Helldivers 2 Pulled from 177 Countries, Faces 215,000 Negative Reviews Over PSN Requirement
May 6, 2024, 03:51 PM
Helldivers 2, a popular video game, has been pulled from sale in 177 countries due to a new requirement for a PlayStation Network (PSN) account, sparking widespread backlash and negative reviews. The game, previously available globally on Steam, faced criticism after Sony implemented a policy necessitating a PSN login for gameplay, which is not accessible in many regions. This led to a significant number of negative reviews, totaling over 215,000. In response to the controversy, Steam has been issuing refunds to players, regardless of playtime, and discussions between Arrowhead, the game's developer, and Sony are ongoing to find a resolution.
