As next-gen discussion continues to point us toward what we can expect from the PS5 and Next-Xbox, a new report suggests Sony’s first-party efforts are now allegedly focusing mostly on PS5.

Of course, we still have three big, announced first-party games set to come to the PS4, but, if Sony is doubling down on next-gen efforts, could these games be making the jump to next-gen?
