The requirement of a PSN account to play God of War Ragnarok has sparked outrage among players, with many expressing their disappointment through negative reviews. This is not the first time a PlayStation first-party game has faced backlash on Steam due to a PSN account requirement. Earlier this year, Sony canceled the mandatory PSN sign-in for Helldivers 2 following fan backlash.
God of War Ragnarok is not the only PlayStation title that requires a PSN account to play on PC. The remake of Until Dawn will also have a mandatory PSN log-in to work on Steam and the Epic Games Store.
While the PSN account requirement has sparked controversy, the PC edition of God of War Ragnarok offers some exciting features. However, it remains to be seen how the backlash will impact the game’s overall reception.
According to reports, Sony Santa Monica is working on a new IP outside of God of War. However, details about the project are scarce, and nothing official has been revealed by Sony.
