Stream overlay
Add PlayStation, Steam, Xbox and other game platforms to your OBS scene. The overlay is free, uses a transparent background, and only shows a problem when our evidence says something is wrong.
OBS browser source
In OBS, add a Browser source and paste this URL. Suggested size: 360×220 pixels. Shutdown source when not visible can stay off so it keeps refreshing.
How to read it
Outage-only mode stays quiet until something is wrong. Labels are: confirmed outage, users reporting problems, vendor-reported, or checks unclear. If you turn on “always show,” a quiet service is labeled “No problems detected by our checks,” never “Online.”
Our platform checks test public websites (for example playstation.com or the Steam store). Sign-in, matchmaking or other online services can fail without those pages going down, so our checks may not see it. A vendor notice alone is not a confirmed outage.
This overlay is independent measurement, provided as is, for information only. It can be wrong or late. It is not an official status page, not a statement of fact about any company, and not an endorsement. How we detect and verify outages.
