Update: PlayStation Network works again after a 24 -hour service drop. Sony has not given explanations and has limited himself to apologizing.
Original news: From time to time online services have small interruptions that end up being little more than an anecdote, but sometimes the incidence is more serious. This is one of them. For more than 12 hours all PlayStation Network services are fallen worldwide, and for now the only thing Sony has said It is that it is aware of the solution and that for more information the status page of the network service is consulted.
According to the aforementioned page, the problems presented by PlayStation Network translate into that «you may have difficulty starting games, applications or network functions.» There are also problems to buy games and products at the PlayStation Store, log in or create an account to access PlayStation Network. The incidence affects all Sony platforms, including PS Vita, PS3, PS4, PS5 and access via web, which also includes PC players who play through Steam or Epic Games Store and want to use a account of a account of PlayStation Network (which is optional in all available titles).
The incidence facing PlayStation Network was recorded on February 8 at 1:00 a.m., shortly after Sony published a message in X recognizing the problem and since then the company has said nothing more. Meanwhile, players cannot access PlayStation Network, which prevents playing any title that requires an Internet connection. Nor can you buy, download or update games, do streamingexchange coupons or access the content of PlayStation Video. In the end we are on the weekend, when players usually have more free time, and time invites you to stay at home.

As small as they are, this type of incidents are increasing 100 million users.
