PlayStation CEO and President Hideaki Nishino recently made comments that recommit the company to its live service efforts.

Nishino made these comments in an interview with Famitsu that was translated by Wccftech. “We believe that live service games are content that attracts users on a global level, so we want to continue to revitalize the market through both first-party and third-party content,” he explained, before going on to highlight how focus will be split between older titles and new ones like Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls.
