Sony has assured fans that PlayStation Home remains a business priority following reports that the virtual world has been put on the backburner.
According to a recent report in Edge, director Pete Edwards announced that the service is no longer a "priority" for the platform holder. However, Sony has now claimed that the executive was "misquoted" and "misrepresented".
"Edwards was saying that monetising Home was not as big a priority as building a great platform, with a compelling environment and a strong community. Home is still a top priority for Sony and will continue to release quality content and provide a positive experience to our users," read a post on the official PlayStation forums.
Home is a community-based social gaming networking service launched by Sony Computer Entertainment last year.
A similar service for the PSP known as RooM is currently undergoing beta tests in Japan.
