Nice, it’s already banned where I live. Can’t wait to pirate it.

It costs them money to include, so they’ll take it out eventually

Is it announced to have it? Don’t see anything on the Steam store page, games with Denuvo generally have a little warning there

hopefully not. the PSN debaucle is a bit suspect though. Sony’s being a big douche lately.

It’s definitely an anti piracy measure. Which sucks complete fucking ass

Edit: it’s multiplayer only

There will definitely be a way around this easily for pirates. They may believe that if will stop piracy but it’s really just going to be anti consumer

I already have a Steam account, I’m not giving yet another company my details and login data just to play a game on a platform I already have an account for. Nope.

So you’re gonna buy it from the PlayStation store and play it on PS5?

What’s the point of region restricting PSN accounts?

It’s kind of weird too since they sell PS5s in regions where PSN isn’t officially supported.

Except getting more user information, I don’t really see the big advantage for Sony so it’d be interesting to know why they want to require a PSN account in countries where you can’t get one.

Also I’d want to know why you can’t get one in some countries.
