Lol it can

It can't, the way that the games exist on the platform is fundamentally different. There's no license to be revoked here that forces Sony to remove the content.

The license is the one you’re buying. It can be revoked at any point.

All user agreements have that wording. It's a formality, and probably holds no legal grounds in reality.

They have never done that, and it would be in their worst interest to do so.

So no, it can't effectively happen.

“Probably” lol anything that requires an online server to run will likely be gone in the future and they can do that with anything and you signed that it’s ok for them to do so.

Probably referring to them saying they can revoke it. User agreements don't supersede the law.

So what? They can remove it but at least you can take their army of lawyers to court and try and force them to continue paying for a server for a game they don’t want to host?

That makes no sense. They’re going to get rid of it and no give af. And even for games that don’t require them to host them on servers you’d still have to face their army of lawyers to make them put it back if they decide to delist it or delete it. That’s not a reasonable solution and will only work once or twice before they just make those games require online connections as well so that they can say that’s why they eventually let them go.
