Sony's PC gaming policy sparks controversy among players. The company's requirement for PSN tethering, even in single-player games, coupled with regional service limitations, restricts access to new releases.
Sony recently announced policy adjustments. While PSN tethering for PC remains, certain concessions have been made. These games will not require mandatory PSN tethering:
- Marvel's Spider-Man 2
- God of War Ragnarök
- The Last of Us Part II Remastered
- Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered
Players who choose to tether to PSN will receive these bonuses:
- Marvel's Spider-Man 2: Early access to the "2099" suit line for Peter Parker and Miles Morales.
- God of War Ragnarök: Early access to the Black Bear armor set, the "Lost Things" chest, and resource packs.
- The Last of Us Part II Remastered: Bonus points for unlocking features.
- Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered: The Nora Valiant costume.
In November investor discussions, COO Hiroki Totoki acknowledged player resistance to PSN connection requirements, citing security and order as justification. While he referenced service-based games, he failed to clarify how single-player titles like Marvel's Spider-Man 2 and God of War Ragnarök benefit from mandatory PSN account linking.
Times have changed, and this policy continues to be debated.
