Read from Pushsquare:

A job listing for a Head of Mobile role, situated at the company’s headquarters in San Mateo, states that candidates will “own and develop the mobile games strategy for PlayStation Studios and help build a foundation for future growth opportunities”. It continues: “You will lead all aspects of the expansion of our game development from consoles and PCs to mobile and live services with a focus on successfully adapting PlayStation’s most popular franchises for mobile.”

It sounds like this is in the very early stages, as it notes that potential recruits will “be responsible for building and scaling a team of mobile leaders and will serve as the head of this new business unit within PlayStation Studios”. So it’s something that, with the right personnel, the company is looking to get off the ground at the moment – in fact, the job posting refers to the development of a mobile product roadmap within a “three-to-five year timeframe”.
 
I feel Sony wants to attract more people to play Sony games since mobile gaming is one of the most popular gaming platforms, and many mobile gamers may not buy a PS5 this year because of game console shortages caused by Covid19.
