UPDATE 5/6/2024: Helldivers fans -- we’ve heard your feedback on the Helldivers 2 account linking update. The May 6 update, which would have required Steam and PlayStation Network account linking for new players and for current players beginning May 30, will not be moving forward. We’re still learning what is best for PC players and your feedback has been invaluable. Thanks again for your continued support of Helldivers 2 and we’ll keep you updated on future plans.
I feel like an outlier here, but this doesn’t bother me at all. I’ve been linking accounts across platform for probably decades. Maybe I would find it slightly annoying if I only had a PC account.
What I’m most annoyed about is that they won’t let me unlock my account, due to not having the serial number from my PlayStation from over a decade ago, nor my credit card number from the same time period. So I’ve got to change my name, and create a new account to continue playing the game.
Its too late for you in this case but as a tip for anyone else, for most people using their camera to take a picture of their console serial number now will mean they have a cloud backed up picture of it available later if its ever needed for account recovery or insurance purposes.
