Hunziker’s new Venture Beat , sees him overseeing deals to bring titles from outside the world of Sony to PS4, PS Vita, and PSVR platforms.“Early on, most of my focus will be on two key areas,” Hunziker says via GamesBeat. “The first is making sure our partners, whether they’re a publisher with millions [of dollars] invested in a major franchise or a bootstrapped startup led by a team of passionate developers, get support to easily develop for our platforms and get rewarded for creating great experiences for our fans.”Hunziker fills the vacancy left by Adam Boyers , who parted ways with Sony in July to become CEO at Iron Galaxy (of Killer Instinct fame)."After an incredible journey here at PlayStation, I've made the very hard decision to return to the world of game development," Boyes said in a series of tweets announcing the news.
