Sony could’ve had its own popular proprietary game engine and metaverse. Instead, it just let it slip through its fingers. Media Molecule is ending live support for Dreams, its highly ambitious game-creating and playing tool for PS4, on September 1. Its servers are staying online for now — and it has a few more content updates in the pipeline before then — but after August, there will be no new tools, ports, or events for Dreams. That means it’s not coming to PS5, PlayStation VR2, and, most critically, PC.…
