As far as Sony has revealed, the outage is not part of scheduled maintenance, so it’s difficult to predict how long the PlayStation Network will be down. Friday evenings are usually the start of many players’ gaming weekends, so this is sure to cause an inconvenience for anyone planning on purchasing, downloading or diving into January’s biggest release, Monster Hunter World.

And if you’re waiting for the PlayStation Network to come back online to engage in some monster hunting, make sure to read up on all the tips and tricks from our guides before you head out on your hunt.
