In an interview with VentureBeat, former SIE CEO Shuhei Yoshida revealed that when Jim Ryan became the head of PlayStation in 2019, he forced Yoshida to either take charge of independent games or leave PlayStation.

"I had no choice at the time. When Jim asked me to work in an independent gaming job, my choice was to either do the job or leave the company."

Since 1993, Shuhei Yoshida joined Sony Interactive Entertainment as one of the initial members. Since the initial concept, he has been an important member of the PlayStation brand.

In November 2019, Shuhei Yoshida stepped down as the head of SIE's global studio, focusing on cultivating external independent game teams.Jim Ryan chose to let Hermen Hulst replace Yoshida.

After Yoshida Shuhei resigned from the position of global studio head, Sony started the era of instant service gaming for Jim and Hermann, but now everyone has seen it, it is a complete disaster.

On January 15, 2025, Yoshida Shuhei resigned from Sony.
