Sony CFO says PlayStation lacks IPs even as IP-filled platformer pays homage to dozens
Sony says it doesn’t have enough original IP content to lean on for releases, which is a very odd sounding statement for fans of the company’s original games.
Sony’s CFO, Hiroki Totoki, told Financial Times in an interview “whether it’s for games, films, or anime, we don’t have that much IP we fostered from the beginning.” Totoki made this statement while ironing out a larger idea for a “creation shift” aimed at carving a path for Sony’s future. In order to dominate the market further, the company now needs to find more IP. It’s just… Sony actually does boast plenty from across decades of gaming history.
