What Should PlayStation Do Next? Bungie Deal, Acquisitions, and the Future IP War - Play Rank Share
8Gaming news and discussion has been buzzing for weeks now since the huge deal between Microsoft and Activision Blizzard was announced. Just days ago, Sony announced the acquisition of Bungie, makers of big franchises including Halo and Destiny - likely a retaliatory move towards Xbox's acquiring of Bethesda last year. This is all indicative of a greater trend of corporations quickly snapping up smaller developers and publishers. In today's episode, I discuss the implications of these big deals for Sony and PlayStation, and share my predictions and hopes for Sony's future partnerships and acquisitions, as well as my overall thoughts on this whole consolidation thing (spoiler alert: I don't love it!) Thanks for watching as always, and I hope you'll look forward to some more traditional-style review episodes in the coming weeks for Sifu, Dying Light 2: Stay Human, and Tales of Arise.
I'm genuinely interested to hear your thoughts on consolidation in the gaming industry, and what studios you think Sony should or will look into working with next! Please let me know your thoughts in the comments below!
