Sony is ditching the PSN login requirement on some of its PC games
Sony is making a PlayStation Network login optional for several of its single-player games on PC. The company says that you'll no longer need one for God of War Ragnarök, Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 (which arrives on Steam and the Epic Games Store this Thursday) or The Last of Us Part II Remastered (which hits PC on April 3).<br /> However, those who do sign in with a PSN account while playing those titles will get some in-game goodies such as cosmetic outfits, early unlocks of certain gear and other resources. They'll also be able to unlock trophies and have access to a friends management feature.<br /> For months, players have been protesting the need to link their PSN account to their Steam or Epic Games Store purchases to play single-player games. It at least to some degree makes sense for multiplayer elements of games like Ghost of Tsushima. But as evidenced by Sony swiftly dropping the requirement from Helldivers 2 after a major backlash from players, the PSN account linking strategy has by and large been a mess. <br /> Meanwhile, Sony has revealed more details about what you can expect from Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 on PC. The port from Nixxes includes multiple ray-tracing options, along with upscaling and frame generation. The game also has pretty modest minimum specs, so it might still run decently on a laptop that you've been rocking for several years.<br /> <br /> This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/gaming/pc/sony-is-ditching-the-psn-login-requirement-on-some-of-its-pc-games-183259677.html?src=rss
