PlayStation has announced that the PSN outage was due to an operational issue and it’s also confirmed that all PlayStation Plus subscribers will automatically get 5 free days of service added to their subscription, which isn’t bad given the outage lasted just under 24 hours.
On its X page, PlayStation confirmed: “Network services have fully recovered from an operational issue. We apologize for the inconvenience and thank the community for their patience. All PlayStation Plus members will automatically receive an additional 5 days of service”.
