Even More PlayStation Acquisitions Are Coming According to CEO Jim Ryan

During his appearance on the PlayStation Podcast, Ryan said why more PlayStation acquisitions are coming, claiming that it’s how the brand will be growing. Here’s a quote from the podcast (via VGC):

“We’re in a really good place with PlayStation Studios and have been for the past few years. The critical success and the commercial success of the games that they’ve been making… that has given us permission to invest heavily in content creation.”

“We’re growing our studios organically and we’re growing through acquisition. We acquired five studios during the course of 2021, we’re in discussions with Bungie and we have more planned. This is getting us into a virtuous cycle where success begets success.”
