Steam Critics Mixed on

God of War Ragnarok's Steam reviews are currently "Mixed," sparking a controversy surrounding Sony's PSN account requirement. The PC port's launch has been met with a wave of negative reviews, primarily driven by player frustration over the mandatory PSN account linkage. Many fans are review-bombing the game on Steam, resulting in a 6/10 user score.

The requirement, announced prior to launch, has left many players bewildered, particularly given the game's single-player nature. While some users report successfully playing without linking an account, others describe technical issues and frustration with the forced integration. One Steam review highlights the irony: "I get why people are upset...But I don't even understand because I could play fine without logging in. It sucks because those reviews are gonna turn people away from an incredible game." Another user complains of a black screen issue and inaccurate playtime tracking.

Despite the negative feedback, positive reviews also exist, praising the game's story and gameplay while attributing the negative scores solely to the PSN requirement. One player stated, "Good story as expected. Players are giving negative reviews mostly for PSN. Sony has to look carefully now into this matter. Otherwise, the game is top notch on PC."

This isn't Sony's first encounter with such backlash. The similar PSN requirement for Helldivers 2 prompted a similar negative reaction, leading Sony to ultimately reverse its decision. Whether Sony will respond similarly to the God of War Ragnarok situation remains to be seen. The current "Mixed" rating on Steam reflects the ongoing tension between player satisfaction and Sony's controversial policy.
