Jim Ryan will soon step down as president of Sony Interactive Entertainment and head of PlayStation. For such reason, the companies decided to throw a surprise party for the executive. This to give him the farewell he deserves and celebrate his career of almost 30 years.
To surprise him, PlayStation prepared a great gift: a one-of-a-kind PlayStation 5. In addition, they gave out cookies that caught the attention of many gamers, as they are decorated with the face of the controversial executive.
PlayStation held a party in honor of Jim Ryan
Several pictures of the party that PlayStation organized for Jim Ryan are circulating in social networks. The images were shared by company employees who had the opportunity to attend the event and spend some time with the executive.
To honor Ryan's career, PlayStation designed a PS5 with a retro style, reminiscent of the first PlayStation. The company modified the system's classic colors, made a custom DualSense and even designed a special box that emulates PS1 packaging.
Another curious detail is that partygoers were able to savor cookies decorated with the executive's face and a message of thanks. Ryan was accompanied by other PlayStation executives and famous PlayStation developers.
Jim Ryan will retire in March 2024 and, in the meantime, is supported by Hiroki Totoki, who took over as SIE president in October.
"After 30 years, I made the decision to retire from SIE in March 2024. I have enjoyed the opportunity to have a job I love at a very special company, working with great people and amazing partners. But I am finding it increasingly difficult to balance living in Europe and working in North America," Ryan explained in September.
