Sony to Shut Down PlayStation Plus PC App on December 10
Sony said the app's retirement will end cloud streaming of PlayStation Plus catalog games on PC for Premium subscribers.
Sony will shut down the PlayStation Plus app on PC on December 10, the company announced. After the shutdown, PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers will no longer be able to stream cloud catalog games on PC through the app.
Sony said fewer than 0.4% of eligible PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers use the PC app, according to Polygon. The company said it will notify affected users directly.
The shutdown does not affect PlayStation Plus memberships or benefits on PS5 and PS4, Sony said.
Background
The PC app closure follows other changes to PlayStation Plus and PlayStation hardware. In October 2025, Sony raised the monthly prices of all three PlayStation Plus tiers. The company has also raised PS5 prices multiple times and recently offered some existing console owners up to $400 through a trade-in partnership with Back Market. In July 2026, Sony announced it would stop producing physical game discs for new PlayStation releases beginning in January 2028, selling new games only as digital download codes.
