Wow, this is awful. Some people reported that these ads are also very petty and not necessarily related to the game, like apparently Elden Ring shows an ad for a licensed mousepad when you hover over the game now…

Edit: Playstation Product Manager says this is actually a new bug. I really doubt it but they do seem to be “fixing it”.

If you are taking about the storefront you can disable that completely in your options.

I couldn’t find one when it first came out, and haven’t looked since. Thank you so much!

Sure thing, if I were in front of my pc I’d have given you more precise instructions but yeah I was elated when I found that setting as I don’t enjoy livestreams even if it’s not a spoiler.

I either GoG or pirate these days. You want my money? Then respectfully sell me the product.
