God Of War Ragnarok Review-Bombed On Steam Because Of PSN Requirement

As a seasoned gamer with decades under my belt, I find myself once again at odds with the gaming industry’s latest quirk – the insistence on PSN accounts for PlayStation first-party games on PC. It’s like inviting a gate-crasher to your house party who refuses to leave until you’ve finished your favorite snack.


Players using Steam have expressed their frustration over a PlayStation exclusive game available on the PC storefront, as it necessitates a PSN account. In this instance, gamers are flooding reviews for God of War Ragnarok with negative feedback due to the login requirement.

On Steam, the action-adventure game God of War Ragnarok holds a blended rating due to review bombs stemming from the PSN (PlayStation Network) requirement for play, as reported by PC Gamer. For instance, one recent unfavorable review humorously comments: “I truly enjoy having to log into PSN to play a single-player game. It’s wonderful that you didn’t pick up on even one lesson from the Helldivers 2 situation.

Initially, Helldivers 2 did not require a PSN sign-in due to a change in policy following strong fan criticism on Steam earlier this year. In contrast, God of War Ragnarok, which was released last week on PC, has always been planned to necessitate a PSN account since it was announced for Steam by Sony Santa Monica. (Aside: Here are the PC specifications for God of War Ragnarok.)

Sony is expanding its game offerings to PC platforms, and for games like God of War Ragnarok and the remake of Until Dawn, you’ll need an active PlayStation Network (PSN) account to play them on Steam and the Epic Games Store.

When you’re playing God of War Ragnarok on your computer, it would be great if the game’s sidekicks were less bothersome. On top of that, the computer version of this game offers flexible frame rates and compatibility with ultra-wide screen monitors.

Moving forward, it appears that Sony Santa Monica studio might be developing a fresh concept, beyond the realm of God of War. As of now, Sony has not disclosed any details regarding this project. For additional information, feel free to read TopMob’s God of War Ragnarok review.
