PSN Down as PS5, PS4 Players Can't Log In or Play Online

Update [Fri 7th Feb 2025, 4pm]: The PlayStation Service Status page has now updated, and shows that every part of the PlayStation Network is experiencing issues. It's been roughly 45 minutes since the outage began.

PlayStation itself is yet to make a statement on the downtime via social media — but that'll obviously have to change if this keeps up.

Again, this appears to be an incredibly widespread outage, with reports seemingly growing by the minute.

Original Story: The PlayStation Network is currently down and out for what seems to be most — if not all — PS5 and PS4 players.

Reports started coming in around 20 minutes ago, and the outage only seems to have become more widespread since. From what we can tell, this is total downtime; users can't sign in, access any network-based content, or play online.

Strangely, the official PSN Service Status page says that there are no issues at the time of writing. Clearly that's not the case, so we'll need to wait and see whether that page gets updated.

We'll also update this story as soon as we know more.

For what it's worth, major PSN problems have been practically nonexistent for years now. Small outages have come and gone at times, but Sony usually sorts out any issues very quickly. Hopefully that'll be the case here as well.
