Sony announced on Tuesday (10) that it will retire the PlayStation Plus app on PC on December 10, 2026. The notice was published at the end of the November PlayStation Plus Games Catalog reveal, on the PlayStation Blog.
Why the app is being shut down
According to Sony, a very small number of eligible PlayStation Plus Premium members — fewer than 0.4% — used the app on PC. With the change, the company says it can focus on higher-quality experiences that more members want to use.
What changes — and what does not
From December 10, the PlayStation Plus cloud streaming app on PC will no longer be available. Sony says the change does not affect PlayStation Plus memberships or benefits on PS5 and PS4, and that it will notify affected users directly.
The app let subscribers manage their membership and access the service's cloud streaming on PC, without needing a PS5 — a feature aimed at those who wanted to play on a computer.
The announcement came alongside the reveal of the November PlayStation Plus catalog, covered in a previous Geekiki article: PlayStation Plus novembro 2026: Dead Island 2, Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered e Monster Train 2 chegam em 3 de novembro.
