In a surprising turnaround, Sony's CEO Hiroki Totoki boasted about the company's record PS5 sales and the success of its titles, including Astro Bot and Helldivers 2, at The Game Awards 2024. Astro Bot's four award wins, highlighted by Game of the Year, emphasize the growing prestige of family games, a genre Sony aims to expand within their portfolio. Moreover, Helldivers 2's recognition for ongoing multiplayer gameplay showcases the company's commitment to live-service titles despite recent setbacks in that category.
In addition, the live service game Helldivers 2, released in February last year, won the Best Ongoing Game and Best Multiplayer Game awards.
Totoki's indication that Sony intends to make more family games like Astro Bot as part of a drive toward a broader title portfolio.
