Ghost of Tsushima on PC Won't Be Released in Specific Countries Due to PSN, and Here's the List

It seems Ghost of Tsushima on PC will have the same PSN purchasing restrictions that caused massive backlash to Helldivers 2.

People on N4G: just fly to another country, what's the big deal

[JL2930]

No one cares about 3rd world problems.

[INMATEofARKHAM]

There's actually at least one 1st world country on that list and a number of 2nd world countries too. It's almost as if you don't know what defines 1st, 2nd or 3rd world countries... 🤔

[JL2930]

Ever hear of turn of phrase? English must not be your first language.

[H9]

If only it was a gender problem

[SPEAKxTHExTRUTH]

If I had to guess your age based on your comment I’d say middle schooler.

not available in JAPAN., wtf sony need to sort their sh** out. this is beyond a joke when a samurai game cannot be sold in Japan, something is wrong.

[Hugodastrevas]

Yeah, it's all wrong since they may bed to California

[thorstein]

Makes this list rather suss.

[StoneTitan]

Because for Japan you have to create a different version. You should look it up. The game is sold in Japan but its not the same storefront. Same with helldivers.
Has something to do with microtransaczion laws.
Look it up.

[Hugodastrevas]

Bunch of geniuses running Sony these days... Smh

[ocelot07]

Got the feeling Sony are half arsing the PC thing. It's that or the whole PC thing is completely lost on them.

[wesnytsfs]

Its lost to sony, They have been quite poor at pc releases going all the way back to the OG planetside.

[TheColbertinator]

Sony Online had so much potential and Sony squandered it.

[wesnytsfs]

@TheColbertinator, I think they still can be successful on PC. But treating the platform like they do with such delays before releasing on PC will never endear them to PC gamers.

[Inverno]

Why tho? The SP works without the need to log into PSN, this was literally announce. So why is it an issue? Simply A. removing the login restriction fixes this, or B. People simply won't play the MP which I don't think people will care much. A better option is A, or even better just lower the game price in those countries to compensate for the lack of MP access.

[romulus23]

Oh this again.

[RNTody]

Tragic, stupid, ridiculous in this day and age. You literally have to release an unlocked digital version that does not require PSN, since the single player component does not at all. The multiplayer can be a seperate launcher.

What started out as super promising PC releases of their games with Spider-Man and God of War now seems to be half-assing like The Last of Us and now this.

Why are you trashing the good will you started with PC gaming? Who does this benefit?

[PRIMORDUS]

I think I said this before, those people can use a VPN and torrent the game and play. It will be cracked fast due to the game not having Denuvo 😁

[Deeeeznuuuts]

This whole fiasco with Helldivers 2 and now Ghost of Tsushima is just ridiculous, I'm a huge Sony fan but this is just anti consumer

[Shiore2u]

Interesting move for a business to deliberately not want money.

[Hedstrom]

Kinda doubt that list, Japan?

[anast]

There's always an issue with PC.

[wesnytsfs]

Amazing Sony would do that why lose sales for something as petty as PSN.

[SPEAKxTHExTRUTH]

I’m not sure why people are acting surprised by Sony being anti consumer once again. This is the result of not having much competition in the console market. Sony can and will do whatever they want unless you people stop whining and start keeping your money in your wallets. Don’t support bad behavior…
