The glossy revamp of Sony’s PlayStation Store has been delayed in several territories, including the United States, Canada, Mexico and Brazil. Sony Network Entertainment VP Eric Lempel says “an exceptional experience with the new store” must be certain before a new launch date is announced, and that means adjusting the overhaul in response to inconvenient issues that have bothered customers elsewhere.
The new PlayStation Store for PlayStation 3 earlier this week in Australia, New Zealand and several countries in Europe. Although the new PS Store is operating smoothly in most countries, there have been some issues that caused inconvenience for users.
Sony decided to postpone the October 23rd launch of the new store in the United States, Canada, Mexico, and Brazil. They want to be certain that you have an exceptional experience with the new store, so they appreciate your patience as they complete the final phases before launch.
The existing PS Store will be fully operational with the game, movie, and TV content that you enjoy today.
