This scenario might ring a bell: Steam users are expressing their discontent with a PlayStation first-party game available on the PC platform due to its requirement for a PSN account. This time, PC gamers are review-bombing God of War Ragnarok over the necessity to log in with a PSN account.
God of War Ragnarok currently holds a Mixed status on its Steam page, largely due to these review bombs concerning the PSN requirement, as reported by PC Gamer. A recent negative review humorously remarks, "I love having to sign in to PSN to play a single-player game. I'm glad you didn't learn a single thing from what happened with Helldivers 2."
Earlier this year, Sony reversed the mandatory PSN sign-in for Helldivers 2 after facing significant backlash from Steam users. However, the situation with God of War Ragnarok is somewhat different, as the PSN requirement was announced before the game's release on PC. Sony had previously confirmed that a PSN account would be necessary when the game was first announced for Steam.
Sony is expanding its game offerings to the PC platform, and several PlayStation titles, including God of War Ragnarok and the remake of Until Dawn, will require a PSN account to function on both Steam and the Epic Games Store.
For those playing God of War Ragnarok on PC, the game experience should be less frustrating. The PC version includes unlocked frame rates and support for ultra-widescreen monitors.
Looking forward, Sony Santa Monica is reportedly developing a new intellectual property, separate from the God of War series. However, no official details about this project have been disclosed by Sony.
