Sony CEO Kaz Hirai will head up a briefing in Tokyo next week during which he will outline Sony's new business strategy.
Reuters reports that Sony is under great pressure to "turn around its business" after predicting a $2.7 billion loss for its current fiscal year.
But what changes will the electronics giant make? The firm's PC and tablet business looks a likely area of concern, but gaming too could come under the spotlight. Will Hirai reveal Sony's next generation intentions and what of the future of the flagging PS Vita?
Sony has recruited Bungie's head of revenue Jaremy Rich to head up its live-service gaming division, Rich has announced on social media.
Please do not put Destiny’s monetization into Sony’s first party games. The monetization is what’s driving players away from Destiny.
I mean, this person made some pretty bad decisions at Bungie. I hope they've learned from them because I definitely don't see those type of ideas as good for PlaySation in general.
Ps5 gamers in 2023 seemed to play more live service types of games, so regardless to how people feel about them, numbers don’t lie and Sony is going where the money is. I mean look at the excitement around Helldivers2, people are showing that they want live service games.
How do you kill a franchise that already been killed?
Destiny’s grind, cash-in-on-playbass-cha-Ching, and pop-culture-insertion mainstream-me-too bs totally killed any rep Bungie had. Sony/Bungie, if you are doing this to ward-off players, it’s already working.
Sony has patented to add multiple dialogue modes to let players switch between how many conversations with NPCs they want in the game.
Sony is like the only ones outta the 3 that has atuff like like this pop up changing thing in ways.
Genuine Enabling Technology was seeking damages, claiming the tech allowing PlayStation consoles and controllers to communicate infringes its rights.
Sounds like patent trolling they tried the same thing against Nintendo with the same pattern.
Motion and control input traversing over higher and lower frequencies seperate from each other allowing the controller to do both
So to recoup the money Genuine is going to take on Nintendo or Microsoft next. I hate patent lawyers they are some of the worst bottom feeders out there.
Let's go Kaz!

They sure need one cause the Playstation brand is dwindling.
after four years of losses, they should really have a good plan for their future.
Kaz Hirai looks like a serious, no BS person. I believe that he will bring Sony back to the spot light and give them the glory they deserve.
