A number of PlayStation 3 games will be unavailable to play online next Tuesday due to a fresh round of scheduled maintenance, Sony has announced.

The downtime will last from 6am to midday next Tuesday, 15th November, a post on the official EU PlayStation forums has revealed.

Home, Buzz, Motorstorm.com and Wipeout HD will be completely unavailable during this time.

DanceStar Party, Singstar, Killzone 3, SOCOM: Confrontation and SOCOM: FTB3 should still be available but will "suffer reduced capacity".

There may be additional downtime after to allow for further testing, Sony warned.

Sony did not mention what was being tested during the outage.
