The outage, officially confirmed by Sony, appears to have started globally overnight. Judging by the reactions on Reddit and X (formerly Twitter), almost all gamers seem to be affected.
According to Sony, while the issue is being investigated, it is still not resolved and the number of reports on the servers seemed to decrease for a few hours, but then started to increase again.
Here's the statement released by Sony:
“PlayStation Network (including PlayStation Store) may not be available at this time. We sincerely apologize to our customers for this inconvenience. We are investigating the cause of the problem and are working to restore service as soon as possible. Please be patient.”
While it is not yet clear how long the outage will last, the reaction of players is growing like an avalanche. While PlayStation Store and online multiplayer modes cannot be accessed due to the outage, this outage is said to be one of the biggest PSN outages Sony has experienced recently.
