PSN to be renamed to SEN (Sony Entertainment Network)

Uh, so, Sony is going to change the name of PSN, to SEN – which stands for Sony Entertainment Network. They are sending mails to users informing them of this change.

You will not be required to do anything, as the name change will be seamless. Although, you will be required to accept the new TOS for singing in to SEN.

This is what they’re sending users:

On February 8, 2012, your “PlayStation®Network account” will be renamed a “Sony Entertainment Network account” or a “SEN account” in conjunction with Sony Computer Entertainment’s PlayStation®3 system software and PlayStation®Vita system software updates. (Note, this change will not be applied to the PSP® (PlayStation®Portable) system at this time.)

For general purposes, this account change is a change in name only. Your username or password will not change, nor are we asking you to change them. In accordance with this transition, some necessary naming changes will be made to the TOS and Privacy Policy.

This transition is based on Sony’s goal to enhance its unique digital entertainment offering. As a series of these activities Sony started last September, PlayStation®Network will be aligned with “Sony Entertainment Network.” This helps us get closer to our goal of establishing a global comprehensive network platform of services across games, movies, music and more, all accessible from one convenient account.

Thank you for your continued loyalty and support during this transition.

Sincerely,

The Sony Entertainment Network Team
