This means that even though the game would be available for people using other consoles and devices, PlayStation will have some restricted DLC material available for its players. This is sort of similar to the case of Hogwarts Legacy. PlayStation had some leeway with the wizarding game, and there was even exclusive in-game content for PS players. Some might even have thought Hogwarts Legacy was a PlayStation exclusive.

Nevertheless, this helped Sony sell more PlayStation consoles during the run of Hogwarts Legacy. Thus, the attempt to bring the Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater remake into the console may as well be to cater to that marketing strategy. However, an official confirmation has not yet been made. But it would be interesting to see Konami and PlayStation joining hands to bring the game into the platform with exclusive content.
