It’s not clear if Sony’s driveless PS5 Digital Edition is more or less profitable. Mind you, this is for the standard PS5, the one where Sony has to supply a 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray drive and pay as much as $8 per console in licensing fees, and charges you an extra $100 at retail. (We bemoaned the needless drama of buying a PS5 just days ago!) Needless to say, that’s fast - happening before the company has even managed to catch up with demand, in the midst of a global chip shortage. The PS5 should hit break-even in June, and become profitable the very same month, according to a presentation the company shared with investors (PDF) during its investor day today. As with all such advisory services, past results are never a guarantee of future results.In February, Sony revealed it was selling the PlayStation 5 at a loss - but that’s imminently about to change.

But Naughty Dog said the PC port would follow “shortly after” that.ĭisclaimer: EconoTimes provides references and links to selected blogs and other sources of economic and market information as an educational service to its clients and prospects and does not endorse the opinions or recommendations of the blogs or other sources of information. “Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection” is slated to launch on PS5 first in early 2022. But with the information leaking through ESRB, the companies might issue a clarification soon. Sony and Naughty Dog have yet to confirm the status of the multiplayer mode for the PC port and PS5 version. “The Lost Legacy” was launched with support for the “Uncharted 4” multiplayer. The multiplayer introduced different game types, including Command, Ranked Team Deathmatch, Trials, and the capture the flag-esque Plunder. “Uncharted 4” featured an online multiplayer mode that allowed players to join a team of 10, who can assume the roles of different characters from the game. Simply put, a multiplayer mode may not be in the works. However, on the left side of the screen, ESRB notes that the collection has “no interactive elements.” That means the copy of the games they reviewed did not have gameplay that would allow fans to play with others. The board’s description of the bundled games has nothing that will surprise long-time fans. The ESRB has already rated “Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection” as a game for teens.
Since then, fans have been asking if “Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection” will include the multiplayer modes introduced in “Uncharted 4” and “Uncharted: The Lost Legacy.” Now, it appears that they have the answer through the Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB). In a blog post, Naughty Dog provided several game screenshots, but details about the game collection’s features and content are still under wraps. When Sony held a PlayStation Showcase last September, the PlayStation maker released the first trailer for the “Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection” to confirm that the two latest “Uncharted” installments are coming to PC and PS5. But it now appears that the bundle, officially named “Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection,” might not feature a multiplayer mode. One of the biggest announcements Sony made during an event last September was that the beloved “Uncharted 4” and “Uncharted: The Lost Legacy” titles are launching on PC and getting a proper PS5 version.
