Rumor Hints at Sony Shifting Focus Away From PC

Over the weekend, a rumor began circulating that suggested PlayStation had scrapped plans for a PC port of Gran Turismo 7 and would not be releasing Demon’s Souls on PC. As expected, several media outlets picked up these claims, and social media was soon buzzing with suggestions that Sony might be pulling back from launching PlayStation titles on PC. However, this rumor doesn’t hold much weight.

Let’s delve into where this speculation began. It seems the chatter started on a forum known as Icon-Era, which caters mainly to avid PlayStation enthusiasts. It’s worth noting that Icon-Era doesn’t have a strong track record when it comes to credible information. Although we’re unable to definitively label the claims about Gran Turismo 7 and Demon’s Souls as completely baseless, our investigation hasn’t uncovered any backing from reliable insiders or trusted journalists.

Interestingly, the person responsible for sparking the rumor on Icon-Era repeatedly clarified that it wasn’t intended to suggest Sony is altering its PC game strategy. Yet, fans were quick to jump to conclusions. Typical reactions on the forum included comments like, “Let’s hope Bloodborne never reaches the dirty sand shores of PC as well,” and another user chimed in with, “Please no Bloodborne or Astro Bot [on PC].”

Such remarks highlight why any speculative games talk from Icon-Era should be taken with a grain of salt.
