For now, the official PlayStation account on Twitter did not comment on the situation. Some testimonies tell how it is still possible access the menus online of some games, such as FIFA 22, which would mean a functioning of the service. However, when proceeding to play an online game where you need to have the PlayStation Plus, a mistake prevents you from being able to connect to the match. Sony is probably still investigating the possible causes that led to this situation, and hopefully it will be a matter of hours to resolve the matter as soon as possible. In the meantime, you will be able to explore the new features of this unfortunate update; in addition, the arrival of the variable refresh rate (VRR) for the next few months on PS5, which will dynamically synchronize the display refresh rate with the graphics output of the PS5, significantly improving visual performance.
