Sony to Discontinue PlayStation Plus PC App Next Month

Sony has officially announced that it will be retiring the PlayStation Plus application for personal computers on December 10th. The company stated that it plans to notify all active users directly regarding the impending shutdown of the service.

The PC application previously allowed PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers to stream a selection of games directly onto their computers. However, according to Sony’s official statements, the decision to pull the plug stems from a remarkably low adoption rate among the user base. The company noted that only a very small number of eligible subscribers actually utilized the PC streaming perk.

While the shutdown marks the end of an era for PC-based PlayStation streaming, Sony continues to focus its cloud gaming and subscription efforts primarily on its native hardware ecosystem. Affected players will no longer be able to access the specific PC app functionality once the December deadline passes.
