Sony ditches PSN requirement for some PC games

31.01.2025 - 11:57 pcgamesinsider.biz

Sony Interactive Entertainment is removing the requirement for users to have a PlayStation Network account to play some of its PC titles.

In a post on PlayStation Blog, the studio business group's SVP and head of publishing Asad Qizilbash wrote that while users were previously mandated into using a PSN account, now it is an option.

They add that gamers that do opt to use a PlayStation Network account for its PC releases will receive "added benefits" such as trophies.

Players that use a PSN account with Marvel's Spider-Man 2 on PC will receive the Spider-Man 2099 Black Suit as well as the Miles Morales 2099 suit.

There's no word yet as to whether Sony is fully removing the use of a PlayStation Network account for all of its future titles, but that does appear to be the implication of this announcement. "Game creators at PlayStation Studios will continue to work on bringing more benefits to players who sign up for a PSN account," Qizilbash wrote.

Gaslands: Refuelled Review

The year is 2018. Earth has been under Martian occupation for 19 years. The war left much of Earth destroyed and its population enslaved by the corporations of Mars and their relentless efficiency.

Fire up your engines and load that mini gun, for we’ve got some cash to win.

Kronologic: Paris 1920 Review

Growing up I played a lot of Clue and then Clue Master Detective with my brother. In high school, I was introduced to the movie Clue, which remains a delight. After college, I was gifted Clue: Simpson’s edition and I have been part of a few Murder Mystery parties throughout my life. So the Murder Mystery deduction games have been a staple in my early gaming life.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is already getting a live-action movie from the folks behind the Tomb Raider and Just Cause adaptations, even though the RPG isn't out yet

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has more than piqued our interest over here at ol' PC Gamer, but while Sandfall Interactive's extremely stylish RPG shows a lot of promise, I've gotta admit I was surprised to find out that a live-action movie adaptation was already in the works. The game isn't out until April this year.

This Minecraft creation blots out the sun for the villagers below, they surely praise it as God, but we know it really to be a functioning 32-bit computer with 2 kB of RAM

Building a computer is one thing. Designing a computer from scratch is another. Doing both of those things in the confines of Microsoft's smash-hit sandbox game Minecraft is, I want to say, absurd? The folly of man? An affront to God? Yet here we are, and the Minecraft computer is nearly complete.

Alas, it's been estimated that WoW's $90 FOMO dinosaur mount probably made Blizzard around $15-17 million, and at this point I think we all deserve to be here

Dear reader, I have a lot of positive words to say about World of Warcraft recently. The way Blizzard and its developers have clawed their way back from the pits of hell in Shadowlands is downright commendable, and the game is in one of the best states it's been in in years. Not perfect, mind you. Rewards systems are still a little wobbly, and there are your usual barrel of glitches, but it's all a damn sight better.
