Sony is retiring the PlayStation Plus app for PC on December 10th. Sony says it will notify users directly about the shutdown. The app allowed PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers to stream certain games on PC, but according to Sony, there aren’t many people using that perk:
“With a very small number of eligible PlayStation Plus Premium members (less than 0.4%) using the PlayStation Plus app on PC, making this change allows us to focus on enhancing high-quality experiences that more of our members want to use. As a result, the PlayStation Plus cloud streaming app on PC will no longer be available.”
PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers can still stream games on a console or on the PlayStation Portal. Sony’s decision to take the PC app offline follows reports earlier this year saying Sony is pulling back from PC and no longer plans to release PC ports of PlayStation exclusives.
