Sony wants to create a new digital ecosystem, powered by Epic Games

“Sony and Epic have both built businesses at the intersection of creativity and technology, and we share a vision of real-time 3D social experiences leading to a convergence of gaming, film, and music. Together we strive to build an even more open and accessible digital ecosystem for all consumers and content creators alike,” said Tim Sweeney, Founder and CEO of Epic.

Does tencent own any stake in Sony?

Idk but who fucking cares, epic is still owned by based Tim. Sony and Tencent are the same when it comes to power lvl both minority stakeholder

Cool, still using steam exclusively though.

Tim Sweeney is now worth at least 10 billion according to Sony.

The fuck is going on in this god forsaken industry.

I wouldn't even care of Sony games were EGS exclusive I would just die laughing because more Sony games are on PC.

You mad bro ?

They're literally admitting that Tom Sweeny is about 1/9th of Sony worth. GAming industry is putting far tomuch emphasis on 'platforms' and 'game engines'. It's gonna lead to shit eventually

sony owns less than 2%.
Tencent owns 40%

Doubt it, they still have no cart in their own store.

ThirdLife

but Horizon is on Steam. What does this 250 million investment even get Sony?

-Bloodborne
-Demon souls remastered
-Last of Us 2
-Knack
-Spiderman
-All Sony games pulled from valve store

Epic exclusive forever
$30 each

This ones on me.

Careful Microsoft
Careful Valve


This Sony X Epic partnership starts. NOW.

Gravity rush on pc soon. I'm feeling it.

less then 2% stake in the company

it's all going to depend on how well HZD and Death Stranding do on both platforms

and guess what, Steam sales are going to dwarf EGS sales

This is how much sony paid for not making it epic exclusive.

That explains Sweeney's dick riding for the past few months.

Microsoft x Valve vs. Sony x Epic

So what do we think Zig Forums?

the ultimate corporate worship war
nobody wins in the end

>Epic exclusive forever
Torrents too!

Where does Nintendo slot in?

>Sony investing in Epic means all their games are coming to EGS
Stop being retarded Zig Forums. This primarily has to do with Unreal Engine in movies and Fortnite content.

It's not about sales

It's not about money

It's not about ethics

Or exclusives

It's about destroying valve's monopoly.

It's about making them compete again.

It's a necessary evil.

You'll thank me later.

Does it really matter when the end result is the worship of corporations who don't give a shit about us just getting more and more intense until basic communication is impossible?

with Apple

sorry Tim, you've already failed

^

Not yet.


Not yet.

>gives tim more money so he can keep giving out free games
Thanks sony.

>Cancer and Aids teaming up

Like pottery

And yet Sony is also more cancerous. Tencent doesn't want me to lick nigger anus

yeah, this is what I figured would happen when the EGS launched; it can't last through direct competition with steam, so it'll carve out a niche for itself by getting most of the notable console ports.

.

a whole 7 million dollars from third party games for the entirety of 2019 before even factoring in what they paid for exclusivity, amazing.

This

All these numbers tell me is that people only use their launcher for free shit.

>108 million users
>only $680 million made

no, they want you to lick chink boots

what's with Sony investing in Chinese companies lately?

CONSOLE ENJOY .. 15min game , pay more , .. an so on

Well, as long there is some benefit to the epic store, sure.
