Sony says it’ll “continue to reinforce and verify security for transactions before resuming the PlayStation Store and other Qriocity operations, scheduled for this month.” This appears to mean that the rest of the PSN will be back sometime in May. The PlayStation Store won’t be brought back immediately, much to the chagrin of game developers that rely on it for revenue. The first phase will also include returned access to Qriocity music services, to unexpired movie rentals, PlayStation Home, PSN friends lists, and chat. Logging in to the PSN will require users to change their passwords as part of newly implemented security measures. The “phased rollout” of services will begin with the restoration of the ability for PS3 and PSP owners to play games online, which is a big one. With the PSN shutdown now approaching 11 days, Sony has announced that it’ll be restoring certain aspects of the service this week, while other features will return in phases. The recent attack on Sony’s PlayStation Network captivated many nations around the world as people began to wonder just how safe their personal data was in the digital realm. Sony will soon restore the PlayStation Network in a “phased rollout,” adding enhanced security features and giving away customer appreciation bonuses.
