Japan-based technology giant Sony has also been interested in the mobile game industry for several years. In fact, there have been some concrete steps taken in this regard. There will be those who remember; PlayStation Studios President Hermen Hulst made a statement on the subject last year and said that PlayStation games could come to mobile. Now, there have been new developments regarding this.
Job postings on both LinkedIn and other platforms were searched for the company’s mobile gaming unit. Researches reveal that the brand is planning more than expected for the mobile game industry. Let’s all take a look at what Sony’s mobile game plans are.
It will include games from both original and third-party developers
Examining Sony’s 17 active and passive job postings one by one, The Verge explained that Sony works very systematically for the mobile gaming world. Because the company is trying to establish a team that will measure which games are more suitable for mobile and which PlayStation game can have the expected effect on mobile in the recruitments it has made and wants to do. Moreover, it is stated that this team will be in contact with both Sony’s own companies and third-party development studios. From this we understand that not only PlayStation games, but also third-party games will be adapted for mobile.
The names that Sony has already recruited are also noteworthy. For example, Nicola Sebastiani, who was responsible for Apple Arcade content, is the number one in Sony’s mobile gaming division. In addition, Olivier Courtemanche, who is the senior manager of Zynga, one of the largest mobile game companies in the world, now works for Sony. Courtemanche is just below Nicola Sebastiani. Justin Kubiak, who has done Samsung’s game-oriented collaborations in the past, will now do this for Sony. When we put all this together, it reveals that Sony takes the mobile gaming world very seriously and will try to do its job justice.
