Sony: The Future Is Incredibly Bright for PlayStation | Push Square

Sony has replaced outgoing CEO Jim Ryan with an all-star tag-team partnership: Hermen Hulst will lead PS Studios and its intellectual property, while Hideaki Nishino will focus on hardware and services. The pair, together, will be tasked with leading PlayStation into a new era, as PS5 enters the latter half of its lifecycle and the company explores new initiatives, like PC, mobile, and television.

For interim CEO Hiroki Totoki, who will continue to serve as Sony Interactive Entertainment’s chairman, the future is looking bright. “Since I became Chairman in October 2023, I have been inspired by your enthusiasm, innovative approaches, and teamwork,” he said in an email to staff, which has been published publicly. “These values will serve us well as we embark on the exciting future for SIE.”

Totoki teased that Sony will reveal its long-term vision later this month, and that PlayStation will play a pivotal role in that. “As I mentioned previously, FY24 marks the start of the Mid-Range Plan period for Sony Group in which we will set the course for sustainable growth,” he said. Exciting stuff is on the horizon, then – let’s wait and see what the coming weeks have in store.

I like this duo. I just really wish we would see games like resistance, Socom, Sly, Motorstrom etc etc. i love my PS, sure i like the Xbox controller better, but i love me some PS. But i grew insanely tired of PS4 action adventure climb here only, quick time event games. Sure they are good too, but need some variety. Deliver that and rumors of MS bringing over legacy titles and collections to older games and PS is setup great even if i think they are losing players slowly
