PlayStation Plus PC streaming, as users know it, officially ends December 10
PC streaming set to end
PlayStation is retiring its PlayStation Plus app on PC. People who have not already downloaded it can no longer get the app through the current download page, which returns a 404 error.
Those with the app installed can still access it for now. However, PlayStation says the service will be permanently suspended on December 10, 2026, ending PC streaming through the app.
Usage behind the decision
A PlayStation blog post about the closure said less than 0.4% of subscribers used the PC cloud-streaming app. The app let PlayStation Plus Premium members stream hundreds of titles on a PC without a console.
The change follows PlayStation’s retreat from the PC market, which the article says began in April. It also reports that PC ports are ending because of low sales.
Options for subscribers
After the PC service ends, the PS5 and PlayStation Portal will be the only platforms where players can stream games from PlayStation Plus, according to the article. PlayStation could bring back a PC app if demand rises, but the article says that appears unlikely given the small share of subscribers who used it.
Key points
- PlayStation Plus PC streaming will end permanently on December 10, 2026.
- Fewer than 0.4% of subscribers used the PC cloud-streaming app, according to PlayStation.
- People with the app already installed can access it until the service is suspended.
- The PS5 and PlayStation Portal will remain options for streaming PlayStation Plus games.
