PlayStation FINALLY removes frustrating PC requirement after a year of player complaints

Sony mandated that PC players create a PlayStation Network (PSN) account to access exclusive titles starting in May 2024, which led to negative reactions due to PSN's inaccessibility in many regions. The requirement was enforced for popular titles like Until Dawn, God of War Ragnarök, and Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered. After feedback from the PC gaming community, Sony has lifted the PSN requirement for certain titles, including Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, God of War Ragnarök, Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered, and The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered, making PSN accounts optional. Players with PSN accounts can earn in-game rewards such as exclusive costumes and boosts.

Helldivers 2, PlayStation’s Fastest-Selling Game Ever, Has Lost 90% Of Its PC Players

Helldivers 2 experienced a sharp decline in its PC audience, with only 45,315 players currently active.

Despite setbacks, there are potential avenues for Helldivers 2 to attract new players, such as releasing the game on Xbox or offering it as a PlayStation Plus free game. Sony's next steps with the game will be crucial as they aim to replicate the success of popular titles like Fortnite.
