You can run, but you can't hide: #PlayStation 5 will be showcased later... #Sony didn't specify any dates yet, let's just wait for it.
Dreams will no longer receive any updates, so there won't be native PS5 and PSVR2 support, no multiplayer, etc:

The creative sandbox was only released on PS4 to allow artists to make games with #NoCode and pretty outstanding visuals.

Unfortunately, Sony and Media Molecule never ported it on PC, never allowed "some games to be released outside of dreams" (as it was initially promised). It seems that despite all the strong sides they were afraid of this Pandora Box, that could potentially grow into another Roblox.

Mr. "Block Your Merger" was fired from #Sony: his duty will stop calling next spring. Even PlayStation fans are mostly celebrating due to his hostile statements and business practices in recent years.

Let's learn some SONY PlayStation business practices:

1. Make the best game-making tool
2. Limit monetization and marketing
3. Shut it down and lay off people
4. Then it's competitor Roblox is the most popular game on PlayStation in 2023!

This could be SONY's magnum opus, but became the biggest failure, probably more devastating, than the Microsoft vs Sony debates in the court.

And here's the analytics of SONY games on Steam dated February 2023. Some games, like Spider-Man were released recently and will eventually catch up.

Surprisingly, Uncharted sales are very low, probably due to the fact that it was only the last game (and its DLC). And Days Gone is actually doing pretty good.

Same presentation shows that port of Ratchet Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart took $2.6m to produce in about 5 months, but the company expected to gain about $20m from Steam sales. It's curious though, that console release of the game was a financial flop — PlayStation lost $8m on it.
