It looks like Sony will bring a fair amount of its gaming goodies to mobile platforms, including iOS.
During a Q&A session today, Sony CEO Jim Ryan announced plans to bring some of its “iconic IP” to mobile devices during its current fiscal year, which runs until March 2022.
Ryan offered the following comments:
In FY21 we will begin to publish some of our iconic PlayStation IP on mobile and we anticipate that in 2021, that will not provide a significant profit flow, but we do anticipate that as we learn from that experience, and as we increase the number of titles that we publish on mobile, the contribution from both PC and mobile will start to become steadily more important as time passes.
A presentation from Sony showed the company’s believe that the mobile gaming industry created US$121 billion globally in 2020, while the console industry brought US$62 billion. In April, Sony revealed work on a business unit to adapt its popular games to mobile.
Stay tuned for additional details as they become available.
