Reports indicate a significant strategic shift from Sony: the company has reportedly decided to cease releasing its exclusive flagship titles on PC.

This decision is not, according to sources, a result of unsatisfactory earnings from PC ports. Instead, it stems from a profound apprehension regarding the potential threat posed by future iterations of the Steam Machine.

It is speculated that Sony views the evolving Steam Machine platform as a substantial rival, potentially capable of challenging PlayStation’s market dominance in the long term.
