The collaboration between Sony and FromSoftware, which has led to iconic titles such as Bloodborne and Demon’s Souls, is currently experiencing significant expansion. According to the recent financial report from Kadokawa, which owns FromSoftware, Sony will play a key role as publisher and distributor of the upcoming games from the Japanese studio. This relationship is further strengthened, given that Sony is its largest shareholder, allowing for a synergy that could redefine the landscape of video games and entertainment in general.
The collaboration with Sony will allow Kadokawa to move more strategically
Kadokawa has expressed its intentions to enhance the creation of intellectual properties, focusing on synergies in anime, movies, and video games, thanks to the financial and strategic support of Sony. This partnership will not only be limited to FromSoftware titles but will also involve other teams, such as Acquire and Spike Chunsoft, which could result in an enriching diversification of their product offerings.
Currently, FromSoftware is working on multiple projects, with Elden Ring: Nightreign at the forefront, which promises to be a major sales success in 2025. This new title, which incorporates cooperative and roguelike elements, is part of a broader strategy by Kadokawa to increase its game production and quality, anticipating a 44.5% increase in profits compared to the previous year.
Analysts suggest that, with this alliance and the growing portfolio of projects in development, Kadokawa could be on the threshold of an unprecedented period of economic success. This contrasts with the path that has led FromSoftware to become one of the most influential companies in the field, with a legacy that continues to enrich video game culture.
