According to the latest report, Sony PlayStation Network experienced some glitches this morning (April 13). Lasting about 45 minutes, Sony’s PSN status page showed that all of its services were experiencing problems to some degree. These issues primarily affect users logging into accounts and connecting to PS Now services and PS stores. For now, the site shows that everything has returned to normal.
The scope of the problem is unclear. According to The Verge editor Jay Peters’s test, it can log in to an online game in Bloodline Curse and send a message to colleagues, but there’s a lot of content in the PS Store on PS5 that won’t load.
Some users have also experienced more serious problems, such as “Error code WS-37469-9”. On the web service detection site Dowdetector, more than 12,000 users are showing that the problem has been reported.
During the issue, Epic Games also tweeted that Fortnite PS console gamers who may be experiencing sign-in issues check the online status of Sony PSN. According to the Verge editing test, he can log back in after exiting the game, so the issue didn’t affect all players.
As of press time, Epic said the issue has been resolved. However, the cause of the failure has not yet been announced.
