(PS4) possible launcher issue "A connection error has occured.Please try again later"

[OnBrand]

I'm having an issue with the launcher at the moment with my PS4. Whenever I open the game it will display "A connection error has occured. Please try again later." instead of the news and login sections. The issue started yesterday and I've tried multiple things to resolve the issue (reseting my network, reseting my cache, deleting and redownloading the game) but nothing seems to help. The Loadstone, Patch Notes, Play Guide, and Optional Items links all work. Any and all help/advice would be greatly appreciated!

Good afternoon and thank you for posting on the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums.

We apologize for the delay in responding. Please try the following troubleshooting steps:

- Please make sure that "Cookies" and "JavaScript" are ENABLED on the PSN browser. If they are already checked, please uncheck them then recheck them.
- The issue could also be from the "Date & Time" settings on your PS4.
1. Close the FINAL FANTASY XIV game/application.
2. Go to [SETTINGS] on your PS4
3. Select [Date and Time], and "Set via Internet". (Please do not manually set the date and time.)
4. Once the date and time have been updated, please restart your PS4 console.
5. Once the console has fully restarted, please start the FINAL FANTASY XIV game/application.

Please make sure all other internet-enabled devices (including smartphones, laptop/desktop PCs, tablets, etc.) have been disabled and/or turned OFF to minimize game interference.

If the above steps do not resolve the issue, please check to see if the following port ranges are opened on your router. You can contact your ISP and request they open them for you:
▼TCP
54992 through 54994,
55006 through 55007,
55021 through 55040
