Today's a pretty big day for game releases, but, as per usual, something's went a bit wrong on the PlayStation Store.
Many users are reporting that they can't download or preload Dragon Ball XenoVerse and Resident Evil: Revelations 2. This appears to be caused by some sort of problem with Sony's service, but the company has stated on Twitter that it's looking into the issues. Hopefully, things are resolved sooner rather than later.
Since we're just beginning to really get into the onslaught of titles releasing in the next few weeks, this isn't a great start, but at least it looks like both games have turned out nicely. Speaking of which, you can read our Dragon Ball XenoVerse review through here, and peruse Resident Evil: Revelations 2's review round-up through here.

good thing I don't do digital
Physical FTW!
Resident Evil: Revelations 2 seems to download fine for me. The download is super slow though.
@belmont Seems like it could just be server strain.
I rarely download games anyway, so it's not a big deal. I buy physical unless there's a beastly sale on the PlayStation Store. Things happen, man.
I just tried to purchase Dragon Ball XenoVerse so what can I do to fix this issue.
@grantmjohnston here is the fix: just go to the playstation store website (https://store.sonyentertainmentnetwork.com/#!/en-gb/home/games)- search for dragon ball and open the site where you can buy the game. Now either buy the game or in case you bought it already just click on "download". Now hit "download" to your ps4. Now the game appears in your download queue and will start downloading once you boot up your primary ps4. I hope this helps (just donwloaded RE Revelations 2 this way^^).
I can't wait for that all digital future everybody seems so eager for us to enter into.
I've got a different problem. The game downloaded just fine. When i started it, it said it can now be used. When i tried to go back in , It has a padlock icon saying please purchase the content. Erm its purchased n just keeps taking me to psn store with no option to do anything since its already been paid. Stuck in this loop
@Gamer83 You mean the all digital future that Apple and Google (and several other companies) have firmly embraced and are delivering without issues? If you are referring to Sony's all digital future then yea, it will be painful. It will also likely be short.
@ShogunRok It also seems like we should almost come to expect server strain. Sony has a generic set of problems and answers. They're definitely at risk of falling out of touch with there customers, I can speak for myself at least. This ship needs to be tightened.
I didn't have a problem with Revelation's was lucky I guess, it's soo frustrating when this crap happen's, gl hope you get it sorted soon. Sony AGAIN...
has anyone else had this problem with resident evil revelations 2. i have downloaded the game no problem go through all the process of starting the game but when to the part when you finnaly get to load the main menu to start a game all it does is stay on the loading screen any help with this would be great.Ps i have re dowloaded this game about 6 times
@culljose: I got the same problem and just contacted PSN support. CAPCOM has a problem with its servers, so when the loading screen is freezing, it's only possible to play offtime for the time being. I tried it out, and I can start the game when disconnected from PSN.
