Thousands of reports have flooded the website DownDetector indicating that the PlayStation Network is currently experiencing outages, which seem to mostly be affecting parts of North America.
The main PlayStation Network Status website originally didn’t state their were any issues but reports on DownDetector and comments online seemed to indicate that there’s at least some level of trouble going on.
Now, the official status website does confirm that gaming and social services are experiencing issues.
Which means that players should just keep enjoying and playing their games, especially if they’re online titles, with caution, as you could potentially experience a connection issue.
Players have reported having issues partying up with friends online and that while the PlayStation Store might still be working, other features are not at all functional.
But at least you can rest easy knowing that it’s nothing to do with your end, and that whatever the issue is will hopefully be resolved soon.
