Sadly it seems we’re going to have a bit longer for Home. According to a new joint press release from SCEA and SCEE, the closed beta testing will continue on through Summer with the proposed open beta not made available until Fall.

It is believed that more users will be invited to the closed beta during this period however. Here’s what the press release had to say:

We understand that we are asking PS3 and prospective PS3 users to wait a bit longer, but we have come to the conclusion that we need more time to refine the service to ensure a more focused gaming entertainment experience than what it is today,” said Kazuo Hirai, President and Group CEO, Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. “Our overarching objective is to provide users with new gaming experiences that are available only on PLAYSTATION Home. Spending more time on the development and on the Closed Beta testing reaffirms our commitment to bringing a quality service, maintaining the PlayStation tradition.
