Global PlayStation Store Update – August 12, 2025

Okay, so here’s the thing about PlayStation updates. Every week, it’s like Christmas… or maybe just a regular Tuesday with a plot twist. Who even sleeps on Monday night, am I right? Sony’s tossing new stuff – games, add-ons, that kinda jazz – at all us PlayStation peeps. PS4, PS5, VR, Plus… it’s a whole buffet. PlayStation LifeStyle’s got the goods each week, keeping us all in-the-know. Just remember to circle back every Tuesday. Or don’t. Your call.
