Sony continues its courtship of indies with deal to bring GameMaker Studio to the PlayStation 4

The console-gaming arms race to amass as much indie-developer support as possible continues.

Sony revealed today a partnership with technology firm YoYo Games to offer a native PlayStation 4 version of the GameMaker: Studio development kit. This new solution, co-developed by Sony and YoYo, will enable studios to export their GameMaker projects to the PS4. The game engine is available for free to any Sony Computer Entertainment-licensed developer.
