Planetside 2 may come to consoles
Sony Online Entertainment is mulling over bringing their latest F2P MM-opus, Planetside 2 to the PS3 or possibly the PS4.
The main reason is that they have announced that they are now seeing the bulk of their revenue coming from their console releases. Some 70 percent of their income from DC Universe Online is coming from the PS3 it is looking like it might be a smart move to bring Planetside 2 to the PS3 as well.
SOE boss John Smedley explained, "We have two operating free-to-play games on PS3 right now DC Universe and Free Realms. So we're uniquely placed having helped to build the PlayStation Network in the first place. PSN has the ability right now to handle free-to-play games, and it does so very well."
"For me my computer is in my office at home, and my TV is in my living room," he continued. "Consoles are a different type of gaming for me, and I play different games on different devices but I think the free-to-play model works awesomely on consoles and I think you're going to see more of it as time goes on. It's going to be much more prevalent on consoles."
The latest figures reported by Polygon state that Planetside 2 currently has 1.6 million registered users and over a quarter of a million daily users.
