Sony has announced the scheduled shutdown of its PlayStation Plus desktop application for December 10, 2026.
Citing a usage rate below 0.4% among Premium subscribers, the company is winding down support for the PC platform variant, leaving the status of refunds for desktop-exclusive users unconfirmed.
Why is the service closing?
The company said the decision was due to the very small number of users. Less than 0,4% of PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers use the app on their PC. Sony says it wants to focus on services that appeal to the vast majority of its members.
What it means for subscribers
This change affects those who used the app to play on PC. So far, Sony has not clarified whether there will be a refund process for subscribers who used this platform exclusively.
Sony's broader strategy
The move is in line with the company's broader strategy to focus more on games for its own consoles, with Sony executive Herman Hulst saying in May that the company would not release any new titles on other platforms.
