Helldivers 2, Spider-Man 2, and more PlayStation titles have been freed from their region lock prison on PC

Your mileage whitethorn alteration though

Sony person been making a batch of mistakes implicit the past mates of years, including things similar mistakenly reasoning they could merchandise 12 unrecorded work games by 2026, but the much instantly annoying 1 is its full PSN thing. I astir apt don't request to punctual you of that full Helldivers 2 fiasco, wherever they tried to marque logging into a PSN a request for those connected PC and aboriginal scrapped this due to the fact that it went down horrendously. However, determination has been 1 different snag that came with each this PSN nonsense: portion locking.

Despite being capable to play Helldivers 2 without a PSN account, it was inactive unavailable successful astir 180 countries, each of which you can't marque a PSN relationship successful (it's inactive imaginable to play the crippled with an relationship connected, which volition apt person factored into the reasoning down portion locking the game). This has applied to Sony's different PC ports of their PlayStation published games, but now, arsenic shared by deals wizard Wario64, it seems a fistful of them are present (mostly) portion fastener free.

There are 4 total, including the aforementioned Helldivers 2, arsenic good arsenic God of War Ragnarok, The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered, and Spider-Man 2. Worth keeping successful caput that these are each games that had their PSN requirements lifted earlier this year. From what I tin archer determination haven't been immoderate changes made to different PlayStation games based connected their logs connected SteamDB, but I'm besides not wholly definite which games were and weren't portion locked, truthful your mileage whitethorn alteration with their wider portfolio.

It's a bully determination guardant astatine least! Certainly seems similar PlayStation are conscionable shooting themselves successful the ft by limiting wherever their games tin really beryllium bought. Now the large question is whether oregon not their adjacent large crippled (that isn't Marathon) connected PC volition person a PSN request astatine all.
