Earlier in the week reports flooded in surrounding the flashing blue light emitting from the new Sony PS4 gaming console. But now Sony seems to have solved the problem, or at least it thinks it has.
It seems as though Sony may have cracked the case; the company found that there might have been a few consoles damaged during shipping, causing the console to go on the fritz.
Since the November 15 US release of the new PS4, gamers from around the country have been confused by bright ‘blue light of death’ coming from their consoles.
Along with other reports of faulty HDMI jacks, the blue light complaints were reported to Sony, which assured users that the company was working on figuring out the cause, and hopefully a solution.
When the reports first surfaced the company insisted that the number of affected consoles was only 1% and it seems as though it is still staying with that statement. Satoshi Nakajima, a spokesperson from Sony told Bloomberg: “there have been several issues reported, which leads us to believe there isn’t a singular problem that could impact a broader percentage of PS4 units.”
The PS4 will be avaliable in the UK from November 29th whilst it's main rival, the Xbox One, was released globally last night.
Looks like you could be safe if you collect your console directly from the store but be sure to check for any damage during shipping if you are having it delivered to you.
