DC Universe Online and PlanetSide 2 will be released for PS4 later this year, Sony Online Entertainment has announced.
“Since the launch of the original EverQuest, we have pioneered major shifts in the development of MMOs and videogames as a whole, and now we’re bringing our titles to the forefront of next-gen gaming,” said John Smedley, president of Sony Online Entertainment.
“Players are evolving and want a variety of ways to access and play games. Our goal is to deliver epic gaming experiences that players crave while harnessing the awesome power and technology of this incredible new platform. We are thrilled to bring two of our most popular free-to-play games to PS4.”
“DCUO was the first MMO available for PlayStation 3, and its thriving community is proof that we can create an exciting and robust console experience for players,” added Laura Naviaux, senior VP of global sales and marketing at SOE. “Players have been asking for PlanetSide 2 to be playable on consoles, and PS4 is the ideal platform to showcase the game’s beauty, depth and frenetic open world combat.”
Both games will be available for free via digital download with optional in-game purchases.
The announcements follow that of free-to-play shooter Warframe, which was confirmed as a launch title for the PS4 yesterday.
