Yeah, you’re out of luck for a simple ‘play on PC’ solution. PlayStation purchases are locked to their ecosystem for now, and they’re not likely to change it anytime soon. Microsoft with Xbox has some cross-play, but sadly not Sony. Keep your fingers crossed for future updates, though!

Using Remote Play might be your best bet. It won’t let you run the game on your PC natively, but you’ll be able to stream it from your PlayStation to your computer. Just keep in mind you’ll still need a good internet connection for it to work smoothly.

Sadly, you can’t directly play games bought on PlayStation on your PC without buying them again. Sony doesn’t have a cross-platform setup like that.

However, you can get around this a bit by using Remote Play. It lets you stream your PlayStation games to your PC, which is pretty handy if your TV is occupied but your console isn’t. You’d still need the actual PlayStation turned on, but it’s a neat workaround for when you crave that gaming fix.
