Sony has announced that PlayStation Network accounts are to become known as Sony Entertainment accounts – or SEN accounts.
In an email to PSN users, the platform giant stated the change of name – and only the change of name – will come into place next week.
“For general purposes, this account change is a change in name only,” reads the email. “Your username will not change, nor are we asking you to change them.”
The firm says the change of name comes as it aims “to enhance its unique digital entertainment offering,” better helping to hit its goal of establishing a “global comprehensive network platform of services across games, movies, music and more, all accessible from one convenient account.”
PSN’s rebranding will be enforced on February 8 – this coming Wednesday – with updates for PlayStation 3 and PS Vita. The change will not be applied to the PSP platform.
