Sony removed hundreds of low-quality games from the PlayStation Store on March 23, 2026, delisting Nostra Games titles as part of an ongoing anti-shovelware purge. The action removed roughly 90 titles in some regions and about 700 when including regional variations, with roughly 1,000 games estimated affected overall. Many of the delisted projects relied on generative AI tools and mirrored popular games.
