You heard it here first, folks: If you left a negative review for 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Helldivers 2 because of the region lock situation, it seems it's time to chang🍸e that review to a positive one.
Remember that whole Helldivers 2 PSN debacle from about a year ago? That ended in a decisive victory for players when Sony relented to pressure and walked back the previously instated requiremen🌳t that forced Helldivers 2 players to sign into PSN to play the game.
Well, before Sony reversed course, it doubled down and in 177 countries and territories that couldn't access PSN, prompting a tidaꦍl wave of (at the time) 215,000 negative Steam reviews. Today, more than ♊a year later, it seems Sony has reversed course yet again and unblocked Helldivers 2 from being sold in most of those countries
According to , the number is down to just eight: Belarus, Cuba,𝄹 Iran, Japan, North Korea, Russiaꦛ, Syria, and Vietnam.
I've reached out to Arrowhead and Sony for comment and will update this article if I hear back, but in the meantime, players are celebrating what appears to be🌠 a massive win.
"MAJOR ORDER: Change Negative Review After Region Unlock," reads the title of a Reddit thread 5.6k upvotes at the time of writing. The unofficial Maj🍒or Ord🌜er directs players to change any negative review that was left in response to the region lock to positive.
"Data collection from Ministry of Intelligence field operatives has confirmed that the anti-fascist efforts of the Helldivers have finally resulted in liberation from the Sony Blockade for nearly all regions of Super Earth," writes freedom fighter Goo𝔍d_Policy3529.

"Let us shit our pants ꧅as one. Give them the positive reviews they've earned," reads🗹 the in the thread with 1.6k upvotes.
Overall, the mood in Helꦗldivers 2 communities across the interweb is extremely celebratory, which is nice change of pace. That said, I sorted by date an⭕d narrowed it down to just today, and there doesn't seem to be a noticeable bump in new positive reviews, although many of the ones that were shared today do point out Sony's region lock reversal.
With this news still developing and w𒉰ith no official word from Sony or Arrowhead, it's still too early to say whether the damage from a year ago will be undone in terms of Helldivers 2's Steam rating, but there's no denying this appears to be a gargantuan win for democracy.
After earning an English degree from ASU, I worked as a corporate copy eꦡditor while freelancing for places like SFX Magazine, Screen Rant, Game Revolution, and MMORPG on the side. I got my big break here in 2019 with a freelance news gig, and I was hired on as GamesRadar's west coast Staff Writer in 2021. That means I'm responsible for managing the site's western regional executive branch, AKA my home office, and writing about whatever horr🎐or game I'm too afraid to finish.
