Photo by Vjeran Pavic / The Verge Sony is apparently looking to release more than 25 PlayStation 5 games under its PlayStation Studios brand. And “nearly half” of them will not be sequels or spinoffs, according to Wired’s interview with PlayStation Studio lead (and former Guerrilla Games managing director) Hermen Hulst. That could theoretically be a lot more games than the four first-party Sony titles we already know about: Horizon Forbidden West (2021) God of War: Ragnarok (2021) Gran Turismo 7 (2022) Twenty-one additional games could be a huge shot in the arm for the PS5, especially considering how slowly exclusives are trickling out; Sony also may not be completely on the hook for producing all of the games that are unaccounted for, though.

Fri, May 7th 2021 7:39pm Timothy Geigner The troubling signs for Google s video game streaming platform Stadia continue. While I have to admit that I had really high hopes for Stadia, nothing about this has been smooth from launch to its current state of, well, who the hell knows what is going to happen to it. From a poor initial reception to questions about failed promises on performance, the conversation about Stadia quickly focused on the platform not offering much in the way of an actual game catalogue to play.
