Sony untersucht aktiv Probleme mit PS4-Online-Spielen

Sony confirmed today that it is actively investigating a growing number of cases where PlayStation 4 players are getting locked out of online features in games such as Killzone: Shadow Fall, Call of Duty: Ghosts and Battlefield 4.

According to Sony, affected users receive a misleading message informing them that they need PlayStation Plus to play online.

The problem was acknowledged by PlayStation Europe community manager Chris Owen on Twitter.

Anyone on #PS4 getting the message 'You need PS Plus to play online' There is no problem with your subscription. we are investigating ATM
