Some players are experiencing a bug in PS Plus games downloaded with Extra and Deluxe subscriptions. According to comments on Reddit and Twitter, a warning saying that the license expires in 15 minutes has been constantly appearing on the screen in the middle of gameplay.
When this happens, the console takes the players to the initial menu, however, the game is not closed and the game can be resumed normally. What bothers the community is the fact that this is repeated several times throughout the sessions, interrupting the fun almost four times an hour.
@PlayStation please fix that “15 mins left till game closes” ( or something like that) error already. Can’t even enjoy the ps plus games now since i have to restore the licenses every 15 mins

PlayStation fix β15 minutes left until end of gameβ (or something like that) error. I can’t even enjoy PS Plus games now as I have to restore licenses every 15 minutes.
Interestingly, when the 15 minutes hit, the game is not closed. You can select it again from the menu, open it and continue right where you left off. The error has been occurring with several games, such as Horizon Forbidden West, Life is Strange: Before the Storm, Ghost of Tsushima and Humanity.
