An Overview of PlayStation Now
Are you thinking of canceling your PlayStation Now subscription? It’s always good to understand what you’re getting yourself into before you make a definite decision. So let’s take a look at how PlayStation Now works, and how you can cancel it if need be.
PlayStation Now is a subscription service that lets users access a selection of games over the internet. It offers more than 800 PS4 and PS2 games, as well as some PS3 titles — all on demand. You get the convenience of streaming games on several devices, including compatible TVs and PCs. And you don’t even have to worry about downloading large game files, making it easier and faster to get into the game.

What You Need to Know Before Canceling
Do you want to cancel your PlayStation Now subscription? Here’s what you need to know before doing so.
First of all, any games you’ve already downloaded as part of a PS Now subscription will remain available to play, even after canceling the service. However, they won’t receive any updates or additions unless a new subscription is purchased.
Also, please note that the cancelation of your subscription will take effect immediately. So make sure you’re certain that you want to cancel before taking action. Canceling also means that any payment due for future months will be canceled too and won’t be withdrawn from your account.
Finally, remember that PlayStation now subscriptions aren’t refundable or transferable. If you decide to reactivate your subscription at a later date, you’ll need to do it at the full price of the plan—so be sure it’s something you really want before cancelation!
How to Cancel a Subscription on Your Computer
As it turns out, canceling your PlayStation Now subscription on your computer is actually pretty simple. Here’s what you need to do:
- Log in to your PlayStation Now account from a web browser on your computer.
- Go to the “Subscriptions” tab on the left side of the screen.
- Click the “Cancel Subscription” button at the bottom of the page.
- Confirm that you want to cancel your subscription by clicking “Yes, Cancel Subscription” in the pop-up window.
Once you have canceled your subscription, you will no longer be charged and all access to PlayStation Now services will be removed from your account.
How to Cancel a Subscription on Your PlayStation Console
Canceling your subscription is pretty straightforward; you can do it in a couple of clicks right on your PlayStation console. Here’s how:
- Go to the Home Screen and select [Settings].
- Choose [Account Management] and then [Account Information].
- Select [PlayStation Subscriptions].
- From the list, select PlayStation Now and follow the instructions to complete the cancelation process.
Once you cancel your subscription, you will no longer be charged for future payments, but you will still have access to your PlayStation Now services until the end of the billing cycle for which you have already paid. At that point, your subscription will expire and all associated benefits—including access to games—will no longer be available.
It’s important to note that if you choose to re-subscribe at a later date, any progress or saved data you may have through your current subscription may not be preserved or transferred over. So make sure that if there are any games you’d like to play or continue playing, do so before canceling your membership!
