Sony pulling back from PC also means it's pulling back from China
Sony appears to be scaling back its strategy of releasing single-player PlayStation titles on PC, a move that has drawn scrutiny. Analysis suggests this shift may be driven by concerns over Valve's dominance rather than competition from Xbox. Data indicates that China represents a significant market for PlayStation games on Steam, with titles like Death Stranding 2 and Stellar Blade seeing substantial sales from the region, suggesting that PC releases can boost PlayStation sales and overall game visibility.
