Sony has officially announced the retirement of the PlayStation Plus PC app, effective December 10, 2026. The decision affects PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers who previously used the app to stream games from their PCs. The company cited minimal usage, stating that less than 0.4% of eligible Premium users actively utilized the application.
Alongside the PC app's discontinuation, Sony will also end the PlayStation Plus cloud streaming app on PC. This move marks another step in Sony's broader transition away from PC game ports. Recent observations indicate Sony is reinforcing its exclusive stance, highlighted by the return of the "PlayStation Exclusive" badge on first-party titles.
The change does not impact PlayStation Plus memberships or benefits available on PS5 and PS4 consoles. Sony has stated they will notify affected users directly regarding the app's removal.
