Hey PlayStation fans, here’s some potentially good news! Sony might have to shell out $7.8 million to US PlayStation players due to a class-action settlement. If you’ve bought digital games on the PlayStation Network (PSN) between April 1, 2019, and December 31, 2023, you might be eligible for some cash back.
This all started when Sony was hit with an antitrust lawsuit accusing them of monopolizing the market by making their digital store a closed shop. Sony’s $7.8M Refunds for PSN Players: What’s Happening? has more details. The list of games includes big titles like Destiny, Destiny 2, Nier: Automata, and The Last of Us. Interestingly, even if you no longer have a PSN account, you’re still in the running for a refund. Just make sure to get in touch with the lawyers handling the case.
But hold on, don’t start spending your potential windfall just yet. The court’s final approval for this settlement won’t happen until October 15, 2026.
