The recent Helldivers 2 PC fiasco is the latest example of why PlayStation needs to finally give its online services a 2.0 upgrade.
It’s been a rough few days for Sony. After a plan to implement mandatory PlayStation Network accounts for Helldivers 2 players on PC went haywire, one would imagine that the company is having a lot of talks behind closed doors right now. If there’s one thing I hope Sony takes away from everything, it’s that PlayStation’s online services need a 2.0 revamp.
Recommended Videos This fiasco with Helldivers 2 is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the issues the current online infrastructure desperately needs to resolve — and it isn’t just limited to PSN accounts. It’s time for PlayStation to modernize its online services if it’s moving into the world of PC gaming.
This also spotlighted the fact that PlayStation, a global brand, still limits PSN accounts to a relatively small list of countries. It is not acceptable that no one on the continent of Africa has access to PSN when PlayStation games are being sold there. PlayStation putting its games on PC is a huge step in the right direction for the accessibility of its titles, but not if its online service can’t keep up.
