Former Blizzard President: Consoles Will Never Die
Over the past few years, we've heard time and time again how console platforms are dying, but the head of Blizzard Entertainment Previous Mike Ybarra It is believed that this will not be the case any time soon.
In a tweet on the platform X Earlier today, the former Blizzard Entertainment president discussed Sony’s approach to exclusive games, saying it’s the right way to go if the company plans to win. In that regard, he said that Sony not only knows how to make hits, but also how to pick them out from the crowd, and it’s definitely paying off.
Several previous analysts have said that platforms like PlayStation and Xbox are not the future and are dying, but He answered Mike Ybarra In his opinion, it will never die and that it is the expectations of losers, and these words indicate an indirect mockery of Microsoft, which takes a different approach and strategy with its platforms and exclusives.
Sony has always been able to produce successful exclusives on its own like Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, Rise of the Ronin, and Stellar Blade on PlayStation, making it the only platform to own to play some of the best titles, while one of the most anticipated games that will launch on Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S this year is exclusive to Microsoft for only a few months, as the game will launch on PS5 sometime in spring 2025.
It will be interesting to see how Sony and Microsoft approach the next generation, and with us being halfway through the current generation we think it's fair to think a few years from now what the next generation will look like.
