In December of 2021, U.K. music rights organization PRS for Music will be distributing royalties from Sony Interactive Entertainment Europe for music used in all games downloaded from the Sony PlayStation Store, during 2018 and 2019, in the U.K. and specific European territories.
If you know that your music was used in this way during 2018 and 2019 in the following countries, then we need your help to get your royalties: U.K., Republic of Ireland, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland.*
PRS has created two reference lists: Games With Cue Sheets and Games Without Cue Sheets. Please look through both lists to confirm if your music has been used in any of the games. Use the provided Production ID and Production Title to complete the attached cue sheet (you can use one cue sheet for multiple games). Send the completed cue sheet(s) to members@socan.com by Oct. 4, with “PlayStation” in the subject line, and SOCAN will make the claim on your behalf.
* PRS for Music will only be distributing royalties for the applicable territories according to the sister-society mandates for the PRS agreement with Sony Interactive Entertainment Europe, applicable only for 2018-2019 dates for downloads in the specified territories.
