![]() And in the way Sony particularly focused on timed exclusivity deals, they do so in the context of other video game consoles, i.e in comparison with Xbox and/or Switch. You don't need contracts signed showing obligation to release on other platforms, but again if you're signing a timed exclusive deal, the logical thought is to conclude that the game is set to eventually arrive on other platforms. Otherwise you wouldn't refer to it as a timed exclusive, it'd just be an exclusive. If you sign a timed exclusivity deal, it's 99% usually because it has intent to be released on other platforms, and you want a window to keep it exclusively on your platform and in your ecosystem. IIRC the game is still slated to come to other platforms sometime next early next year, I would be surprised if this spot in a short advert was indicative of any purchase because that'd also likely mean Sony cutting out said other platforms for getting a game it'd otherwise receive, and that would upset a decent bit of folks considering such a pre-existing deal is honored in other instances (i.e Psychonauts 2, Deathloop etc.). ![]() ![]() Apparently Sony want to improve relations with indie devs, so if they only have enough to slot two games and Miles may've been redundant due to No Way Home, pick Kena and kill two birds with one stone. So I figure they'd want to showcase gaming exclusives that would fit the bill, and of those their best choices are Rachet, Kena and Miles Morales. That said, I highly doubt it's a sign of any acquisition that clip was focused on Sony as a whole and with a lot of filmic/cinematic properties. It's kind of illegal to tease an acquisition unless the deal has already been signed, is it not? It's very hard to see if Ember Lab is a public or private company, but if they're public, and this is some way to tease an acquisition, then we'd of seen something reflected in their stock prices prior to this.
