A California court has approved a $7.85 million settlement in a class-action lawsuit against Sony PlayStation, addressing allegations that the company unfairly monopolized its digital store. While the court has not determined whether Sony violated any laws, it has greenlit the settlement pending final approval at a hearing scheduled for October 15, 2026.
The lawsuit centered on claims that Sony engaged in anticompetitive practices by exercising tight control over its digital marketplace. The settlement was announced on April 29 by the law firm representing the class action suit.
Eligible PlayStation users can check their eligibility and submit claims for refunds for qualifying purchases made through Sony’s digital store. The settlement provides compensation to consumers affected by the alleged monopolistic practices, with the total amount of $7.85 million to be divided among eligible claimants who meet the agreement’s established criteria.
