PlayStation Network outage is blocking access to games

The PlayStation Network is currently down, causing issues for players trying to access games and services across PS3, PS Vita, PS4 and PS5 consoles. 

The issues began at around 12PM GMT. Currently, the PlayStation status page says “some services are experiencing issues” across all PlayStation platforms. Due to the outage, users are currently unable to access the PS Store, PS Now, PS Plus, and some PSN-reliant games.

Sony has acknowledged the outage on its Japanese support Twitter account, but has yet to share the message on its other pages. Still, we know the company is working to address the situation. It is also worth noting that the outage isn't impacting everyone globally, so some areas may still have access.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
