Players are reporting that the PlayStation Network is finally starting to come back online after a lengthy eight-hour outage that has prevented users on PS5, PS4, and beyond from playing online multiplayer games.
For the last eight hours, people across the web, PS5, PS4, and even PS3 and Vita have been struggling with service outages across everything from the PlayStation Store to PlayStation Video, account management, and gaming itself. With the network down, online games were out of action, leaving players everywhere twiddling their thumbs. Communication was light on the ground, too – although the issues were acknowledged by the Japanese PlayStation customer support account on Twitter, no indication was given of when we could expect PSN to be back up.
