody at From has loaded up a Bloodborne build since early 2016 for the final patch, I imagine.
Does dates dont seem to be right, there is a lot of wrong ones in there.

Just unbelieveable.Is there even one game left other than Bloodborne?It's like a cruel joke from Sony
I historically love consoles but this next gen, definitely going PC. Just no reason not to at this point
dont like dealing with techy stuff but when it has all of microsofts stuff out of the gate, has steam and the inferior service of epic games store throwing free stuff at you constantly, emulators, and even Sony releases coming only a few years down the line, just feels like there is no reason not to. My only concern is how an increasing PC base might effect piracy especially for Nintendo consoles who run a bit behind the times on tech, but that is a small concern given all the benefits and doesn't really effect me. Guess Sony doesn't really see the point of consoles anymore when they are at best breaking even on the hardware? Feels like a shift for sure

I still find it implausible that PS5 exclusives will release in less than a year (even just half a year) on PC too. Sony is still heavily investing in Playstation exclusive third party games left and right, why would they do that, but bring their own games sooner to other platforms?
Shawn Layden also recently explained that the plan was to port Playstation games to PC once they reached sales saturation on Playstation, so when there are not many sales going to happen anymore. It's unlikely Horizon Forbidden West will have reached sales saturation on PS5, a platform that is still steadily growing, in less than a year.
Lastly, if the new plan was indeed to release PS5 games in a year or less, where are the PC announcements of Miles Morales and Demon's Souls?

While I certainly believe Forbidden West will likely launch around 6 months after the console version, I feel like it's worth pointing out that the listed release dates for God of War 4 and likely Uncharted are both off to varying degrees, so these could be placeholder dates or could have been changed.
I think the September 30th date is saying it'll be released one year after the console launch. The game was delayed a lot, but I still feel like they could have been internally aiming for September 30 2021 for the console release at some point in time
The main reason I'm doubting a shorter PC release schedule from Sony is that they are charging $70 for their PS5 games. I don't think charging $70 for their PC ports will go over well with the PC base and I don't think releasing a $60 PC port shortly after the PS5 versions will go over well with the console base. But we'll see what Sony does and what kind of release strategy they go with.
I believe Sony will start releasing their games day one on PC sooner than most people expect. It's going to happen, there's no turning back at this point.
How will this affect PlayStation as a platform? I don't know, but it will definitely happen, imo. I see Sony chasing games on PC as a strategy to launch PS Now on PC with downloadable games/exclusives.

spiderman, Gravity Rushes, Last Guardian, Shadow of Colossus, Until Dawn, Medievil and that Pixel Opus game.
Also, The Order 1886, Dreams, and Knack
Edit: I guess there was also the Infamous game and that one KillZone on the PS4.

I still dont understand how Dreams hasnt gotten a PC port. That kind of genre and set of tools are made for a PC ecosystem!
And lots of other underperforming and obscure games from PS3 like Tokyo Jungle and Trash Panic.
Few people even want to own both a gaming PC and a Playstation console (see the recent Mat Piscatella/NPD thread about this). Even fewer people are physically able to even acquire both a gaming PC and a PS5 right now, with supply chain constraints being what they are. If you release a game right now on console only, you're leaving (a lot of) money on the table.
I'm not including the earlier gen stuff, since we can be here all night for that.
Considering Sony isn't big on putting any effort into back compat on console, I would not expect them to want to preserve stuff like Puppeteer, Tokyo Jungle or Folklore on PC.
Yeah anything that Sony made before 2014 is effectively dead to them and it's a shame.
Aren't PS5 sales, even during supply chain constraints, not far behind that of the PS4? Didn't Sony just have one of its most profitable years ever?
"Even fewer people are physically able to even acquire both a gaming PC and a PS5 right now, with supply chain constraints being what they are."
Apparently it's not even fewer people to years and consoles before.
