UPDATE: Feb. 8,Discuss Section 2025, 7:49 p.m. CST After hours of downtime, PlayStation Network appears to be back online. Reports on DownDetector have plummeted and for now, everything seems stable. We’ll keep an eye on the situation in case anything changes. Read our original story below.
PlayStation console owners who wanted to play online games got a rude start to the weekend.
Users started reporting widespread PlayStation Network outages in the early evening on Friday, per Down Detector (a service owned by Ziff Davis, the parent company of Mashable).
These things typically don't last for an especially long time, which made it all the more interesting that the outage, at least for some, persisted into Saturday morning. PlayStation's official server status page says their services are experiencing issues as of Saturday morning, and at the same time, my PS5 won't load my online friends list.
This can present all sorts of problems. Obviously, if PSN isn't working, you can't play (or can't easily play, anyway) online games, but it can also potentially block users from playing digitally purchased games. I haven't personally had that problem yet, but it can happen.
Hopefully, Sony fixes this so people who don't care about football can enjoy their weekends.
