Why Are Palworld Servers Down and Having Connection Issues This August 9:
Here’s the announcement from Pocket Pair regarding the server situation:
Hello everyone,
We have identified a critical error with the servers, and as a result, have had to take them offline while we work on fixing the problem.
Unfortunately, due to national holidays in Japan, we will be unable to fix them before the weekend. We will try our best to resolve this problem as soon as we can, and we apologize to those who will be unable to play on the official servers for the time being.
Thank you for your continued support

I think it’s the Sony fanboys that did a ddos atk on the Palworld servers because they haven’t got Palworld on PSN yet.
