A federal judge in the Northern District of California has granted preliminary approval to a $7.85 million class-action settlement against Sony Interactive Entertainment over alleged anticompetitive practices on the PlayStation Store. Eligible US PlayStation Network users who bought certain digital games or vouchers from April 1, 2019, to December 31, 2023, could receive automatic store credits or refunds, even if accounts are inactive (contact lawyers if former user). A final fairness hearing is set for October 15, 2026.
