Signing into the PlayStation Network is optional on God of War Ragnarök PC.
When signed into an account for the PlayStation Network when playing God of War Ragnarök on PC, you will gain access to the Armor of the Black Bear set for Kratos at the first Lost Items chest in the Realm Between Realms (previously only accessible in a New Game+ run) and a resource bundle.
This set includes:
- Cloak of the Black Bear (Chest)
- Wraps of the Black Bear (Wrist)
- Belt of the Black Bear (Waist)
The resource bundle includes:
- 500 Hacksilver
- 250 XP
For in-progress saves, you will be able to access the armor set and resource bundle in the Lost Items chest after the update is live.
If you do not wish to log-in to an account for PlayStation Network while playing God of War Ragnarök on PC, you will still be able to access the Armor of the Black Bear set in a New Game+ run (the same as before).
