We all know Sony has a bad reputation for security.
A few times last year and this year PSN went down.
This has happened for various reasons due to Errors, DDOS attacks, Hacked etc...
And PSN is down again!
But the reason for the crisis is unknown...
Update 2 (11:20am PT):
Everything listed in the images below is still down, but Sony has now added that the PlayStation Store is down on PlayStation 4 as well.
Update (10:55am PT):
In a massive update to their PSN Status Page, Sony has confirmed that Account Management is down on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3, Gaming and Social is down on PS4 and PS3, PlayStation Video is down on PS4 and PS3, and the PlayStation Store is down on PS3:
Stay tuned for further updates as they arrive.
Original Story:
Within the last fifteen minutes (at 10:30am PT/1:30pm ET), numerous people on Twitter and Reddit have reported that the PlayStation Network is down for them in locations all over the world, with some users reporting maintenance notifications.
While the PlayStation Network Status Page has yet to update, the Ask PlayStation Twitter account has suggested power cycling your router:
As well, they suggest using a wired connection: “Please unplug your router for 3 minutes and restart the console, if the issue persist try using a wired connection.”
Bungie also tweeted: “We are aware of issues impacting PlayStation players’ ability to connect to Destiny and are currently investigating. Standby for updates.”
PSN is currently up and running smoothly in the UK
EDIT:
All PSN Services are working in every location.
Everything is back to normal and running smoothly. (10PM GMT)
I take no credits for some of the information above.
