Sony Comments on Risk of Losing PS5 Users to PC

索尼不担心PS5用户流失至PC

索尼高管表示,公司并不认为PS5用户大量流失至PC平台存在重大风险。这一说法来自最近一份关于PC如何在索尼游戏发行战略中发挥作用的概述。

索尼于2020年开始将其第一方游戏移植到PC平台,首款游戏为《地平线:零之曙光》。自那以后,尤其是在2021年收购PC移植巨头Nixxes之后,索尼在这方面的努力不断加强。

虽然将PlayStation独占游戏移植到PC平台可以扩大游戏受众和收入潜力,但理论上也削弱了索尼硬件的独特卖点。然而,实际上,这家游戏巨头并不太担心PS5用户流失到PC平台,一位公司代表在2024年末与投资者的问答环节中明确表示:“就用户流失到PC平台而言,我们既没有证实有任何此类趋势正在进行,到目前为止,我们也没有将其视为重大风险。”

PS5销量似乎不受索尼PC移植策略影响

索尼的观点与其在硬件领域的近期表现相符。最新的官方PS5销量数据显示,截至2024年11月,该公司已售出6550万台PS5游戏机。这与PS4的销量大致相当,PS4在其上市头四年销量略高于7300万台。这两款游戏机销量之间的微小差异,更容易用PS5因疫情导致的供应短缺来解释,而不是游戏机缺乏永久独占游戏。由于索尼的游戏机销量在几代产品之间保持稳定,因此该公司认为PC移植对PS5整体价值主张的影响最小,这就不足为奇了。

“就用户流失到PC平台而言,我们既没有证实有任何此类趋势正在进行,到目前为止,我们也没有将其视为重大风险。”

索尼不仅有望继续推进PC移植工作,而且可能会以更大的力度进行。2024年,索尼总裁户贺贵树表示,该公司计划在PlayStation PC移植方面变得更加“积极”,这意味着将缩短其PS5和Steam版本之间的发布时间差。《漫威蜘蛛侠2》就反映了这一战略转变,该游戏计划于1月30日登陆PC,距离其最初发布仅15个月。Insomniac系列的前作《蜘蛛侠:迈尔斯·莫拉莱斯》曾作为PlayStation独占游戏存在两年多。

除了《漫威蜘蛛侠2》之外,PC玩家本月还可以期待另一款当前的PlayStation独占游戏,因为《最终幻想7 重生》计划于1月23日登陆Steam。索尼仍有几款备受瞩目的PS5独占游戏尚未宣布将登陆PC,包括《GT赛车7》、《浪人崛起》、《星际之刃》和《恶魔之魂》重制版。
