Sony has just announced that "Horizon: Forbidden West" will be released on PC in early 2024, available on Steam and Epic. A devoted PlayStation fan took the opportunity to urge Sony to add D‑type encryption to the PC version, citing the poor sales of "Marvel Spider‑Man: Remastered" on PC as evidence that piracy is hurting developers.
The user posted: "Sony, please add D encryption to this game. I heard that the PC version of "Marvel Spider‑Man: Remastered" lacks D encryption. That title is one of your biggest IPs, yet its PC sales are disappointing. Many pirates are playing it and giving nothing back to the developers."
He went on to say: "I’ve encountered many online gamers who proudly pirate your titles. I want this game to perform well, but without D encryption sales will remain low. Sony, please consider my suggestion. Thank you."
