It's been a while since Sony announced a new single-player PS5 game and readers are trying to figure out what they are waiting for. Last Thursday's State of Play was a disappointment for many gamers, with Sony warning ahead of time that there would be nothing new and boy, were they right.
But then I started to think, how long has it been since Sony made a single-player announcement? After doing some research, I came to the conclusion that the last single-player game announcement was on September 9th, 2021 and it was for Marvel's Wolverine. This means it has been over two years since Sony has announced a new single-player game.
It's hard to explain why the biggest and most successful video game company in the world has done so little. What could they be waiting for? To make matters worse, Sony is obsessed with live service games and has promised 10 or more by 2026, yet none have been released yet.
Leaked job ads and information have revealed that Sony is working on projects like Ghost of Tsushima 2, a new Horizon game, and a Twisted Metal reboot. So why won’t they talk about them? Is there something wrong with the games? Are they waiting for new hardware? Sony has treated the PlayStation VR2 terribly, with only a single first-party game released and that’s not much better on the PlayStation 5.
It's almost mind-boggling that Sony can go for so long without announcing anything new. Who knows how long it will be until they remind us that they used to make video games.
