The ongoing pandemic has brought with itself a range of unprecedented crises. Forced to sit at home, we have found solace in video games and the ability to play online with friends. However, the PlayStation Network took a hit today as users are reporting a problem with the servers.

Network issues are not uncommon and are usually fixed within a few hours. However, the frenzy that follows the same is a different ball game altogether. And that’s exactly what happened today.

Users from the US, Europe, and some parts of Asia reported issues while connecting to the servers.

Numerous issues plaguing the PlayStation Network

PSN down reports are on the rise as users have been complaining of errors while logging in. The independent outage monitor Down Detector reported a number of issues with PSN. PS4 games faced a maintenance error while logging in.

Down Detector reported that as many as 76% of users were not able to log in while the rest were not being able to access the games that were purchased online, subsequently affecting features like game sharing and online multiplayer.
