In the strategy section of the Game & Network Services division, which is responsible for PlayStation, the company changed its wording compared to last year. The phrase about the goal of “achieving sustainable and profitable business growth” has been replaced with “achieving sustainable business growth.”
Also, the 2026 version removes the mention of Sony's plans to “continue to release first-party games on multiple platforms, such as PC.” This may indicate a refusal to release major PlayStation single-player games on PC with a delay.
At the same time, a new point has been added to the document: “Sony uses artificial intelligence to unleash studio creativity and further enhance the PlayStation experience.”
The report notes that the PlayStation division's headcount has grown for the first time since 2023.
