PlayStation PC ports have been released steadily these past few years, and it seems like the process to get any approved is relatively straightforward if the port doesn't cost much to develop.
According to leaked documents that emerged online today following a ransomware attack against Insomniac Games, as reported on the ResetERA forums, any port that requires less than $30 million to develop only requires email approval to get funded. This was the case with the Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart port, which cost far less than $30 million.
Speaking about PlayStation PC ports, some of them have done extremely well on the market. Another leaked document reveals how Horizon: Zero Dawn is the best-selling port with over 3 million units sold, followed by God of War and Days Gone. As for future unannounced ports, the documents reveal none of them, although other files in the leak confirmed how there already are PC builds for Marvel's Spider-Man 2 and Marvel's Wolverine.
Given how easy it would be to get funding for PlayStation PC ports if they don't cost over $30 million, it is surprising how Bloodborne is still not getting ported. Given the game's technical issues, however, it is likely a port would be complicated and require much effort and funds to be pulled off. A PC port of one of FromSoftware's most unique titles has been rumored for a very long time, but nothing has materialized so far.
The next major PlayStation PC port coming next year is Horizon Forbidden West. You can learn more about the second entry in the series by checking out our review.

Jeff Grubb has expressed his belief that Tecmo Koei and Capcom already have Switch 2 dev kits.
Some leaked details for Marvel’s Wolverine suggest that the game will make use of advanced features, even features that aren’t possible on current PlayStation 5 hardware.
If you received new Lego sets for the holidays and you've been busy piecing them together for the past week, pick up the pace. I'm kidding of course, take your time, but Lego has just made a lot of new sets available to kick off the new year. Most of the sets had been revealed ahead of time, but now that 2024 is officially underway, they're available to buy through the official Lego store.
Today is the last day of 2023! New Year's Eve is here, and that means most holiday deals will come to an end after today. If you've been holding out on an item, now is most likely your last chance to grab it with the holiday sales. The best deals for Sunday, December 31, include The Last of Us Part I, Nintendo Switch Sports, Spider-Man: Miles Morales Ultimate Edition, the JBL Charge 5, Persona 5 Royal, the HORI Split Pad Pro, and more.
2023 is nearly over, meaning the time for “year-end awards” is almost finished. We’ve seen plenty of awards given out so far via “major ceremonies” and websites doing their own giveaways. But a certain group of fans feel rather left out. Specifically, fans of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 feel the game should be getting more attention and “award love” than it has over the last three weeks. At The Game Awards, the title was nominated for several categories but didn’t win a single one, which left many fans angry. However, on the PlayStation Blog, the fans made their voices heard, and the game did MUCH better.
Every year, players get the chance to vote for their favorite PlayStation games in different categories. Several titles have won in various categories, with Spider-Man 2 voted the PS5 Game of the Year.
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2’s budget and release window for its PC release has leaked
Needless to say, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 has been a major success, but surprisingly, Insomniac hasn’t really revealed what their plans might be for post-launch content. 2018’s Spider-Man had the paid The City That Never Sleeps season pass, but nothing of the sort has been announced for Spider-Man 2.
The Marvel's Spider-Man 2 PC port is currently in the works, and development will apparently be completed by the end of the current fiscal year, according to some leaked documents.
While the big three console makers will sometimes crow about sales when it suits them, getting exact sales numbers out of Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo is difficult. That said, thanks to the huge Insomniac Games ransomware leak, which has revealed the studio’s lineup for the next decade and much more, we now have solid sales figures for PlayStation up until approximately a couple of years ago.
