PSN account no longer required for God of War Ragnarok, Spiderman 2, Last of Us Part 2, and Horizon Remastered

arstechnica.com Sony removes PlayStation account requirement from 4 single-player Steam games

In-game goodies still provide incentives even though the requirement is gone.

It's debatable whether this belongs in the Steam Deck community, but these are all high profile games, and having to login with additional online accounts is a significant barrier to play on the Deck.

well, that's some good news. i'm currently replaying spider-man on my steam deck and it's great. i really love that game. with that barrier off, i'd be really interested in playing spider-man 2. here's hoping it runs on the deck. i doubt it will but i'd love to be proven wrong.

  Seems like there's hope.
  Personally I'm hoping to see some better sales on the first Spider-Man game once 2 comes out. Right now the lowest I think it goes is about $30, but judging from God of War sales after Ragnarok released, I think that will come down to $15-20 after Spiderman 2 comes out.
