The official PlayStation Forums are closing down. The news comes via a short and brief post on the official site.

“Beginning 27th February, the PlayStation.com forums will no longer be available.”

For those that have used the forums for years, this will come as no shock. PlayStation has always struggled to keep the forums as a healthy and vibrant place for players to chat.

The news isn’t just on PlayStation’s end either, it seems the other Sony forums are being shut down as well.

Over at the Sony Mobile Forums they have a little more information, stating:

“This forum will be closed down early 2020 and moved to other Sony Electronics Community Forums worldwide.

We aim to transfer parts of the existing content to these new Communities, but it might take some time before it is completed. We will keep this forum open for comments for some time but please note that any comments posted from now on will not be transferred.

Members from USA, Canada and Asia Pacific can begin using these Communities now. Members from Europe should continue to use the current Mobile Forum until it is closed down.”

Let us know if you’re a regular user of any Sony forums and if this change will affect you.
