Beginning Friday afternoon, the PlayStation Network began to suffer from small issues, ranging from problems for users attempting to sign into the platform, or errors when players tried to view their trophy pages. As the night continued, PSN connectivity only got worse, with the entire network going down for all PlayStation users. Sony noted that "some users" were affected by issues, simply referring to a status page that notes that all aspects of PSN are down, at the time of writing. As of right now, there's no ETA as to when the outage might be fixed, nor any exact explanation as to why no one can access PSN.

Last year, Sony suffered a similar issue, where PSN was down for over eight hours, in October 2024. You can keep an eye on Sony's official PlayStation Network tracker below, to see when services begin to return.

Update: Sony have announced that all services have now been restored and that all PlayStation Plus users will receive an additional 5 days of complimentary service.

Still no answer as to what is causing this?

damn shame its still down!

Some say it may be a hack or a crash.

You ever think sometimes that it's good to go back to some old games that
didn't require anything but you pressing the power button and grabbing a wired controller?

 

[KingVamp]

Reminder, pay online should have never been a thing.

 

[RyanTheArchivist]

Wait, so does it mean I can't play games at all? Like Dragon Quest XI S or Tales of Grace F Remastered.

Most singleplayer games should be fine unless they have some always online drm... Actually that depends if its physical or digital as digital likely requires PSN

 

[MysticStarlight]

It's back online

 

[Exnor]

$ony is at it again.

Cam North Korea be used as an excuse this time too?

 

[Xzi]

All I care about is that it's back up in time for the Nightreign beta test.

 

[SylverReZ]

Can North Korea be used as an excuse this time too?

Or it could be those lizards again.

 

[k7ra]

SONY say go out and touch grass or snow

 

[Silterpy]

This is pretty sad news. Hope this gets fixed soon.

Apparently some people are reporting that they have just got some connections back

 

[Fugelmir]

Wait till Luigi Mangione finds out about this. Rip Jack tretton

 

[chrisrlink]

[tw_fan]

Well that sucks for everyone who wanted to play online. Hope this gets fixed soon

 

[Cranesbill]

[chrisrlink]

my guess the ps3 support is being removed well pretty sure we have most of the psn store (PS3) ripped anyways now to put it on a russian server where it can't be touched

 

[dh3lix-pooch]

Aaaawwwr... Sony being Sony.... again. Any bets if the customer payment data is being carried out to the door already?

This is why I'm glad I own a Xbox 1.

i personally hope the psn service being down is a ddos attack in retaliation for sony saying they are removing all the ps4 games from ps+ and won't be adding anymore ps4 games for the free monthly games or to psn anymore.

situations like what sony is doing by gutting ps+ and psn, are the only times i'd ever approve of a ddos attack on a game company.

sony must pay for their continued anti-consumerism and for the asinine decision to remove all the games from ps+ when the ps5 ain't got shit for games.
