Sony Finally Allows PSN Name Changes
Ladies and gentlemen, it finally happened: Sony will allow us to change our PSN names.
For years and years going back as far as the PS3, PSN users have asked, no, begged, Sony to allow players to change their online user ID names. Whether it be the cringe of a name developed when we were in high school, or the nonsensical use of numbers or lowercase Xs, we needed to change our names.
Despite the pleas of millions, Sony remained silent. It was apparently impossible. Then, out of nowhere, Sony announced that through an intense and terrifying beta process, users could begin changing their names with a full rollout expected next year.
While you might lose your DLC, your progress and so much more, you no longer have to live under the guise of something like koolaidman420blazeit or something more embarrassing. Is it worth it, though? That’s for the beta users to determine.
Regardless, we can’t blame Sony anymore —they finally delivered the goods.
