Sony Co-CEO Hideaki Nishino bereitet schonmal day1 PC Releases vor
--More and more people are playing games on PC. Please tell us the value of home consoles.
"I think that many mobile games have ads, and PCs are difficult to set up. With PS, you can play the content you purchased as soon as you turn it on. The products are clearly displayed in the stores where you buy software, so it's an intuitive experience."
"We are trying to increase the overall game market by expanding content to PCs. There is no doubt that home consoles will be the core of our business, but by offering titles for devices other than home consoles, we will reach a wider range of customers."
ソニーグループは家庭用ゲーム機「プレイステーション(PS)5」の上位機種を11月に発売する。9月にはPS5を値上げし、収益向上に乗り出した。パソコンでゲームを遊ぶ人が増えるなか、ハードの戦略をどう描くのか。ゲーム子会社のソニー・インタラクティブエンタテインメント(SIE)でPS事業を担当する最高経営責任者(CEO)の西野秀明氏に聞いた。――PS5の上位機種のPS5Pro(プロ)を発売します。
