Sony has announced that the PlayStation Plus app for PC will be discontinued on December 10, 2026. The decision was communicated at the end of the official PlayStation Blog post presenting the November game catalog.
What happened?
According to the company, fewer than 0.4% of eligible PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers used the PC application. Sony says retiring it allows the company to focus resources on experiences used by more members. The cloud streaming app allowed access to catalog games and Classics directly from Sony’s servers without needing a console.
The change does not affect memberships or benefits available on PS5 and PS4 consoles. Affected users will be notified directly. PS Remote Play, which streams from a user’s own console, remains available as a separate service.
Why it matters
The app was a way to access the PlayStation game library on PC via the cloud. With its end, that option disappears, while streaming continues on consoles and the PlayStation Portal. Sony has not announced a replacement or price adjustment for Premium subscribers.
