Update
The service has been restored today. Sony offers 5 days of free service to all those affected by the impact
Original text
PlayStation players have had problems accessing their online games for more than 12 hours, due to an interruption by the Sony Games Network, PlayStation Network (PSN). The interruption affected all PSN services, including account management, games and social networks, PlayStation video, PlayStation Store and Direct PlayStation, on platforms such as PS5, PS4, PS3, PS Vita, Applications and others.
The first reports on the fall of the PSN came by users around 3:00 p.m. (Pacific normal time), and the publications of social media players have also increased at the same time. Sony responded to the interruption with publications in their own social media accounts, but just to inform that they were aware of the problems And underline your state page which shows which services are inactive.
When I was free, there was an excuse, but now PlayStation Network pays
Sony support teams have not yet shared more information on the cause of the interruption or when players can expect things to come back to normal. This has left many worried players not to be able to play a game during the weekend in the service they pay monthly to access.
However, PC users who cannot access their PlayStation ports for a single player are lucky, because Sony recently caused the faculty of account requirements in most of their games on the platform.
Xbox Live is always the strongest service to play online
When writing these lines, the service has always fallen and one wonders the small value that was given to Xbox Live Solidity. It is true that the Microsoft service has never fallen, but not of course more than 1 p.m.. Or at least not I remember. The most serious thing was the fall in cloud games (not Xbox Live) for 24 hours.
In fact, and in accordance with this, I have read to some users that I am always in surprising networks that you cannot move games or play physical games if the PSN has fallen. Something that has been a lot criticized for Microsoft, but it seems that the standard standard does not apply to Sony.
@ Must I just tested this. You cannot associate a disc reader with a PS5 if PSN is broken.
