PlayStation 5 owners report online issues following system update
eurogamer.netPlayStation owners are reporting issues connecting to servers in Elden Ring, Grand Theft Auto, Call of Duty Vanguard and other games.
The issue follows the release this morning of Sony's new PlayStation 5 system software update.
Elden Ring fans are being greeted by an error message which states that Sony's servers «could not verify PlayStation Plus subscription».

A subsequent update on the Elden Ring Twitter account has now cautioned that «the server maintenance for PlayStation/Steam will be prolonged».
