  "account": "Sony is proposing a $7.85 million settlement for U.S. customers who purchased certain digital games through the PlayStation Store between April 1, 2019 and December 31, 2023. The settlement aims to compensate eligible customers for higher prices they faced when the PlayStation Store stopped accepting third-party retailers' game-specific download vouchers in April 2019. Eligible games include The Last of Us Remastered, Until Dawn, No Man's Sky, and NBA 2K18, as well as specific editions like the Complete Edition Bundle for Bloodborne. To qualify, customers need an active PlayStation Network account and did not opt out of the settlement. No claim form is required, and payments will be made automatically as PlayStation Store wallet credit after final approval. The final approval hearing is set for October 15, 2026, but the settlement still needs approval before distribution. The credits will not expire and can be used for any product available in the PlayStation Store.",
