"Digital games purchased after a specific date in March now come with a 30-day expiry date. If you remain offline for 30 days, you will no longer be able to access digital PlayStation games you purchased without connecting to the internet to verify your licenses."
"Hugely terrible DRM has now been rolled out to all PS4 and PS5 digital games. Every digital game you buy now requires an online check-in every 30 days. If you buy a digital game and don't connect your console to the internet for 30 days, your license will be removed."
"The video game preservationist group DoesItPlay launched its own investigation into the story, and later concluded that the DRM issue was an 'unintentional' mistake on Sony's end."
A new DRM system for PS4 and PS5 mandates users to connect to the internet every 30 days to verify licenses for digital purchases. Reports indicate that digital games bought after a specific date in March will expire if the console remains offline for 30 days. The situation has caused confusion among users, especially as Sony has not issued an official statement. An investigation by DoesItPlay suggested that the DRM issue may have been an unintentional mistake by Sony.
