Sony expects an even better year for PlayStation 5 first-party games

Sony reported its annual financial results this morning, and the company’s gaming division is doing well. PlayStation 5 hardware sales are on a record pace. The company’s services and digital sales, meanwhile, are delivering huge profits. But if what you care about is the games, Sony Interactive Entertainment provided a reason to get even more excited about the future of PlayStation 5 first-party releases.

As part of its outlook for fiscal 2021, Sony highlighted a number of positive and negative indicators for its operating profits. For example, it expects the profitability of the PS5 hardware to improve over the next year. Alongside that, the company also noted that it expects to see an “increase in revenue from first-party titles” compared to fiscal 2020.
