Jim Ryan to Step Down as PlayStation CEO in 2024

On April 26th, 2021, Sony Interactive Entertainment (SIE) announced that Jim Ryan will be stepping down as President and CEO of PlayStation in March 2024. Ryan has been the head of PlayStation since April 2019, and has been a part of the PlayStation family for over two decades.

Jim Ryan joined Sony in 1994, and has held various roles within the company. He was appointed as the President and CEO of SIE in April 2019, and has since been responsible for the success of the PlayStation brand. Under his leadership, PlayStation has seen tremendous growth in both hardware and software sales. The PlayStation 5 was released in 2020, and has become one of the most successful consoles ever released.

Jim Ryan has been a strong advocate for the PlayStation brand, and has been instrumental in driving innovation and growth. He has worked hard to ensure that PlayStation remains at the forefront of the gaming industry, and has been a key figure in the development of new technologies such as cloud gaming and virtual reality.

With Jim Ryan’s departure, SIE will be looking for a new leader to take the helm of PlayStation. It is likely that Sony will look for someone with a strong background in gaming and technology to fill the role. Whoever takes over from Jim Ryan will have big shoes to fill, as he has been an integral part of the PlayStation family for over two decades.

Jim Ryan’s departure marks the end of an era for PlayStation, but it also marks the beginning of a new chapter. With new leadership comes new opportunities, and it will be interesting to see what direction Sony takes with PlayStation in the future.
