PlayStation Network Down: Helldivers 2 and More Games Offline!

It appears that Helldivers 2 on Windows PC, along with other games linked to PlayStation Network, are experiencing downtime at the moment. The PlayStation Japan account has announced this problem:

“[PlayStation Network Service Alert] Currently, the PlayStation Network (including the PlayStation Store) might be inaccessible. We deeply regret the inconvenience this may cause our users. We’re diligently working to pinpoint the issue and bring the service back online, so we ask for your patience.

Games with compulsory PlayStation Network integration may experience a significant impact, as the requirement for this service has been rescinded by Sony. Players logging in via PlayStation Network will need to disconnect from it to continue playing.

As a researcher delving into the world of Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered, I find myself, like many others, encountering an issue while attempting to log in for the single-player experience. On Steam, a fellow player expressed their frustration: “I seem to be stuck at the ‘Connecting…’ screen, presumably because the game is trying to connect to the PlayStation Network. Does anyone know any workarounds or secret commands that could help me bypass this issue?

Xbox has experienced difficulty launching single-player games during periods of downtime. Fortunately, an offline mode usually resolves the issue promptly; however, it doesn’t always work as expected. Let’s hope that PlayStation and Sony can swiftly address these outage issues so gamers can get back online to enjoy their games.
