Backflip by Sony
PlayStation fans can now breathe a sigh of relief as Sony announces a major backflip following a weekend of turmoil for the company. The controversy arose over the requirement for PC players of the PlayStation-published game, Helldivers 2, to use a PSN account.
Player Outrage
The drama unfolded when it was discovered that PC players would be forced to use a PSN account to access Helldivers 2, potentially blocking some fans from playing. Despite initial advertising, the requirement had been turned off since the game's launch in early February.
Social Media Backlash
Players expressed their frustration by flooding the game's Steam page with negative reviews and taking to social media to voice their discontent. Sony faced backlash after pulling the game from sale in over 170 Steam regions, leading many to believe the requirement was permanent.
Sony's Reversal
In a surprising turn of events, Sony announced on social media that they would not be moving forward with the account linking update for Helldivers 2. The statement reassured fans that their feedback had been heard and that the controversial requirement had been scrapped.
Future Plans
Sony plans to keep players informed about future updates for Helldivers 2, which has garnered positive reviews and a large player base since its launch on PC and PS5 in February. The decision to reverse the requirement showcases Sony's responsiveness to player feedback and commitment to enhancing the gaming experience.
