Persona 4 Golden success spurs Sega to consider more PC portsDon’t take it Persona
Don’t take it Persona
BetweenPersona 4 Golden,Catherine Classic, andYakuza 0, Sega’s recent PC ports have been such a success that they have decided to keep them coming, and are planning to factor the PC into their future releases from the start.
“We remastered Persona 4 Golden, a title previously sold on the PlayStation Vita, and released it for sale on Steam this fiscal year. Because of the game’s critical acclaim and its low selling price, sales were much stronger than expected. We will continue to actively promote porting previously released titles to Steam and new platforms. We are also negotiating with platform holders for new games in the future, and we’re considering ways to sell under favourable conditions for each title. Among them are measures such as preparing PC versions of the titles from the beginning, with multi-platform releases in mind.”

This absolutely is all long overdue, and the very concept of platform exclusivity is more archaic than ever, especially for behemoths like Sega. But let’s be positive. This is good news, and particularly welcome in the run-up to a batch of new consoles. We’ve had several long-running series likeYakuzaand Monster Hunter suddenly leap to PC in recent years, and I’m happy to see more of them show up, particularly at a budget price. I certainly hope that continues.
