Sony is reportedly enforcing "stricter guidelines" against so-called "shovelware" PlayStation games
Sony is reportedly enforcing stricter guidelines on its PlayStation platform, leading to the termination of its partnership with Afil Games, a publisher accused of releasing "shovelware." Afil Games confirmed the decision, stating PlayStation is no longer continuing their partnership for future releases. The company will continue to release games on Xbox and Nintendo Switch. This follows Sony's removal of hundreds of games from the PlayStation Store in January, many of which were also considered shovelware.
