A collective action brought against the company at the Competition Appeal Tribunal accuses it of"ripping off" customers with overpriced digital games and in-game purchases.
This includes charging a 30% commission on every digital game or in-game purchase made through the online PlayStation Store - which the claim says has driven up prices for consumers. Nearly nine million UK customers could be eligible for damages, it says, applying to anyone who has purchased digital games or add-on content on their console or through the PlayStation Store since August 19 2016."The game is up for Sony PlayStation," consumer rights champion Alex Neill said.
