Steam users will NOT have to have a PSN account for Helldivers 2.

After days of negative publicity, PlayStation announced this morning that it will no longer be going forward with its planned changes to Helldivers 2 on PC. Today was going to be the first day that new sales for the game on Steam would require a PlayStation Network ID to continue playing, with existing players forced to set up an account at the end of the month.

A Win for Steam UsersPrior to Friday's announcement about the requirement, Helldivers 2 was getting universal praise, and had become one of the year's best-selling games; however in the last few days, many players were actually getting refunds for Helldivers 2, rather than going through the hassle of creating a PSN account. It's not too surprising that PlayStation went back on these changes as a result, but no one could have predicted a policy change would happen so quickly.
