Sony’s music division launches Tiny Metal for PC and Switch this month

In terms of big, anticipated video game releases, 2017 is over for most people. But I’m personally looking forward to the launch of Tiny Metal, which is a turned-based military tactics game that has a lot in common with Nintendo’s Advance Wars games. What’s especially interesting about this game, which debuts December 21 for PC, Nintendo Switch, and PlayStation 4, is that Sony is publishing it. But not Sony Interactive Entertainment.

Sony Music Entertainment Japan has launched a new gaming label called Unties, and it is publishing games for more than just Sony platforms. Tiny Metal is Unties’ first game, and the company is launching it on PC and Switch at the same time as the PlayStation 4 version. I’ve reached out to Unties to ask what its relationship with Sony Interactive Entertainment is like, and I’ll update this post with any new information from the company.
