<p>We&#8217;ve asked Sony if it can provide more details.</p>
<p>There have been <a href="https://gamedaily.biz/article/594/jim-ryan-ascends-to-top-of-playstation-as-console-transition-looms">frequent changes</a> of leadership among the PlayStation team in recent years, including the <a href="https://www.engadget.com/2017/10/03/andrew-house-playstation-sony/">exit of President Andrew House</a> in favor of John Kodera, who promptly swapped roles with Jim Ryan this February.  It&#8217;s now Ryan who&#8217;s the frontman for Worldwide Studios news, not the iconic Layden.  We&#8217;d add that the <a href="https://www.engadget.com/2019/05/21/sony-playstation-5-next-gen-console-details/">PlayStation 5 launch</a> is expected in late 2020 &#8212; now may be a prime opportunity for a changing of the guard at Sony, whether it&#8217;s voluntary or not.</p>
<p>Whatever prompted the decision, it marks the end for an era for the PlayStation brand.  Layden has been with Sony in some form or another for roughly 32 years, including a stint as the comms assistant for co-founder Akio Morita.  His gaming career took off in earnest when he became a producer at Sony Computer Entertainment in 1996, and rose through the ranks to become SIE&#8217;s President in 2014.</p>
<p>For many, he was the quintessential public face of PlayStation, presenting at major events and explaining key decisions.  More importantly, though, he also oversaw first-party game development during much of the PS4 era.  <em>Horizon Zero Dawn</em>?  <em>Uncharted 4</em>?  <em>The Last Guardian</em>?  While Layden wasn&#8217;t directly involved in making those hits, they all arrived under his watch.  His successor&#8217;s main challenge is to keep that momentum going.</p>
<div align="center">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
<p dir="ltr" lang="en">It is with great emotion that we announce that Worldwide Studios Chairman Shawn Layden will be departing SIE. His visionary leadership will be greatly missed. We wish him success in future endeavors and are deeply grateful for his years of service. Thanks for everything, Shawn!</p>

<p><em>Wall Street Journal</em> reporter Takashi Mochizuki <a href="https://twitter.com/mochi_wsj/status/1121687826293071872">tweeted</a> the comments, which came from a SIE spokesperson following Sony&#8217;s investor call earlier today. The company reiterated its reduced profit goals for next year but also promised to invest the difference (31.1 billion yen, or $278 million) between last year&#8217;s operating income and its current outlook for 2019 into developing its next PlayStation console.</p>
<p>In an <a href="https://www.engadget.com/2019/04/16/sony-first-playstation-5-details/">earlier interview</a> with <em>Wired</em>, Mark Cern noted that the console won&#8217;t be coming any time in this year, but it is likely to be later into the year than many fans would have hoped.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s turning into an increasing interesting period for console gamers, as Nintendo works on upgraded Switch consoles, and Microsoft dips its toes into the world of disc-less games machines. And let&#8217;s not forget: streaming games services from the likes of Google. Sony seems aware of the challenges and is taking it very seriously.</p>
