Sony Announces PSN Maintenance This Week

Kicking off on Thursday.

Sony has announced the PlayStation Network will be offline for four hours to enable scheduled maintenance, beginning at 9pm GMT+4 on Thursday 15.

During the maintenance, you'll be unable to access the PS Store, PSN account management or registration and entertainment services. Online gameplay will also be unavailable, though you can get around this by signing into your account before the maintenance kicks off.

PlayStation 4 outsold Xbox One for nearly an entire year straight, before Xbox One became the best-selling console in the US last November. At that point, Layden detailed that PlayStation 4 had shipped 13.5 million consoles to stores. The consoles sales figures now sit at 18.5 million.

Last week, Sony revealed its subscription plans for PlayStation Now, and over the holiday, the company apologized for PlayStation Network outageswith rewards for its users.
