PlayStation Plus PC app is being shut down in December because less than 0.4% of eligible subscribers are using it
Yes, this fits with Sony's broader pullback from PC, but the real reason the app is "retiring" is a simple lack of interest.
Sony has announced that the PlayStation Plus app for PC will be retiring on December 10. According to Sony, less than 0.4% of eligible PlayStation Plus Premium members are using the app, leading to the decision to discontinue it. Sony stated that this change allows the company to focus on enhancing high-quality experiences for members.
The PlayStation Plus app on PC was primarily known for offering older PlayStation games to PC gamers, rather than major new releases. Sony's decision aligns with its recent shift back to focusing on console exclusives, as reported earlier this year.
