The somewhat bigger issue is that PSN doesn’t support all countries that Steam does apparently.

In the end I suspect affected players will get a refund.

It isn’t as big a deal as the gamers are making it seem.

This is a big deal because PSN not even available in all EU countries. E.g there is no PSN in: Andorra, Estonia, Latvia. In Ukraine for example you can only register PSN account if you own PlayStation.

Also, they legally cannot sell the game in some EU countries and not others, due to EU single market rules.

So yah, they are kinda fucked if the EU comes after them legally.
