PlayStation is still a pioneer in the gaming industry. The launch of PlayStation 5 and the state-of-the-art PSVR2 were major disruptions in the gaming world. What sets Sony apart from its competition, however, is its willingness to expand to other domains. The Japanese company made this evident when it gave its crown gems, The Last of Us and Uncharted, live-action adaptations of their own.
Following the success of these live-action adaptations, new rumors suggest PlayStation is now entering the world of anime. If the rumors are to be believed, not one but multiple titles from the Japanese company will be getting their own anime shows.

PS fans agreed the series will have to go head-to-head with series like Castlevania and League Of Legends: Arcane to make a name for itself. While fans were debating on this, another anime leaker has given them surprising news.
