PlayStation Account Needed for Last of Us 2 PC Release
The gaming world is buzzing with the news that The Last Of Us Part 2 Remastered is making its way to PC. This popular single-player game, known for its stunning visuals and gripping story, will require players to log into a PlayStation Network (PSN) account on Steam. This requirement has sparked some curiosity, as the game doesn't feature any multiplayer modes.
The Journey to PC
The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered is the latest PlayStation exclusive to transition to PC. It joins the ranks of other big titles like Ghosts of Tsushima, Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered, and God of War. These games have been well-received by PC gamers, but they all share one thing in common: the need for a PSN account to play.
PSN Login Requirement
On January 9, the Steam and Epic Store pages for The Last of Us Part 2 went live. Both pages confirmed that a PSN login is necessary, even for this single-player adventure. This requirement isn't new, as Sony previously faced backlash for similar plans with Helldivers 2. Although Sony reversed its decision for Helldivers 2, it seems committed to this requirement for other games.
Why the Change?
Creating a free PSN account is simple, and logging in is quick. However, it's puzzling why Sony insists on this for single-player games. In the past, games like Miles Morales, Returnal, and Days Gone didn't require a PSN account on Steam. Now, Sony seems eager to integrate PC gamers into the PSN ecosystem.
Potential Implications
The need for a PSN account might complicate things for gamers who prefer to play without additional logins. It could also pose challenges for future gameplay without mods. This move by Sony is seen as an attempt to expand its network, but it raises questions about necessity and convenience for players.
