Earlier this year, we brought you word that all of Sony’s fully-owned studios are working on PlayStation 4 games . This was a point reiterated during Sony’s Gamescom press conference, when the company showed a map of the world with all 14 of its developers, reassuring anxious gamers that many more triple-A games were forthcoming.

In a conversation with IGN, Sony’s Shuhei Yoshida confirmed yet again that all 14 of his studios are toiling away on PlayStation 4, but he also noted that these studios could also concurrently be working on other platforms. When asked if any of the studios are working on Vita games, considering Vita’s extremely bleak triple-A catalog in 2014, Yoshida said this:“So what we have made the statement about PS4 is, actually, all of our studios are working on some PS4 titles. But that doesn’t mean that they are all exclusively working on PS4 titles. Many of them work on PS3 titles as well as PS Vita titles.”This is exciting news, as long as we’re not talking about studios already working on PS3 (Polyphony Digital, Studio Japan) and Vita (Guerrilla Cambridge, Media Molecule). Vita in particular is getting a ton of indie support, but very little from major publishers. On the other hands, PS3 still has five big exclusives coming up this year – Puppeteer, Rain, Ratchet & Clank: Into the Nexus, Beyond: Two Souls, and Gran Turismo 6 – but more could still be on the horizon.Will we get PS3’s version of God of War II (a post-new console exclusive) next year alongside a slew of first-party PS4 games? We'll find out soon enough.
