Sony Caves in War With Fans Over PSN Accounts for Helldivers 2

PlayStation reversed its decision to require Helldivers 2 players on PC to link their accounts to a PlayStation Network account after significant backlash from the community. The initial plan, announced on May 2, faced heavy criticism for its late implementation post-launch and the inconvenience it posed, especially in regions without PlayStation Network access. Following a storm of negative feedback, PlayStation announced on May 5 that it would not proceed with the account linking requirement, acknowledging the need to better understand PC players' preferences.
