The PlayStation Network Should be Fully Armed and Operational by the End of the Week
Sony just announced that the PSN, down since April in the wake of an attack by hackers, will be fully restored (for most regions) by the end of the week.
The only regions where it won't be 100% back will be Japan, Hong Kong, and South Korea.
For everyone else, that means the following suite of PSN services should be back up and running by Friday:
- Full functionality on PlayStation®Store
- In-game commerce
- Ability to redeem vouchers and codes
- Full functionality on Music Unlimited powered by Qriocity for PS3, PSP, VAIO and other PCs
- Full functionality on Media Go
PlayStation boss Kaz Hirai says in a statement "We have been conducting additional testing and further security verification of our commerce functions in order to bring the PlayStation Network completely back online so that our fans can again enjoy the first class entertainment experience they have come to love."
"We appreciate the patience and support shown during this time."
