The decision was revealed in a PlayStation Blog post stating less than 0.4% of PS Plus Premium members used the PC app, according to VGC. Sony emphasized the move allows focus on 'high-quality experiences' valued by more members.
Eurogamer reported Sony also unveiled new PS Plus games for November 2026, including Death Stranding 2 and Atomfall, but the app shutdown announcement was separate from the game lineup. The PC app's retirement will block streaming of PlayStation games to PCs.
