It seems Ghost of Tsushima on PC will have the same PSN purchasing restrictions that caused massive backlash to Helldivers 2.

Didn’t they say that a PSN account won’t be required for the single player content? Seems kinda like they’re getting ready to shoot themselves in the foot again.

Yep. Always online DRM. Or at least online activated

Edit: it’s just the multiplayer

So Helldivers all over again?

So they want those countries to pirate it?

“Check out the confirmed list of countries that are technically restricted from purchasing the game due to its PSN account requirement (these countries officially isn’t supported by PSN).”

I thought they came out and specifically said it didn’t have these requirements after the helldivers stuff.

edit: I see it’s for the multiplayer sections and I do recall the prior announcements being about no PSN required for single player.
