Celebrate Jim Ryan’s Legacy with Iconic Digital Bobblehead

A stunning digital tribute to outgoing PlayStation bigwig Jim Ryan is now available for those who wish to celebrate the suit’s legacy – in style. Players can pick up the collectable, posed like a modern-day Napoleon, through the digital platform PlayStation Stars; all you have to do is play a game Ryan “championed” during his tenure.

Eligible games run the gamut from The Last of Us: Part II, God of War Ragnarok, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, Gran Turismo 7, Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, and somewhat ominously, Destiny 2. Ryan will be remembered for many things, but his $3.6 billion acquisition of developer Bungie is a legacy his successor will no doubt be grappling with for many years to come. The Jim Ryan Bobblehead’s description proclaims: “Help us celebrate Jim Ryan’s 30 years at PlayStation by playing any of the many impressive games he championed as CEO and get a special Digital Collectible. Happy retirement, Jim!”

A man who believed in generations, Ryan managed to salvage the launch of the PS5 despite the unforeseen challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic. Ryan was awarded a “one-of-a-kind” PS1-themed PS5 at his Tokyo leaving party. He later announced company-wide layoffs, cutting reasonably close to the bone in some cases. Ryan wraps up a 30-year career with PlayStation in just a few days, with Sony Group Corporation President, COO and CFO Hiroki Totoki taking the reigns until a permanent successor is chosen.
