Shawn Layden says that Horizon Zero Dawn‘s success has to be taken into consideration.

Layden’s interview with Glixel had the following comment: „Of the 3.4 million copies of Horizon we sold, about 915,000 were digital. This kind of shift changes everything. It changes the publishing model, it allows smaller players to put out games, it affects DLC, and it has a huge impact.” (Affecting DLC? Does that comment mean that we will get even more?)

He also talked about being involved with indies, and the PlayStation VR: „We still work with a lot of indies, but it’s slowing down. It ebbs and flows. We’re seeing a lot of indie activity in VR because they can do meaningful content with smaller teams there.”

The shift was expected to happen, but still, we see a ton of indie games in the PlayStation Plus freebies each month. Not in June, though!
