With PC Ports Scrapped, Sony Brings Back 'Only on PS5' Disclaimer 1

There’s an interesting little nugget in the trailer for Sony’s new PS5 monitor which we didn’t notice at first glance.

If you watch the video in full, you’ll notice there’s a disclaimer when Ghost of Yotei is shown simulated on the screen: “Game available only on PS5.”

Now normally we wouldn’t blink at this – it’s pretty ordinary small print, and it’s true that you can only play Sucker Punch’s sequel on the PS5 right now.

But as X (or Twitter) user Zuby Tech notes, this statement takes on a greater meaning when you consider the wider context of Sony cancelling its single player first-party PC ports.

While the company’s yet to comment on that in a public capacity, reporting from the uber-reliable Jason Schreier confirms this is the case. In fact, Ghost of Yotei is one game that allegedly was planned for PC, but the port has since been cancelled.

I do think, considering the monitor can also be used with a PC, this is probably more just legal language to stress Ghost of Yotei is currently only available on the PS5. But I do think it’s pertinent when you factor in Sony’s decision to step away from storefronts like Steam.

I’m sure this isn’t the biggest or most important story I’ll write all week, but I do think it’s worth flagging.
