Godfall will require a constant internet connection on PS5 and PC
Godfall will require a constant internet connection, even when it comes to playing in single-player mode. The official Godfall page on the PlayStation Store confirms that a network connection and permanent authorization is required to play.
And on the official page, you can see the note “Network play required”. Games like Destiny and Fortnite, which require a constant internet connection, are the same. Godfall’s Twitter account also confirmed that a persistent connection would be required.
On the PS Store page, there is another tag that says “PS Plus membership required to play online,” which is unlikely to surprise those who regularly play multiplayer games on the PlayStation. But due to the fact that a network connection is mandatory here, it seems that you won’t be able to play without a paid subscription.
Many games built around collecting weapons and artifacts also require a constant online connection: it gives developers more control, prevents hacks and exploits of vulnerabilities that can disrupt the in-game economy and gameplay.
Whenever a player receives a loot, an online check will be performed to ensure that there is no cheating: this means that character progress and other information will be stored on the server-side, and players will not be able to change save files.
Godfall will be available on PC (Epic Games Store) on November 12. The Counterplay Games project will also appear on PS5: November 12 in the US and some other countries, November 19 in Russia and the rest of the world.
