Japan has posted that they are aware of the situation and are investigating.

Bugger I am brand new to the game (despite a small stint when it first came out in Japan..but oh the hackers back then drove me away). I for one hate min/max rewards silliness and power gaming to boot (preferring actual silliness and oddball adventures).. heard there was a good community under the radar hope this a good spot to find folks.... now to find a race/class to play >.>

How often do the servers usually go down for? I just hope they are back on when I wake up tomorrow. I love PSO and played that for years, just switched over to PSU and it's pretty awesome so far. Especially since I found the RAmar costume to wear.

Maybe their was a hack attack from a Psu player because of the bad service D;

Can't really estimate on this one. Seems very unattended. All we can do is hope its fixed tomorrow.

Hey everyone,

Edward is up and working with the team right now, but just a little heads up that this was caused by a bigger power failure here in SF, and they're working to get everything back up now. Since all power was lost, the game servers, website, and even the SEGA forums are all down until everything is restored.

We're hoping to get it back up and running asap - thanks for your patience!

Good to have some news. Figured it was something major. Great to be in the loop and not in the dark.

Thankfully, my sleep patterns go out the window on the weekends and staying up until 4 AM is not always unheard of. Just glad to be able to get some news out there.

So, Clumsy was seen at the San Fransisco power plant with his morning coffee, I see.
