The year just started and as usual, the PlayStation Store‘s Holiday Sale is currently up and running, giving players the chance to get their favorite games at a friendly price.

Am I Eligible to Get a Refund?

Just as with any platform, to be able to get a refund on purchases made on the PS Network, players need to meet certain conditions. Here are the conditions you need to meet to request a refund on the PlayStation Network:

• Games and DLCs: Having made the purchase within a 14 days period and not started to download or stream the content. If the second condition is not met, you will only be able to receive a refund if the content is not working as it should. Ex: Cyberpunk 2077.
• Subscriptions: Having made the purchase within 14 days.
• Pre-orders: Refunds can be requested at any time before the game’s release. After the release, you can request a refund within the first 14 days.
