Former PlayStation Boss: Exclusivity Hurts Live Service Games, Widening Multi-Platform Funnel is Key
- Former PlayStation boss says exclusivity hurts live service games by limiting the player base
- Opening up games to more platforms widens the funnel and brings in more players and revenue
- Helldivers 2 succeeding on both PlayStation and PC simultaneously proves this point
- Even for single-player games, there are still benefits to being on multiple platforms
- Shorter exclusivity windows or day-one multi-platform releases may become more common
