PlayStation fans, breathe easy! Sony has finally responded to the buzz about the new DRM policy on the PS5. Why does this matter? Well, players were worried about losing access to their games if they weren’t online every 30 days.
Last week, gamers noticed that new game purchases on PS4 and PS5 had a 30-day clock that required an online check-in, causing quite a stir. But Sony cleared things up, confirming it’s just a one-time check to confirm your game’s license. Once that’s done, you’re free to game offline without any interruptions. This is a far cry from the DRM drama that caused such a fuss back in 2013 for Xbox’s launch.
For most of us, this won’t be a big deal since we’re usually online when downloading games anyway. Sony’s move seems aimed at preventing folks from getting a refund and then playing offline without a valid license. For more updates on gaming, like how Xbox’s next console is shaping up, stay tuned!
Keep an eye out for any further updates from PlayStation. Happy gaming!
