In an interview with Gamasutra, Adam Boyes, vice president of Sony Computer Entertainment America, said that the company is looking into a program that allows developers to release games that are still being made, similar to Steam Early Access. “That’s one of the massive conversations we have internally — that, at what point does [a game meet standards of release]?” Boyes says, “We still at some point ensure that we’re being mindful of the consumer.”
Boyes stated that Sony is currently working out problems with this program. “We obviously have our tech requirement checklist that people have to adhere to.” he said, “So we’re internally discussing, what does that list look like this? What are the caveats?”
