PlayStation Ties Exclusive PC Content to Network Accounts, Cementing Cross-Platform Tracking

Sony launched PlayStation Network authentication requirements for exclusive in-game bonuses across PC titles beginning January 30, 2025, starting with Marvel's Spider-Man 2. God of War Ragnarök and Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered will follow. The move preserves ecosystem value and player data capture as PlayStation compresses release windows between console and PC, now arriving within 16 months of PlayStation 5 debut.
