Sony Interactive Entertainment is being sued for unlawfully restricting purchases of PlayStation games from its online store.

A class-action lawsuit has been proposed as gamers seek to allow outlets beyond Sony to sell digital game codes. In 2019 Sony stopped third-party online retailers such as Best Buy, Walmart and Amazon.com from selling their games online.

This means Sony is able to set their prices higher than the physical copies of the same games and monopolize the digital market, an example made in the lawsuit stated that in some cases there is a 175% inflation on titles that come from Sony’s online store.

This case comes as Epic Games is in court with Apple over the popular game Fortnite controversy.
