Sony's game publishing arm has done a 180-degree turn on a controversial policy of requiring PC players to sign in with PlayStation accounts for some games, according to a blog post by the company.

Sony hasn't lost hope that players will still go ahead and use a PlayStation account, though, as it's tying several benefits to signing in.

The change is a major about-face for a handful of single-player titles after Sony faced considerable backlash from many angry PC players about the PlayStation account requirement to play the games.

Yeah, $10 for a remastered re-play of Horizon doesn't sound like a bad time tbh...

I honestly don't think the remaster helps, but I'm a huge fan of the original still. Its not been enough time for a real remaster in my opinion.

Is it cheaper if you own the base game? I'm seeing $64.99 CAD. For $10 and no account I'd totally replay it. I played through the first time on PS4.

Might be worth checking out some comparison videos, some prefer the base game visuals.

Yeah, it's a $10 upgrade if you own the base game; I got it on sale a long time ago for $14.

I have the base game and didn't know that, thank you random Internet person! $10 is indeed a good deal.
