It’s been a rough start for Street Fighter V’s first beta test on PlayStation 4. After players reported issues trying to get into the game, Capcom extended the nightly planned maintenance downtime to try to address issues that were keeping players from logging into the server.
However, after going back up sometime early this morning, the login issues have still been persistent. In light of this, Capcom will now be taking down the servers again for another period of extended maintenance to get to the root of the problem.
(1/2) The SFV closed beta test is entering a period of extended maintenance in order to fix issues preventing the beta from loading.

No timeline has as of yet been given for how long this extended maintenance period will take.
While issues like this are par for the course for online beta tests, Capcom are aware that many of their fans have been quite disappointed with these issues. Capcom’s Yoshinori Ono has offered his apologies for these developments while promising that the beta will be rescheduled.
I’m very apologetic towards players.I’m sorry that I don’t have enough ability about SFV beta.Plz give me chance for re-scheduling SFV beta.

As has been previously reported, Capcom plans to extend the beta period for an unspecified amount of time.
