Sony has created only 4 new franchises in 6 years of PlayStation 5's existence, two of which are already dead

News 1

Players suddenly noticed that in the 6 years since the launch of PlayStation 5, Sony has launched only 4 new franchises for its platform: Returnal, Saros, Concord, and Destruction AllStars.

At the same time, two of them have effectively ceased to exist: Concord was shut down shortly after a highly unsuccessful launch, and Destruction AllStars also failed to achieve significant success.

Moreover, players point out that Returnal and Saros were created by the same studio — Housemarque — and use a similar gameplay formula.
