**New York, NY – February 9, 2025** – Sony has compensated PlayStation Plus subscribers with five extra days of service following a nearly 24-hour outage that affected PlayStation Network (PSN) users worldwide. The outage, which began on Saturday, February 8th, caused widespread connectivity issues, with players reporting error messages and login failures across social media.
PlayStation acknowledged the problem on Saturday, tweeting about ongoing issues with PSN. By Sunday, February 9th, the company announced that network services had been fully restored. In a statement on X (formerly Twitter), PlayStation apologized for the inconvenience and confirmed that all PlayStation Plus members would automatically receive a five-day extension to their subscriptions. The cause of the outage remains undisclosed.
The PlayStation Network, a vital online service allowing users to play online multiplayer games, purchase and download titles, manage accounts, and access streaming services, was inaccessible to millions of gamers during the disruption. The compensation aims to mitigate the frustration caused by the extended period of downtime.
