PlayStation 4 exclusive Weather: Zero Dawn they will be coming to your computers this year, sources say Kotaku. It's an unprecedented move for Sony signing a future where the publisher is releasing games on platforms beyond its comfort.
The news comes from three people who are familiar with Tony's programs, all speaking anonymously because they are not authorized to speak to the media. Sony did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Weather: Zero Dawn, an open-world game set in the past post-apocalyptic genre of the United States painted by dinosaurs of robots, launched on PS4 in February 2017. It was PS4 they are highly charged and was a commercial success for its developer, Guerrilla Games, owned and operated by Sony. And, like other games published by Sony two decades ago, it was exclusive to the PlayStation console, helping to drive sales of Sony hardware more than monetize itself.
Now, three years later, Exhibition will be on another platform for the first time. We expect to see the game on Steam and Epic Games Store when it launches (though that may not be completed yet). It will be Guerrilla's first game on a non-PlayStation platform since Sony bought the studio based in the Netherlands in 2005. It will be an opportunity for Guerrilla to showcase its technology—Weather: Zero Dawn, blocked by PlayStation 4 & # 39; s Hardware, locked at 30 frames per second. We expect the PC version to be more capable.
This will be the first major exclusive game from a Sony-owned developer to PC. A Wonderful Death, launched on the PS4 last November and will be back again arrive on PC soon this year
One thing A Wonderful Death and Weather: Zero Dawn allocation technology. Both games work on Guerrilla & # 39; s Decima Engine, a toolkit and software for making open world video games. Guerrilla and Kojima Productions have worked together in recent years.
For many publishers, the release of the game on PC wouldn't be a big deal. Many video game companies are trying to put their software on as many platforms as possible. But for Tony, this is a remarkable move. Since the introduction of PlayStation 1 in 1994, almost every game funded by Sony has been exclusive to the PlayStation platform
However, as analyst Matt Piscatella has made it clear, the future of video games lies environment, not platforms. Sony's main competitor, Microsoft, has always been important to his age group, with Xbox boss Phil Spencer speaking often about wanting to get their games in as many hands as possible. A few years ago, Microsoft released all of its Xbox games on PC as well. Will Tony follow up on his PlayStation split deal? This is a future PC port Exhibition it can be a tell-tale sign.
