Sony forces PC players of Helldivers 2 to have a PSN account


Those who play Helldivers 2 on Windows PC must have a PlayStation Network account beginning June 4. Developer Arrowhead Studios has been caught in the crossfire.

Arrowhead, meanwhile, is caught in the crossfire of doing business with a major publishing partner and social media platforms like Discord which, as reported via IGN, has been firefighting the decision on their behalf. “Sony has a dedicated team, a ban appeal process, and tools to take action on player reports,” Helldivers 2 community manager Baskinator said on Discord, “and it’s all connected to having a PSN ID.” Since 2007, Brian has continued to add to a long list of publications and institutions, most notably as Editor of the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games, winning multiple awards for his writing and digital broadcasting efforts.
