PSN Partially Down for Some Users

Despite the current server status, it seems some PlayStation players are experiencing a PSN outage.

Some PlayStation players are experiencing a PSN outage

As seen in several PlayStation subreddit threads, some players are reporting PSN issues, some of which occurred last night. As seen in the megathread on the PlayStation subreddit, PlayStation players are claiming that friend lists, trophies, or friends’ activity won’t load. Additionally, others claim that online games are unplayable. As of this writing, some of these claims are coming in within the last hour.

The PSN issues don’t seem to be present in any specific location, as users from the U.K. and the U.S. have stated they’ve had issues. So, these issues don’t seem to be region-specific.

This does not seem to be impacting all users, as some did not even know there were issues present with PSN. So, this isn’t quite on the same scale as the February 2025 PSN outage, which lasted an entire day and impacted many more players. But is clearly an issue that select players are experiencing right now.

In my small test to see if I was impacted, everything seemed to work fine. Initially, it looked like my friends list or friends’ activity tabs were not loading. However, after booting up an online-only game, everything seemed to work as intended.

PlayStation has not made a statement regarding the PSN outage yet.

Alongside the PSN outage, players looking to play the highly anticipated Hollow Knight: Silksong may have had trouble earlier today. However, it was slated to launch at 10 a.m. ET, it was only available to wishlist for roughly the first three hours of its launch. The game also broke the Steam store and the Nintendo eShop, so it seems today is a big day to have server issues for all gamers.
