Update (October 1, 2024, 3:14 a.m. PT)

Sony updated the status of the PlayStation Network service. From now on, all online functions should work just fine.

Original news

All PSN services have been affected since October 1, 2024, at 3:21 p.m. Right now, PlayStation s are facing a widespread outage. Services such as management, online gaming, PlayStation Video, and the PlayStation Store are down. This outage prevents players from g in, creating PSN s, launching certain games, using network features, or making purchases in the PlayStation Store.

When PlayStation servers be back up

Sony is aware of the issue and is currently working to fix it. According to a post on X, the Japanese tech giant is still unsure of the exact cause of the problem. This could be a major issue, as the PSN outage has already lasted for more than four hours.

On Sony's official network status page, it states: "You might have difficulty g in or creating an for PlayStation Network. We're working to resolve the issue as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience." For now, all we can do is wait for PSN to be fixed and for the service to be restored. At least we know that Sony is doing something.

At the end of September, the PlayStation 5 received an update that introduced the "Welcome Hub," high price of the PlayStation 5 Pro, and the lackluster State of Play are just the tip of the iceberg of problems Sony is currently facing.
