Let's pretend Sony acquires SquareEnix, Capcom and Konami.

i pray to god they dont acquire any "big" studio. Dont get baited into bankruptcy, so you sony: continue to make great games with what you have or with smaller studios. moneywise they'll get baited into a firefight that they can't win financially

Would that level the playing field?

Turning major 3rd parties into second parties favors no one. I would prefer Sony NOT go the MS route. MS only does this because they have no other recourse.

Sony already has 4 multiplayer shooters in production. They don’t need to revive dead franchises

Killzone 2 wasnt bad, it was the last PlayStation game I enjoyed.

they need to add it to their list they will need some hitters, whatever these unnamed games are gotta hit. Gamepass is just too much value.

I think what they got coming out is gonna be better. Rainbow Six and Splinter Cell guy is at Guerrilla working on a multiplayer, and they probably using the Decima engine from Horizon and Death Stranding.

Killzone just kinda ran its course.

Lets imagine OP shuts the fukk up

More I think about I think Sony could just buy up smaller studios like ember labs , deviation games. I have no clue why y’all acting like Sony would go broke buying a publisher especially a small one like Capcom or Konami

 

[MarcP]

That's gonna cost them 25B at the minimum.

They not gonna pay that much when they can just keep buying timed exclusivity from those publishers for waaaaaaay less money.

Yeah. Makes no sense. Sony still have the best studios in the industry, once they start rolling out their multiplayer games they’re gucci. Theres nothing any of those companies can offer them that make them worth spending so much money on.

Sony needs a few good shooters and a dedicated fighter.

For the price of capcom they can buy ember lab, deviation, haven, Firewalk, illfonic, arrowhead, camoflaq, maybe even an arc sys.

I’d prefer sony to slowly grow their own studios

 

[Red Shield]

Only one that would be worth it is Capcom

Square is really just Final Fantasy and maybe Nier at this point..

Konami has let too many of their ip's shrivel up
