The gaming world faced significant problems recently as Sony’s online services stopped working at 6 PM EST that day. The PlayStation Network Outage works for all users at 6 PM EST while also disabling online gaming and chat parties together with PlayStation Store features and account services. Down Detector recorded that more than 71,000 users experienced network problems while the PlayStation Network outage lasted.
Through its Status page Sony announced players will likely face problems when starting games and applications. Our team is striving to fix the network problem at this moment. Even though the company mentions the PlayStation Network outage across various platforms they have not given a clear explanation of the source of the problem and when services will come back online. Many gamers who play Call of Duty, Fortnite, and Grand Theft Auto face problems due to the total PlayStation Network outage.
The PlayStation Network outage keeps bothering players who express their disappointment online through social media. Sony released limited information through social media when they said “A small number of PSN users encounter problems at this time.” The company continues to handle problems with PlayStation Network as technical teams search for ways to restore service across a wide network.
