Salute.

SID: Happy to have you, we're going to do a lot of catching up. But I heard you had some news for us here today?

SHU: Yes, I have an announcement to make. I'm leaving Sony Interactive Entertainment on January 15 2025… it's like announcing the launch date of a new game, [something] I haven't done for a long time [laughs].

SID: You've been with Sony Interactive for so long. What's guiding the decision and the timing?

SHU: I've been with PlayStation from the beginning, and this is my 31st year with PlayStation. And when I hit 30 years, I was thinking, hmm, it may be about time for me to move on. You know, the company's been doing great. I love PS5, I love the games that are coming out on this platform. And we have new generations of management who I respect and admire. And I'm so excited for the future of PlayStation.

So you know, PlayStation is in really good hands. I thought, okay, this is my time.

End of an era
