Sony PlayStation Store pricing error and delisting
Overview
Sony Interactive Entertainment temporarily delisted several first-party PlayStation Store titles, including ‘God of War III: Remastered’, ‘Knack 2’, and ‘Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection’, across the Americas region.
The removal was triggered by a pricing error during Sony’s transition to local currency pricing in Mexico. As the company migrated transactions from US Dollars to Mexican Pesos, a glitch caused certain titles to be listed for approximately 9.99 pesos (roughly $0.50 USD). This error led to a surge of purchases following social media activity.
While the titles were removed from storefronts in Mexico, the United States, and Canada, they remained available in other territories such as the United Kingdom. The delisting only affects new purchases; users who already owned the games can still redownload them from their libraries.
