With a new generation of consoles, a brand new IP immediately comes into play: Godfall. The next-gen game will be made by Counterplay Games, which has several developers who have previously worked on it Destiny 2. That is noticeable, because Godfall is one looter slasher, defeating enemies allows for increasingly stronger weapons and armor – just like in Destiny 2. You can do that on your own, but also in online co-op.
Regardless of how many players you want to play Godfall with, it just seems that you need a PS Plus subscription and an internet connection at all times – even if you never intend to play in co-op. That appears from the Godfall product page on the PlayStation website. This is mentioned at the top ‘Online Play Required’ is and then that ‘PS Plus Required for Online Play’ is. If you are looking for a pure single player experience, then it seems that you still have to reach for a PS Plus subscription. Still, it may be possible that PS Plus is only needed if you want to play in co-op.
Is Godfall the first game with such obligations?
Godfall is not the first PlayStation game where an internet connection is required to play the game. For example, for the Destiny games you needed a connection to the internet at all times, as well The Division games from Ubisoft. With those titles, only a PS Plus subscription is not required if you want to play alone. If you only want to experience adventures together with other players, you have to take out a subscription. This also applies to Xbox Live Gold if you want to play these games on Xbox consoles.
