PS5 DRM controversy as fans fear Sony is moving towards online-only gaming
Fans are concerned about a new Digital Rights Management (DRM) system on PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 that reportedly requires digital games to check in online every 30 days to maintain their license. While Sony Interactive Entertainment has provided conflicting information, some reports suggest this change could impact the playability of digital purchases if consoles are not connected to the internet regularly. This has reignited debates about digital ownership and the potential for online-only gaming.
