PlayStation appears to be testing user-written reviews on the PS Store, meaning you’ll be able to do more than just rate your games with stars.
Xbox has allowed its users to leave written reviews for quite a while now, but on PlayStation the only thing you can currently do is give a game a star rating from one to five. Well, as shared by one user on the PlayStation subreddit earlier this week, it appears that the console maker is currently testing written user reviews. The user in question asked the community “when did PlayStation start allowing written reviews? Seems to only be allowed for [a] few games on their store pages for now.” They also shared a screenshot of the page that lets you write reviews, with Helldivers 2 being the game in question.
It’s a simple enough page, just prompting you to put your star rating in and whatever your thoughts about the game are, asking you to tag spoilers and agree to the terms and conditions. Nothing fancy, but it would obviously be a big change for how players can offer their opinions on PlayStation games, currently relegated to writing some lengthy comment on a social media post about a completely different topic in the hopes that someone will respond but knowing no one ever will.
