Sony moves PlayStation business to Silicon Valley
Sony announced Tuesday it is moving its PlayStation business to Silicon Valley and consolidating its game console offerings under one roof.
The Japanese entertainment and consumer electronics giant said that as of April, its PlayStation hardware, software and online businesses will be unified in a new company called Sony Interactive Entertainment.
The freshly formed company will bring together Sony Computer Entertainment and Sony Network Entertainment International and be based in the northern California city of San Mateo.
"By integrating the strengths of PlayStation's hardware, software, content and network operations, SIE will become an even stronger entity, with a clear objective to further accelerate the growth of the PlayStation business," said Sony Computer Entertainment global chief executive Andrew House.
