A broadly used PS5 function has been down for the final two weeks on each the console and the PS App, and Sony has but to acknowledge the problem. The corporate quickly took down PlayStation’s “Just lately Performed” part to repair a PS Retailer glitch earlier this month, and though the function returned shortly afterwards, it’s been busted ever since.
PS5 ‘Just lately Performed’ function went down following a recreation library bug on June 15
As we beforehand defined, someday round June 15, gamers abruptly began seeing raunchy video games of their libraries and the Just lately Performed part that they hadn’t bought. Sony took the function down to repair the issue, however the firm appears to have damaged one thing else.
It seems that PSN’s clock has been set again by a month or so, and all of the video games we’ve performed since then have both disappeared or don’t register in Just lately Performed. From what I’ve gathered, the issue impacts each disc-based and digital video games, however a lot of the complaints are coming from people who’re enjoying video games off of discs.
I, like many others, use the Just lately Performed function — particularly on the PS App — to verify recreation marketing campaign and trophy progress. Whereas there are different methods to verify each, going via the Just lately Performed part is fast and handy.
As a result of this difficulty, gamers can now not verify their marketing campaign completion share for the video games they’re enjoying through the PS App. On the PS5, the Just lately Performed widget within the Welcome Hub has been rendered ineffective, and gamers now need to hover over a recreation tile for an outline of their progress.
I’ve seen arguments that this isn’t a dealbreaker, however all of the complaints lodged on gaming boards over the previous two weeks counsel {that a} appreciable variety of gamers (myself included) use the Just lately Performed part ceaselessly. During the last day alone, a minimum of a dozen threads have popped up on the PlayStation subreddit, inquiring concerning the difficulty.
It’s definitely a bit annoying to have it damaged for this lengthy.
Reaching out to Sony has been of no use, as the corporate not often addresses such issues. There’s no ETA for a repair, then, so we’ll have to attend.
