Review and Analysis 🚨💥
Helldivers 2 has been pulled from sale on Steam in over 170 countries following the controversy surrounding its PSN requirements, which has led to review bombing and a sharp decline in player engagement. Earlier this week, Sony made a highly controversial announcement that Helldivers 2 PC players would have to link their Steam accounts to a PSN account just to play the game, sparking widespread outrage among gamers.
Since then, the game has received more than 100,000 negative reviews on Steam, resulting in a recent review rating of mostly negative and an overall rating of mixed. The decision has not only impacted player engagement but also affected sales, with Helldivers 2 now being pulled from sale in over 170 countries on Steam.
It's essential to note that PSN is currently available in only 69 countries, leading many to worry about the implications for players who cannot access the platform. With the game no longer available for purchase, it seems that many more players will be unable to buy the game, making this move even more baffling.
According to reports from deals wizard Wario64, Steam has also been approving refund requests even if someone has played above the two-hour limit, although mileage may vary. The situation highlights the importance of considering player concerns and feedback when making decisions that impact gaming communities. #Helldivers2 #PSN #GamingControversy
