Sony Buys Another Gaming Studio

Sony Buys Another Gaming Studio

Last week Sony bought the Finnish studio Housemarque, the creators of the popular Returnal. After the sale went final, Sony Japan mistakingly said on Twitter that they bought the studio behind Demon’s Souls Remake and Shadow of the Colossus Bluepoint. However, that wasn’t the case so we can all take a breath of relief. And now another studio joins the Sony family.

Dutch studio Nixxen Software is from now on a part of Playstation Studios. Plenty of you probably never heard of Nixxen Software before and that’s because they’re what’s known as a conversion studio. Nixxen works with PC-ports and is responsible for the PC editions of the Tomb Raider games as well as Deus Ex: Mankind Divided and Marvel Avengers.

A good guess is that Sony bought Nixxen Software to help with getting more Playstation games on PC and just make their games run smoother in general.
