<p>Developer Arrowhead Game Studios and Sony Interactive Entertainment have announced that <a href="https://www.gameinformer.com/product/helldivers-2">Helldivers 2</a> on Steam will soon require a PlayStation Network account to play. All new players from May 30 will have to link their Steam account to a PSN account, and all current players will have to do so by June 4. </p>
<p>Up until this point, a PSN account was not required to play Helldivers 2 on PC via Steam, and with the sudden switch-up, players have taken to the game's <a href="https://store.steampowered.com/app/553850/HELLDIVERS_2/">Steam reviews</a> to express their frustration. Admittedly, the game's rating is still "Very Positive," with roughly 80% of user reviews falling into this category, but that 80% is lower than it has been in the weeks prior. And now, if you look at the game's <a href="https://store.steampowered.com/app/553850/HELLDIVERS_2/#app_reviews_hash">recent reviews</a>, you'll find plenty of negative ratings over the required PSN account change. </p>

<p>SIE <a href="https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/553850/view/4196868529806518741?l=english">says</a> due to "technical issues at the launch of Helldivers 2, we allowed the linking requirements for Steam accounts to a PlayStation Network account to be temporarily optional. That grace period will now expire." That expiration begins on May 6 for new players and June 4 for current players. </p>
<p>While frustration is understood, it's important to note a PlayStation console is not required to create a PSN account – creating one is free and can be done online, no PlayStation 5 required. SIE encourages players to do so ahead of the June 4 change. </p>
<p>"We understand that while this may be an inconvenience to some of you, this step will help us continue to build a community that you are all proud to be a part of," the announcement reads. </p>
