During a recent interview with the Russian media TASS, Jim Ryan, president and CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment, spoke 360 degrees of PlayStation 5 and its ecosystem. During the long chat, the boss of the Japanese giant was asked if Sony was going to counter the enormous success achieved by Xbox Game Pass with the release of a similar service. Here's Ryan's dry answer:
There is actually news coming, but not today.
Making such a service makes no sense to us. We are not going to go down that route by putting new titles into this subscription model.
These games have cost many millions of dollars, well over $ 100 million, to develop. We just don't consider it sustainable.
Therefore, it would seem that the Japanese company intends in part to revolutionize its service dedicated to cloud gaming, but the boss of SIE he preferred not to dwell much on the subject, given that at the moment they are busy distributing PS5 worldwide. Furthermore, according to his recent statements, in the future we will hardly see a subscription similar to that proposed by the Redmond house, given that Ryan he reiterated again that it is a unsustainable strategy for Sony.
