Multiple developers have spoken out about Sony’s PlayStation 5 platform where it’s very hard to get noticed. Compared to Xbox Series X it looks like smaller indie games are supported more on other platforms.
Developers have spoken out about how the Ps5 is very hard to work with and Sony isn’t doing anything to help them. This is coming from multiple developers in the gaming industry.
With the next generation just starting it would seem that Xbox is the best place for gamers and developers to be. Microsoft has really made the Xbox the best place to play games.

Should Sony change the way they treat indie developers?
@🇸🇦susleyvis ibanez and is halo hits 120fps it’ll be 900p
@kingmilwaukee flight simulator is next gen only coming to xbox series x/s, same with starfield, even if forza and halo are crossgen so are god of war ragnarok and horizon forbidden west, xbox is going to have more next gen only exclusives starting with flight sim, why do you care about ray tracing, your just reaching at this point.
@kingmilwaukee your delusional and just reaching hard at this point and you don’t even know if that game will be 900p cause im sure that game will be 4k 120 fps, you went from complaining about xbox not having any exclusive release dates too now reaching hard and complaining about resolution specs and exclusives that there showing.
@kingmilwaukeeok your just reaching hard at this point.
People publish indie game in steam.
😆 🤣 😂
Has anyone noticed the tone change over at Digital Foundry when they compare ps5 to series X. Lol I use to think they were biased now it seems they give far better reviews for series x compared to ps5. And the ps5 fan boys hardly go there anymore, the traffic is very low and I hardly see hateful bitter childish comments from them. They are a small group because majority of Ps5 owners own series X. So they seem fine its the ones who only own ps5 and worship it like a God
LLLLLLLL
I think Jim Ryan’s Sony is simply going on the narrative from the Sony community and media banging on about AAA exclusive titles, therefore that’s what Ryan’s Sony is only interested in producing. Just watch a Crap gamer vid to see what I mean.
Sony had the backlash coming i mean first the fee for crossplay then 70 bucks for a game and then this
Sony treats the game industry like the movie industry, but they are very different beasts.
Some of my favourite games are indie games and I love the fact that Xbox support indies so much.
1 minute and 30 seconds and he has repeated the same shit over and over…
Why does this feel like the early PS3 vs 360 era again?
Right now Mircosoft have the serious advantage especially with Gamepass. However this generation is far from over and I feel Sony have the chance to turn the PS5 around if they do the following.
1. Remove Jim Ryan from SIE and get new more consumer friendy CEO.
2. Buff up PS now so it’s on par with Gamepass.
3. Make a smaller more powerful PS5 (like Mircosoft did with the Xbox One X).
4. Give devs more freedom to make the games they want.
5. Allow Cross Play.
6. Stop with the censorship .
If you own a PS5 or are planning on getting one please speak up against and don’t support these bad business practices otherwise it will only get worse.
So bad they have the best game studios and even studios wanting them to aquire them. Article would have been written by an xbox fan
Here he is. The ponie that does not believe sony can do any wrong. At least ask Jim ryan for some lube while his going at it behind you guys 😂😂
@Ama Tmc here he is the bellend who like Phil Spencers love juice and shit games
Wow what a fanboy talk here, it’s al media BS. Just enjoy your console/or PC.
I expected better from sony, but after these past few months I think it’s a repeat of Xbox one/PS4 release but reversed. Xbox has the upper hand this generation. At least for the time being
Zalker. Stop hating on sony and playstation.
Honestly I felt Sony start to care less about there customers during the ps4 gen, to see it transitioning into the ps5 gen and twords smaller developers shows they DO have an issue and it needs to be addressed by Sony leadership, with that said all I have is praise for the 360 that has occurred with Microsoft just wow they didn’t just make a turn around I mean they are going HARD
Playstation sux. Glad I switched to xbox wen the 360 came out. Never looked back since thn. Teamxbox teamnintendo.
This channel is more of a playstation hate channel than an xbox news channel. So sad smh
Kena, sifu, stray, little devil inside? Lmaoo
Jim Ryan needs to go. He knows nothing about Gaming or Gamers.
The article is so comical at the least. If devs are sick of ps5 then y are there no exclusives on the Xbox??? 6 years away right lol
Playstation is falling off
I’m fine with Sony’s arrogance,
As it means I can look forward to some fantastic indie games on my Xbox. Sony’s loss is my gain.
And people will remember things, if an indie dev grows into a major studio, it will remember who’s good to work with and who’s difficult. So they could ignore Sony with their huge AAA games.
Im a Sony guy through and through as sad as this news is of hearing developers not getting backing from Sony or poor communication is bad, but hey I still support Sony sure I don’t agree with everything they do or want but it’s not a make or break thing for me yes it sucks indie developers aren’t getting the full attention as bigger indie developer I’d say that’s the norm and sad truth of the business even with Sonys ways of concentrating on one they think or know will be a successful hit this shouldn’t be a reason to neglect the smaller teams.
Sony should go back to what they’re known for.. audio.
Reminds me of typical Sony arrogance has reared its head again. Pass the popcorn, please.
I feel like Kena Bridge of spirits is one of them I want that game to be on PS store
Zalker and crapgamer competing over the the boldest fanboy youtube titles
The indies developers are the back bone of the gaming industry
This video pretty much confirms everything that we suspected all along; that Sony has moved away from small budget indie games and now focuses entirely on AAA exclusives. And to be honest, I think it’s the only thing that Sony fans want because exclusives is the only thing they talk about.
Playstation — pretty damn good.
Sony — The fucking worst!
Its not impossible to hold those 2 opinions at the same time.
I thought was pretty obvious from the beginning that Sony wanted to have the blockbuster type of market and Microsoft wanted to focus on the quantity of games. Both are great within their own respects and will be successful either way. I think this view of Sony making things “difficult” for the indie is a little blown out of proportion. I simply believe Sony just doesn’t have the support for indie developers rather than refusing to help. Every console has their market folks.
Well well well.. Sony starting to show it’s cracks 🤣🤣
Thanks-you Zalker good idea continue helping sony to improve and crunching Microsoft
90 % of my games are indie titles, the few AAA titles I do own feel like they lack any kind of originality so my most played games are indie titles, the guys who developed returnal should of never let themselves be bought out by Sony they did fine on there own, don’t even get me started on ‘The last of us’ I like that game once upon a time now I absolutely hate that series, days gone it’s so much better and original, now there trying a remake and tv series? Just like me and many others no one cares for it anymore, anyway my point is I support originality and independent titles and think very little of AAA titles, they have too much money behind them and zero creativity and resort to stealing ideas from newly developed companies with hardly any funding and alot of creativity and are basically stepped on by big budget bully tactics, I don’t know if my comments will be criticized or hated but I have noticed this in the gaming industry
Lol they XBots are so hurt they have to talk shit all the time. Sony is destroying Xbox bc they select what games are good to show and promote they dont just want trash games ones win ones dont… is reality
Xbox out here just collecting W’s like they’re Infinity Stones. Reminder Switch OLED is $350 and XSS is $300 let that sink in
Notice how these indie devs say they’ve been having problems for «a long time» how long have these problems been going on. What if Jim ryan’s predecessor was also doing this if i remember i never saw indie devs at any e3 showcases under Sony.
Nah let family friendly games to Xbox ans Sony keeps with AAA blockbusters.
I agree when there’s a problem it should be highlighted so that changes can be made for the betterment of gaming… my problem is when you highlighting problems make sure your name is there so that we all know who Sony is alienating so we as consumers can assist. When your name isn’t there how would we know if Sony isn’t treating indies developers good? Walker reporting Decelopers SICK of Sony’s PlayStation 5 highlighting Sony but the developers who’s reporting names are no where to be seen in the article or in Zalker’s report… You don’t hate it when someone accused you of doing something bad to another person but did not tell you who that person is you’re doing bad to? Sony had to be the most evil Corporation when developers are scared to blame themselves when reporting injustices Sony inflicted on them🧐🧐🧐 Interesting…
Xbox is king its so easy to see its clear as day.
Sony fanboys you’ve just been hand the truth from the industry, Sony just don’t care about the small company Dev,s
I bought the series x because I was sick of no backwards compatibility on the PlayStation. PlayStation now blows. The series x is freaking amazing. Everything I’ve played on it looks amazing and loads really fast. Freakin power house
Come home to @IDXbox
Haha you know it honestly doesn’t surprise me to hear that Sony is hard to work with. Look at the hoop they made devs jump through for cross-play, not surprising they have one for visibility on the storefront too. I’m glad people are starting to speak out, if Sony doesn’t change I think devs should let their games do the talking by skipping out on certain platforms.
Playstation defence league has found the chat. Filling it with lies and toxicity as usual.
Got to break a few eggs to make a good omelete
I be piss if they did this to ace combat 8 if it does happen since the first was way back in 1995 on the ps1.
My advise to anyone is if you own a PS4 or 5 sell it and upgrade to a Xbox SX
Sony need to pull them self together, but they are still selling like crazy, and their brand alone is enouth for some people which is insane.
It don’t matter. Sony knows they will still sell 100 million PS5’s so why stop.
This is way off topic but, Ben Simmons isn’t worth a second round pick. He’s way overrated, just like Kobe Bryant, and Allen Iverson. Go xbox!
Horizon looks so boring.
This dude is saying that it’s a bad thing that Sony doesn’t want shity games on there console. That’s a little weird. I love the rout they are going. I have the series x for indie games and ps5 for the exclusives. I think he as Xbox should demand more exclusive games. It’s been years since they released 1.
Sony has quality control. Thats how they manage to produce all those AAA games.
Maybe if the indie devs slapped a £30 charge on there games for a «upgrade » on PlayStation 5 that might help? 🤔🤔🤔Or Sony should realise how much of a god tier dick jim ryan is
Ah, it’s about «indie» developers. Not about regular developers. (Yes, this changes the narrative!) Because Sony is picking what they think will do best and you can’t blame them. It’s like a scout watching young basketball players for example and looking for some talent. They are not willing to just have everything on to its storefront. I mean, did anyone see what is in the Nintendo e-shop sometimes? Like seriously, some of these games, like that game «calculator». Like, this isn’t something Sony want in their store and i can’t blame them. So no, in my opinion, let them stay picky. So we have at least one company that looks out for the best quality in Indie games as well as in AA/AAA games!
I totally agrre with Somy decision, I’ll tell you why:
Indie developers right? Small games…if they’ll support all of them ,playstore will become a google store infrastructure. Look at google store and all …all the shut games ,made only for profit and for 2+ children to get ads in their face.
There is an unwritten law here…the service provider (sony,google etc.) has a duty to restrict all these scammers,because that’s where it will leed to,if there are few restriction, indie scammers will get there.
Hmm … imagine … maybe there is some day where you can upload your game / prototype, things where you try out things directly to a console .. .. like you can on itch.io … sure there will be a lot of crap out there … but again a lot or opportunities.
Behind the scenes Microsoft is backing Sony into the “Better Exclusives” argument and preparing to go Medieval on them.
Microsoft poached Sony’s head of recruitment and she’s bringing all her old friends over to Xbox.
9:27 What?
I think it is not about how hate of them to indies but it is about what the meaning of indies that console want. For playstation maybe their type of indies is like more to realistic graphic double and triple a type. while nintendo welcoming all type of indies because they are portable console while xbox i dont know because they not have objective of indies because of their gamepass also not actually have specific objective.
I just say ori.
