Sony Interactive Entertainment has abandoned plans to release current and future first-party single-player PlayStation games on PC, according to a Bloomberg report. Titles including last year's Ghost of Yotei and the upcoming Saros—a Returnal successor set for April 30—will stay exclusive to PS5, while multiplayer games like Marathon (launching tomorrow on PS5 and PC) and Marvel Tokon continue multi-platform. This reverses six years of ports since Horizon Zero Dawn.
Epic Games is working on an extraction shooter featuring Disney characters, marking the first game from its $1.5 billion partnership with Disney announced in 2024, Bloomberg reported on April 10. The multiplayer title involves teams defeating enemies to reach extraction points, with a planned November launch. Internal playtesters described the mechanics as unoriginal but expressed hope for a polished release.

Nintendo is reducing production of its Switch 2 console by a third this quarter, from six million to four million units, following disappointing holiday sales in the United States. The move comes despite a strong launch, with sales now lagging behind expectations amid a thin software lineup. Shares in the company fell 6.3 percent in Tokyo after the news broke.
