The movie will be produced by Jennifer Klein and Turner's production company, Vendetta Productions, whilst Asad Qizilbash and Carter Swan will be producing on behalf of Sony PlayStation Productions.

According to the entertainment website, the movie will be a "love ballad to motorcycle movies" in a post-pandemic "modern-day western".

A new page has appeared on PlayStation's website dedicated to its games for PC. Currently, the three upcoming games listed are Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered, Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales, and the Uncharted Legacy of Thieves collection. Miles Morales' PC release is currently listed as "Fall/Autumn 2022", while Uncharted still has a tenuous and non-committed "2022" next to its name.

Sony has previously said it expects nearly 50 percent of its game launches to be PC and mobile by 2025. As well as that, the company revealed it expects to make a tidy $300m on PC games alone this fiscal year (which ends March 2023).
