15-18: Consider adding developer documentation linksThe related links section could be enhanced by including links to:
- PlayStation Network API documentation
- PlayStation Developer Portal
- The integration's source code in Home Assistant
This would help users and developers better understand the integration's capabilities.
24-24: Improve writing clarityConsider revising the sentence to be more concise:

It allows users to enjoy a variety of gaming-related services such as purchasing games, downloading content, and connecting with other players. +PlayStation Network (PSN) is a digital media entertainment service provided by [Sony Interactive Entertainment](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_Interactive_Entertainment).

52-52: Verify rate limit calculations and add update details
The integration makes 3 requests every 30 seconds:
- 6 requests per minute
- 360 requests per hour
- 90 requests per 15 minutes
While this is within the 300 requests/15 minutes limit, please:
- Specify what data is retrieved in each request
- Explain the retry strategy if rate limits are hit
- Consider implementing exponential backoff for failed requests
Also applies to: 58-58
6-6: Verify the release version
The release version 2025.1 seems unusually far in the future. Please verify if this is the intended version or if it should be adjusted to a nearer release.
✅ Verification successful
Let me verify the release version by checking other integration documentation files and Home Assistant's release patterns.
Let me try a different approach to check the documentation files and release patterns.
Based on the search results, I can see several integrations with release version 2025.1, including:
- watergate
- powerfox
- playstation_network
- slide_local
- ohme
- ituran
- eheimdigital
- cookidoo
This indicates that 2025.1 is a valid future release version used for upcoming integrations. Since this is a new integration (PlayStation Network) being added, setting the release version to 2025.1 appears to be intentional and follows the pattern used by other new integrations.
Release version 2025.1 is appropriate for this new integration
The version follows the established pattern for new integrations being added to Home Assistant, as evidenced by several other new integrations using the same future release version.

| ## Prerequisites for PlayStation Network integration | ||
|
|
||
| - To set up the PlayStation Network integration, you must first have an active PlayStation Network account. You can register for an account at the [Official PlayStation® Site](https://playstation.com/). | ||
| - During the setup process in Home Assistant, you will be asked to provide your NPSSO token. You will need to be logged into [playstation.com](https://playstation.com/) to access the token in your browser. You will find a link to retrieve the token in the config flow. |

🛠️ Refactor suggestion
Add specific instructions for NPSSO token retrieval
The documentation mentions that users will find a link to retrieve the token in the config flow, but it would be helpful to include:
- Direct steps to obtain the NPSSO token
- Screenshots or a visual guide
- Troubleshooting tips for common token retrieval issues
This would improve the user experience during setup.

32-33: Add specific instructions for NPSSO token retrieval.The documentation should include detailed steps for obtaining the NPSSO token to improve user experience during setup.
58-61: Verify rate limit calculations and provide more context.The documentation states 3 requests per update (every 30 seconds), which equals 360 requests per hour. This needs clarification:
- How does this align with the 300 requests per 15 minutes limit?
- What happens when the rate limit is exceeded?
|
|
||
| Please keep these limits in mind to avoid exceeding the PlayStation Network request allowance. | ||
|
|
||
| The Active state for each device is only reported via the API for the last used device. For example, if you start playing a game on your PS4 and without powering down, launch a game on your PS5, the API will only report your PS5 status. |

🛠️ Refactor suggestion
Clarify the device status limitation implications.
Consider adding:
- What users should expect when switching between consoles
- How this affects automations based on device status
- Recommended workarounds if available
| ## Use Cases | ||
|
|
||
| You can display your currently playing game as artwork on your dashboard. You can also send notifications of your currently playing game to others inviting them to join you. |

🛠️ Refactor suggestion
Expand the Use Cases section with more examples.
The current use cases are very brief. Consider adding:
- Detailed automation examples with YAML code snippets
- Common scenarios (e.g., game time tracking, parental controls)
- Integration with other Home Assistant features
