The PSN game-share feature goes against the GGG Terms of Use for Path of Exile. Being able to share the one account between 2 users was not intended and has been removed by GGG. 😹😹😹😹😹 I do not and will not use TFT.

I'm not even account sharing and still lost access. Used a code a friend gave me on 0.1 and was playing since. I emailed them, they told me to write on forum, on forum they tell me to email them ...	Posted by Darcosias#4447 on Sep 3, 2025, 9:51:12 AM Quote this Post

This is not what OP meant, GAME-SHARING is NOT account-sharing, see below; On a console (PS5 in this example): Bob owns a copy of PoE2, Bob activates his mate Jimmy's console as Bob's primary device, this alone will let Jimmy play any game from Bob's library that Bob owns. Before the free weekend, Jimmy could access and play PoE2 via game-sharing from Bob as much as they wanted. After the free-weekend, Jimmy can no longer access PoE2 because of the "you don't have access" pop-up on the main menu BUT Bob can still access it, naturally despite Jimmy still being able to access OTHER online-only games that Bob owns. ('New World: Aeternum' for example). GAME-SHARING cannot be against GGG's ToS, because if it was, it goes against Sony's ToS of allowing game-sharing. By definition, this is NOT account-sharing. Having also gone over the ToS just now, nowhere does it state that "console game-sharing is against the ToS." Also, some players (across all platforms) who DO own copy of the game are having the same issue, ergo, what people are experiencing is a bug.
