Business Standard|September 17, 2024
Intel lost out on a contract to design and fabricate Sony's PlayStation 6 chip in 2022, which dealt a significant blow to its effort to build its fledgling contract manufacturing business, according to three sources with knowledge of the events.
How Intel lost Sony PlayStation business

The effort by Intel to win out over advanced micro devices in a competitive bidding process to supply the design for the forthcoming PlayStation 6 chip and Taiwan semiconductor manufacturing company as the contract manufacturer would have amounted to billions of dollars of revenue and fabricating thousands of silicon wafers a month, two sources said.

Intel and AMD were the final two contenders in the bidding process for the contract.

Winning the Sony PlayStation 6 chip design business would have been a victory for Intel's design segment and would have doubled as awin for the company's contract manufacturing effort, or foundry business, which was the centrepiece of Intel Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Pat Gelsinger's turnaround plan.
