Why Is The Price Of PlayStation Plus Going Up?

According to the official Twitter account, the rising PlayStation Plus prices are simply down to “ongoing market conditions” in the world of video games. When the prices of hardware in its consoles, handhelds, and peripherals it was easy enough to connect the dots and realise that Sony was suffering from the rising prices of components, just like Xbox and Nintendo — two other platform holders who have increased their prices in recent months. Vital things like RAM, SSDs, and more are being bought up in bulk by corporations, leaving consumer-grade products to suffer. Instead of tanking these cos

Why Is PlayStation Leaving PC Ports Behind?

According to Bloomberg, Sony sent out an internal update earlier this week stating that its future first-party narrative-driven titles would no longer be launching on PC and will remain exclusive to PlayStation consoles.

PS6 delays, cross-gen games, and more subscriptions - what Sony's latest financials could mean for PlayStation fans in the future
Why is PlayStation pulling back on PC ports?

Gamers are still left wondering why Sony is reversing course on PS5 exclusives. One popular theory is that it’s looking ahead to the PS6 release date. Unique software could entice buyers to upgrade to the new system, or improve sales of the higher priced PS5.  Sales estimates also hint that, following early success, solo-oriented PS5 PC ports haven’t met goals. On the other hand, the multiplayer Helldivers 2 has enjoyed tremendous support on Valve’s Steam marketplace. Some analysts have suggested that after delayed launches for some ports, buyers lost interest. The news calls into question the
