Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) boss Andrew House has said that the console maker will endeavour to release more HD Collections provided there’s still “significant demand” for them.
The company has released a number of HD revamps as of late, including Collections for both God of War and Sly Cooper, with more in the pipeline such as ICO & Shadow of the Colossus, and Konami’s Silent Hill and Metal Gear Solid Collections.
However, speaking to CVG, House made it clear that Sony wasn’t in the business of milking the re-releases, suggesting repurposing content across the bulk of the PlayStation brand’s extensive library would "be a negative trend."
"Clearly there’s a consumer demand for [HD updates], but what we’ve done is to say, ‘we’ll do this where it’s appropriate, where there is a sense of a franchise with multiple titles that are associated with it, and where we’ve heard from consumers that there’s significant demand’," said House.
"But I don’t think we’re in the business of repurposing content across the whole library because yes, I think that would be a negative trend and I think would be received negatively also.”
