PSN Update: Overlay Adjustments & Privacy Changes
Last night, PSN went down for scheduled server maintenance, and it had a ripple effect on the overlay. If your overlay looked broken or failed to pull in trophies, that’s why.
What Happened 🎮
The maintenance caused temporary downtime across PSN services. While everything came back online, the overlay had to be updated to ensure compatibility with the current PSN setup. That work is done — but some users may still experience hiccups as the changes roll out globally.
The Big Change: Privacy 🔒
As part of the server maintenance, PSN adjusted its privacy rules. If your PlayStation profile is set to private, the overlay can no longer access your trophy data. This isn’t a bug — it’s how PSN now handles profile privacy.
👉 If you want your trophies to display correctly in the overlay, make sure your PSN profile is set to public.
What This Means for You 🏆
-
If the overlay looks broken, check your PSN privacy settings first.
-
The stable overlay update is already live — no download or changes needed on your side.
-
Expect minor bumps as PSN stabilizes post-maintenance.
Final Word
This is part of building live tools on top of evolving platforms: PSN shifts, and we adapt. Thanks for rolling with the bumps. I’ll keep patching and testing so your overlay stays reliable for every stream.
