PlayStation has finally given fans an answer about its PC strategy. Well, sort of. Following months of speculation after Bloomberg first reported that Sony was reconsidering its PC plans, PlayStation has reportedly told staff that its narrative single-player games will remain PlayStation exclusives moving forward.
According to Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier, PlayStation Studios CEO Hermen Hulst shared the update during a company town hall on Monday, May 18, 2026. If accurate, this would mark the end of PlayStation’s six-year experiment of bringing many of its biggest single-player games to PC.
And honestly, what a mess that experiment ended up being. Instead of fully committing to PC, PlayStation often did the bare minimum, pushed PC players toward PlayStation Network requirements, and repeatedly ran into backlash from a community that was already skeptical of how Sony handled the platform.
Then, rather than just saying what the plan was, PlayStation let the news come through reports and leaks instead of using its own blog or social channels. Just rip the bandage off already.
I still think this may be an ill-advised decision. Not because I need to play PlayStation games on PC, as I’ve owned a PS5 since day one, but...
