Over the next four years, Sony plans to develop more than 10 game services. In a message to investors, the company emphasized that one of the reasons it acquired Bungie was because of its experience and the technology the studio has developed in the field of creating such projects.
Sony is delighted with Bungie's Destiny series, which represents the genre of game-services, and intends to use its experience and created technologies. The company plans to capitalize on these strengths when developing its own IPs in an attempt to expand into the live-game genre. Through close collaboration between Bungie and the PlayStation studios, the company plans to release multiple games by the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026.
Through the acquisition of Bungie, Sony also aims to accelerate the growth of revenue from its own gaming software, aiming to double the revenue generated by 2025. The strategic value of this acquisition is also due to the fact that Bungie is working on a completely new, large IP.
In addition, Sony will not stop releasing their games on other platforms, as this brings in huge profits. You don't have to look far: the PC version of God of War is still at the top of Steam's weekly TOP of sales.
