A few days ago, PlayStation Studios announced that they had acquired Texas-based Bluepoint Games, the developer of Demon’s Souls Remake.

We know that Sony has also acquired Returnal developer Housemarque, Nixxes Software and UK-based developer Firesprite.

PlayStation currently has 16 internal teams, and PlayStation Studios President Hermen Hulst says they’re open to more teams.

In an interview with IGN, Hulst said:

“We are open always to building new relationships or bringing people in-house, but only if we adhere to the quality-first mentality and the right kind of innovative content, new experiences, diverse experiences…”

“Because all of these teams, they share a lot, but they’re also very different from one another, and that’s what I really like. And I think that’s what the PlayStation audience, the PlayStation fans, deserve, it’s that diverse slate of games coming out of PlayStation Studios.”

Also he added:

“We’re not buying teams to just be bigger. We’re only buying teams because we feel that together, we’re going to make something that is going to be even better than if we did it separate from one another.”

It looks like Sony’s acquisitions will continue. We hope Sony doesn’t interfere with the creative processes of the teams it incorporates, because the gaming world needs creative and impressive games.
