PlayStation is launching two new live service games this current fiscal year, which ends March 31, 2023.

PlayStation boss Jim Ryan has revealed the new information during a financial briefing, as first reported by VGC. Although the company currently has one live service franchise in MLB The Show, a slide during the investor meeting shows there are plans for two further live service games this fiscal year.

Interestingly, PlayStation plans to release multiple live service games each year for the subsequent four fiscal periods. There are plans for two such games this year, three the following year, a whopping four the year after, and finally two in the fiscal year during 2025. That's a lot of live service titles on the go at once.
