PSN Scheduled Maintenance For This Tuesday

by MoreLikeAndy

Over at the official PlayStation Blog, Community Manager Paul Sullivan states that PSN will undergo maintenance this Tuesday, June 25th.

From 9:30AM PT (10:30AM MT / 11:30AM CT / 12:30 PM ET) until 4:00PM PT (5:00PM MT / 6:00PM CT / 7:00PM ET), PSN will be inaccessible. Good news is if you sign into PSN from now until before the maintenance starts, you’ll still be able to access online gaming as well as apps like Netflix.

It’s not explained in the blog post if you have to remain signed in to PSN in order to access online play and apps so to be on the safe side, I would suggest signing in a little before start time and stay signed in if you want to do anything during the maintenance period.

Since the PS3 4.45 firmware fiasco last week, this could also be Sony prepping for the fix being released on June 27th.
