Sony's Marvel Tokon Blocked In Over 100 Countries On Steam
SteamDB shows the fighting game may require a PlayStation Network account for PC crossplay, leaving players in 132 countries unable to buy it.
- SteamDB indicates the upcoming PC version of Marvel Tokon, developed by Arc System Works and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment, appears blocked in 132 countries ahead of its August 6, 2026 release.
- While Sony has not officially confirmed the restriction, players attribute the lockout to mandatory PlayStation Network account linking required for crossplay with PS5 consoles, which remains unavailable in the affected regions.
- The restricted nations—including Iran, Belarus, Egypt, Jamaica, and Nigeria—align with territories lacking PlayStation Network access, mirroring the previous Helldivers fiasco documented on SteamDB.
- Fans on ResetEra expressed frustration over Sony's plan to transition PS5 and PS6 to all-digital platforms by 2028, with one user sarcastically writing, "Discless future looking real good right now&."
- With the game one month from launch, change remains possible; Sony has previously reversed unpopular policies following community backlash, potentially offering hope to affected players.
