Solomon Thompson / 6 months ago
In a move that caught gamers by surprise, the PC version of Ghost of Tsushima was abruptly delisted from Steam across more than 170 countries. The decision came shortly after Sony introduced a requirement for a PlayStation Network (PSN) account to access multiplayer features, causing frustration among the gaming community.
Delisting Follows Sony’s Recent Changes
Just days after the similar delisting of Helldivers 2, Sony has removed Ghost of Tsushima’s PC release from Steam. This action affects countries without PSN support, complicating access for many potential players. The game, which was set to launch on May 16, is now unavailable in these regions, with no clear explanation from Sony.
Impact and Player Reaction
The removal from Steam has led to significant backlash, with some fans considering boycotting the game. Retailers like Green Man Gaming have started canceling pre-orders due to the new multiplayer requirements. This move has not only disappointed fans but also raised concerns about the future of other PlayStation games on PC.
As of now, Sony has not provided a formal response regarding the delisting. The gaming community is left waiting and hoping for a resolution that will allow them to enjoy Ghost of Tsushima on PC. With its successful history on PlayStation, the game’s absence from Steam is seen as a significant loss for PC gamers.
There’s hope that Sony will address these issues before more upcoming titles are affected. The situation remains fluid, and updates are eagerly anticipated by the gaming community.
