Long ago we could doubt whether mobile devices would end up replacing consoles. Well, to be honest, I think that time will never come, since conventional consoles also improve over the years, but I do believe that an iPhone can easily replace portable consoles like the PSP or PS Vita. The problem for this to be a reality is precisely the games, but the latest information on Sony It makes us think that the moment could be closer than we think.
This weekend, the Japanese game maker confirmed who is working for launch more than 5 games for iOS and Android. The deadline is 2018, that is, Sony will release 5 games in which we will be able to see some of the characters that we love so much on the PlayStation platform in 2017. But what games will they launch during the next 15 months?
Sony will release games for mobile devices, but which ones?
Sony announced that it would release those 5 games before 2018, but did not go into details. In fact, even if he spoke of 5 titles, it is not ruled out that they plan to launch more games, which would be very good news for fans of some of the characters owned by Sony.
The point is that, although it seems that the sales of the PlayStation 4, like its predecessors, are good, in Japan they have to struggle to sell units. With this in mind, Sony has to react and what better way to get sales than by launching games for devices that we always carry with us? This is something that SEGA has already done, who has come to launch Mega Drive games for iOS, and Nintendo will also do.
Now that we have official confirmation, we just have to wait to see which are the first titles to reach the App Store. Personally, I would like it to come God of War, although having the platinum trophy in its 6 installments I am not entirely sure of this. It wouldn't hurt if they re-created "God of War: Betrayal" (video), a game that is only available for Java phones without which the beginning of God of War 2 is not understood.
What Sony characters would you like to see on your iPhone?
