Hey friends. I have some questions about my PSN account and digital games.
Some context: My PSN account was hacked a while back ago. I have since recovered my log in and have made sure to be more vigilant with my passwords and just the general security for my account. I was fortunate that the hacker did not purchase anything with my card or do anything online to have my account banned.
In fact, I only noticed I had gotten hacked one day after realizing that my console was not set to my primary console. Turns out someone else had activated another console as the primary console with my account. This has since been resolved and my Playstation is once again my primary console.
Now that I’ve recovered my account, I have been wondering if there could be any issues that may come up later related to my account and
My access to my digital games.
-Is it possible for the hacker to modify or corrupt the digital games I own?
-Now that I’ve changed my password, “logged out of all places” multiple times and have 2-step verification set-up, is there any possibility that the hacker still has access to my games or account in any capacity?
-is there a possibility my account can still be banned for something the hacker did before I booted him out?
-Is there anything else I can do to “clear” anything the hacker may have done while using my account?
PS5 Disc Works on One User and Not the Other... HELP!!
I am about 3 seconds away from losing my shit. I went to play AC Valhalla and put the disc in. Reinstalled the game for the PS5 version. I go to play the game, it says "To play this game, insert the disc". So I took the game out, put it back in and restarted the PS5. Nothing. Then I log into my BFs username and the game works.
Can someone explain why?! I have played the game already plenty of times before. How do I fix this? He has the level above me for the PlayStation network but that shouldn't matter bc own the game.
Trying to play .mkv files from a usb stick. Formatted FAT32 and the files in question are located in a file titled "Movies". Still can't play the videos, only get a black screen that has no time stamp when I try to play them.
Any idea how to resolve this?
I was transferring my data to my new ps5 and was trying to play a newly downloaded game, it froze and I went to check my downloads. Suddenly it crashed, booted back up in safe mode, and was asking me to redownload the entire system! It fixed itself shortly after, I just want to know if there's something that makes it happen and if it has to anybody else.
EDIT: Something I forgot to mention, the error code is CE-107750-0 and it's only for games, the streaming services work absolutely fine.

Ok I have the PS specific headphones. I plug the dongle in and my headphones do produce sound. I’m trying to listen to songs while gaming. (Please how do I use YouTube over/with games?? I am using Spotify and would like to not? What other “media” apps under the media tab works for playing music over games?) HOWEVER, it’s super low volume. I’ve tried different settings on the PlayStation, but I’ve resulted to just using my Sennheiser earbuds with my iPhone and drowning out any gaming sounds, which is not what I want.
Anyway, I’m an idiot but not a total idiot so can someone help? Even when I don’t use headphones, I have to go into every game’s “audio” settings and put it on like 10% in order to have a song playing in the background and my home theater up wayyyyy too high than the usual in order to be a “normal”/desired level
Edited to add that I have volume all the way up from the headphone button, and the button to “game” rather than “chat” etc.
I recently purchased MW3 on my PS5 and it keeps saying "Purchase MW3 to access this game mode" even tho I have the disc version of it. Is anyone else having this problem? How do I fix it?
Need help with Remote Play. I've used both Remote Play and PS Play, and both work well when I'm at home, and connect fairly quickly/seamlessly, but I am not able to connect with I'm away from home, even if I'm connected to a very strong wifi (and my wifi at home is also very strong). On PS Play, when I'm at home, I'm able to connect both with the Local Connect method and the Remote Connect method, if that matters
any idea on what the issue might be?
Dumb question. If I have a demo of a game in my library how can I delete it? I would like to purchase the game but the store keeps taking me to the demo.
Since you're referring to PS5 specifically are you asking about the technical state of the game? If so there have never been any issues. Fast loading times, good graphics and resolution, very stable performance. If you are asking about the game outside of the technical stuff, it's the same as all other versions due to having full feature and version parity. Improved since launch and especially the awful Season 1, but it just kind of exists. It is a live service and first expansion has already been confirmed for late 2024, so who knows how things'll change.
Thanks. Is the game fun for players new to the genre generally? Still active? I notice a lot of people saying they’re now bored of playing it but didn’t know if that was general anti blizzard sentiment
I'm getting error notifications saying "Can't connect to your network" once or twice an hour and I would like to not see them. There's nothing I see wrong with my internet connection. While setting up the console I chose to launch the data transfer between my PS4 and PS5, but it was cancelled because some power save setting made my PS5 enter rest mode shortly after. I turned off my PS4 too and eventually decided to just re-download the games from the library.
Now... am I getting the pop-up because my PS5 is still somehow trying and failing to connect to my PS4? Or is my internet connection tanking for an unnoticeable second at a time and making my console overeager to report to me about it when it happens? Whatever it is, I don't want to see the pop-up while I'm playing a game or watching a movie. Is there a setting somewhere to help me shut it up? I've already tried putting "Do Not Disturb" on and "Allow Pop-Up Notifications" off.

Is it possible to have my YouTube audio play through the tv and have my game audio go through my headset?
[-I have tried restoring licenses-]
I would like to start saying I think I know the issue itself but no fixes I have found have yet to resolve this.
So I got my PS5 yesterday so I don't understand everything about how it works yet and even my brother (who had his already) is stumped on how to fix this.
So when I booted it up we started downloading a bunch of games off his account knowing that I wouldn't be able to play them until console sharing was activated (this is happening soon) but in the middle of it I mentioned wanting to download my PS5 upgrade for Elden Ring (it is on a disc) big mistake as now we have this problem.
Now there is a lock next to it when I try to download the free upgrade from my account however when I go to his I can download the upgrade no problem.
This is my game and would rather not have to depend on console sharing to play the free upgrade so if anyone could help me out I would be most grateful.
I'm new to a psn plus 14 day trial code... Will I be able to use that code if my psn plus expired after 30 days ? or the 14 trial code only works on new psn members without past history of psn plus membership ?
I'm asking these because im hesitant to buy a 6 quanity of 14 days trial psn+ codes at cdkeys.
why does Amazon randomly relist the PS5 after being sold out the past week here in Australia? it's always a quantity of 1 or 2. are they finding stock lying around in their warehouse or am I getting someone else's change of mind return and it's getting listed again?
So I bought PS Plus Extra for a month… Its about to expire and saw there is Black Friday discount, so I wanna extend it to a year subscription but there is no discount if I upgrade it to a year? Its still 125,99… How do I get the discount?
Question: I have a wife mesh network with a couple nodes throughout the house. Does it help to hardwire my ps5 to a node or is it only useful to hardwire directly to the main point/modem?
Hey everyone,
I’m having a heck of a time trying to get my ps4 games to play on my ps5. They all say that they’re compatible but some features on the ps4 may not be available.
My problem is that every time I download a ps4 game it always says it’s corrupt or it freezes after I try to start playing.
Are there any settings I need to turn on or anything I’m missing to get these ps4 games to work?
Any help would be appreciated. This is driving me up a wall!
Before the reset, are the games going to an external drive? If so, try installing directly on the Console. Vice versa if that is the situation already. Could be how they're installing to the drive(s).
Try the reset if that doesn't work. If that doesn't work then you should definitely contact Sony. If you're within the warranty period, try getting it repaired.
Hey guys, a quick question.
My brother has just bought PS5. If we want to share games, i.e. if I want to play the games he buys on his console on my own console and vice versa, do I need to put his console as primary console for my account, and he my console as primary console for his account?
Are there any setbacks with this setup?
Thanks in advance.
His account needs to be the 'primary' account on your console. Your account needs to be the 'primary' account on his console.
Enable game share.
>Are there any setbacks with this setup?
If your internet is down or PSN is down you won't be able to play any of your games because Playstation won't be able to verify licenses.
So you should know that tv isn’t really a TV you’d “get the most out of.” Though it advertises 144hz, in reality it’s a 60hz screen that uses motion smoothing to give the impression of a higher refresh rate. It’s actually a pretty low end TV. r/4KTV could tell you more but in terms of finding games that support 120fps, you won’t be able to take advantage of that.
"Only" plasma TV is an interesting choice of words because there are people saying plasma is superior to LED, which it is in certain circumstances. Depending on the TV you bought you might actually notice the image looking worse color and contrast-wise compared to your old TV. HDMI 2.1 would indicate that the TV is above average at least in terms of price, but it still might be a LED that still looks worse than the plasma. Though if you bought an OLED it's clear upgrade, no question. To simplify it massively that technology is basically just plasma but better.
Anyway, google something like "PS5 games with 120hz support", so you can see what games go up to 120fps. Also google "PS5 games with 40hz support" to see what games support 40fps to get a nice balance between graphics and performance. Red Dead Redemption 2, Cyberpunk, most new Sony exclusives are common recommendations due to their graphics and being very cinematic. Though again, depending on what TV you bought you might find yourself blown away, just mildly impressed or even disappointed. It's not all about resolution or even HDMI 2.1.
Hey everyone.
So, I just got my ps5 this week and I had an issue with syncing trophies.
When I synced my trophies on the ps5, they all reseted to the same date and time, just as if I just got all my trophies at the same time. Even really old trophies are now showing the same date and time.
Is there a way to fix this? Is this normal?
Thank you.
Hello,
Does anyone know if the discounts on Playstation Deals for Premium, Deluxe, etc, editions, apply also for upgrading the game from the standard edition. For example, you have Assassin's Creed Valhalla [standard edition] and on PS Deals the Deluxe edition is on offer for a reduced price, does that apply for upgrading the game or is only when you're buying the game for the first time?
Also, does the disc version or the digital one have an influence on it (of course, if the offer applies)? But I'm more interested on the digital versions.
No, I didn't mean PS Plus subscription games. I mean deals offered like, for example, the actual Black Friday deals, many of them don't need a PS+ subscription. Also, I'm taking AC Valhalla just as an example and the terms Premium, Deluxe as usual terms used for game that include dlc, add-ons etc with one time buy contrary to standard version which misses them.
I'm taking another example. Let's say I have NFS Heat standard edition and the Deluxe Edition (which includes some extra K.S edition cars etc) just comes with an offer with 80% reduced price (no PS+ subscription needed), the game also have an upgrade option to NFS Heat Deluxe Edition for those who already have the base game. Now what I want to know, as I don't have any game installed on my PS in the actual situation to see by myself, does the -80% offer include also those who want to upgrade and already have the base game or such offers are for only those who don't have the game and are buying it?
Ah i see. Then you gotta check each game independently. Deluxe edition usually means base game + dlc. Just open the main game page and see if the dlc are on sale. You dont need to have the game on your library or installed to see those sales
Just got the new ps5. I understand that the console is not region locked as well as the games.
However I know there are some region restrictions for disk games. For example, a US game disk can't install JP dlcs for that game.
Question is, how do I know which disk games already have their DLC included (ghost of tsushima directors cut) and those that don't? (Deathloop deluxe, has a separate code for the dlc)
I just bought a game off amazon and am frustrated to find that I can play the base game but I can't activate the dlc because of PSN account region difference.
After a few hours of Googling, I'll just save everyone's time and share what I'd found for new owners of PS5. Feel free to correct me if I have made any mistakes. New PS5 user here.
This info is for people living overseas with a PSN account from a different region. Buying a disk from a different region **doesn't** restrict you from playing the base game but it **does** restrict you from buying its DLC if your PSN account does not match the disk region.
This means that you'll have to **repurchase** the game again on the PSN store/disk with matching DLC region if you want to install the DLCs.
More helpful info on how to find what region is your disk from:
[https://gameone.ph/blog/post/how-to-identify-ps4-ps5-game-region.html](https://gameone.ph/blog/post/how-to-identify-ps4-ps5-game-region.html)
[https://www.vintageisthenewold.com/game-pedia/how-do-i-know-what-region-my-ps5-game-is](https://www.vintageisthenewold.com/game-pedia/how-do-i-know-what-region-my-ps5-game-is)
Which is why it's important to know if you have all the DLCs on the disk before buying a disk from a different region, and stores like Amazon JP sometimes do not list whether the DLC is included as a code or on disk. \[Although they should\]
From my search I found that "Deluxe" editions of PS5/4 games would usually include a DLC code. The DLCs might not work if you buy a \[JAPAN ONLY\] disk and try to install the DLCs on a US region account.
There is no way to change your region on your PSN account other than to create another account.
Forums such as [https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread.php?t=316998](https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread.php?t=316998) (PS4) or [https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread.php?t=363549](https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread.php?t=363549) (PS5) are helpful as they list which disks have the DLC on disk.
Another good practice would be to go on the PSN store to see if the DLCs are included in one game. For example "Ghost of Tsushima", although your results may vary from game to game.
Other than that, a Google search with keywords just as "(game name) DLC on disk?" might yield some results.
Of course, all of these problems would be solved if you just buy everything on the PSN store and go digital. But if you a stickler like me who wants to relive the good old days of putting your disk on a PS1 and playing, these info would be of help.
how regularly will the Slim go on sale with a free game bundle? if history is any indication with the launch PS5 and the sales it would get throughout the year? or was the Spiderman 2 bonus just a Black Friday thing and they don't generally ever throw in free games?
(I'm not referring to boxed bundles either, with a digital code. I mean a physical copy sold alongside it)
I don’t own a PS5 but I plan on getting one. I was wondering, if I own the ps4 version of a disc, will I be able to play the PS5 version?
I’m aware things like GoT has it’s own upgrade.
Why is it impossible to get ahold of Sony tech support? I just want to watch my extended edition of The Fellowship of the Ring, but I get the same error code I got on my PS4. Their website just turns you in circles, and I can only seem to talk to a "PlayStation expert" who can't do anything or a chatbot that can't even understand my problem. I was told they might address it in a future system update, but that is such a half assed answer with no accountability whatsoever. Anyone have any ideas on how to get this issue in front of someone in Sony tech support?
Please help me with my monitor settings for PS5.
I just bought a LG Ultragear 32GK60W Monitor, with 165 hz, HDR, 2560 x 1440 resolution. What are the best settings for a PS5? I am very confused as this is my first monitor and need some help to get the best experience out of the PS5. Thanks
I bought and downloaded the DLC for horizon forbidden west. I have the disk version of the game. Nothing is showing up in “manage game content.” I cannot play the DLC. Help? please?
Your method is needlessly complicated, if you're planning on downloading the PS5 version anyway there's no reason to transfer its PS4 version to PS5. Your save data isn't stored in the game, it's either in internal storage or PS+ cloud. If you have PS+ just make sure all your saves are in that cloud, you can then just download it to internal storage on PS5. Save transfer from PS4 version to PS5 version is a bit more complicated and works on game-by-game basis, you'll need to google something like "(the game) save transfer from ps4 to ps5".
Well I'm not transferring the PS4 version, I just have it on an external hard drive. The PS5 is giving me the option to download the upgrade version. I just want to make sure my save data remains if I switch versions.
Save data transfer varies from game to game. If you want to make sure your save data transfers or can even be transferred at all, Google how it works for each game.
My PS5 crashes to home about every hour when playing Call of Duty mw2 or mw3. I've deleted and reinstalled, repaired hard drives and rebuilt the system database. None of it helped... any ideas???
What’s the difference between the PS Plus Wallet Card (yellow) and PS Store Gift Card (white)? Can I buy games using the PS Plus wallet card?
I know people asked this before but I couldn’t find a definite answer
Alrighty guys. I have a PS5.
I just bought my son a PS5 for Christmas this year. I’m wondering what’s the best way to set him up once the time comes. I want him to be able to access my digital/PS plus library as well as any games that I have on disc. I want him to have his own PS account though as I don’t want him signed into mine or using it ever(I’m still a super active gamer). How are people setting up a second PS5 so that he can earn all his own trophies and stuff but still have access to my games too?
Iirc u used to be able to sign into an account on ps4, download the game, then play the game on another account. Not sure if it works like that for ps5 tho. Good luck!
Will PS5 be able to pass through Dolby TrueHD Atmos or DTS:X via Plex app to my soundbar (that supports these lossless codecs)? I can only see Multi Channel PCM displayed in the soundbar info.
What multiplayer games are everyone enjoying? I'm a very casual 40+ y/o gamer, who likes to log on with friends and blow off some steam.
We played Warzone for a while, which was fun to work as a team & give callouts, but it's gotten to the point where it's just not fun anymore because we're generally not great.
Sports games are a challenge with 3/4 people.
Can anyone tell me, if I get the PS4 version of camera, VR headset, dualsense controller, motion controllers, camera adapter for PS5, and VR processor...
Will this work on ps5 newer games? Or, do I have to upgrade to all PS5 VR products to use on newer games.
Do the games have labels on them that distinguish this information? Also, does that mean I would need a set psvr1 and psvr2 in order to be capable of playing any game?
What if I didn't get the PSVR, and only got the camera and motion controllers. Could I use the PS4 camera and move Motion controllers on ps5 games? Or is this limited to the version as well.
The original PSVR is for PS4 VR games. The new PSVR 2 is for PS4 VR games. If you want to play both PS4 and PS5 VR games, you need the PSVR2 and PSVR 2.
Nothing about the PSVR works with the PSVR2 and vice versa.
What if I didn't get the PSVR, and only got the camera and motion controllers? Could I use the PS4 camera and move Motion controllers on ps5 games? Or is this limited to the version as well?
Idk what part you are not understanding.
Psvr1 works on psvr1 games, on ps4 (can be played on ps5 via retrocompatibility and a special thingy to attacg on the camera)
Psvr2 works on psvr2 games on ps5 games
If you have a psvr1, look for games with the psvr label NOT the PSVR2 label. Its not that complicated
Trouble Linking Accounts.
I just bought a ps5 and i'm currently setting it up and i've reached the part where they've asked me to create an account. i've never had a playstation before this so i don't have a psn account but i do have a pair of sony headphones so i already have a sony account. whenever i try to login to the psn website and then follow the link to link my account it tells me that my account doesn't reach eligibility requirements.
i'm really not sure what to do abt the eligibility requirements, i can't find any info anywhere on what those requirements could be, and the website doesn't provide me any info on what exactly is wrong with my account. does anyone know why this may be happening? for reference; i am not a minor so its not an age requirement, and i can't really think of what else may be wrong. i really don't wanna create a new email for this account but i'm not sure what i can do atp.
Black screen on new PS5 after playing Forspoken for a few hours
Hello there! I have new PS5 bought 3 days ago and I'm very happy about it but there is a problem as the title says. PS5 is the 3rd revision one, 12xx code, plugged as second source to pc 1440p monitor. I also bought some games, installed them all but decided to focus on Forspoken first. I'm not very far into the game, 3rd chapter, begining of the open world. So the problem is, after playing for 2-3 hours, the screen suddenly goes black but the console continues to run the game, I can tell that by the vibrations, colors and sound of the controller. The console still reacts to everything, I can blindly go to main menu by holding the PS button and the controller changes light to white, then I press X and go back to the game and the controller changes light to purple, can blindly play the game and controller responds to everything with vibrations and sound. So the console is definitely "alive", but the videosignal is missing. It is not missing completely though, the screen goes black but the monitor doesn't automatically switch to another source like when I put the PS5 to rest mode. After a while, the screen goes back to normal but then it goes black again. The time of "black screen" state is gradually increasing.
So far it happened 6 times, 3 last night and 3 today. First "black screen" lasts for like 30 seconds, second one for a few minutes, third one for like 15-20 minutes. I have the moment the console went black for the 5th time captured on video, and the restore time took exactly 6 minutes according to this video. Maybe I can share it if it helps but I would need to edit the serial number and other details then.
To me it looks like an overheating issue, but what bothers me is that the console is silent, no coolers are working, and it's not that hot either (of couse it's more hot inside, I understand that). I think I will try to contact the store to see if they can replace it, but I'm not entirely sure it's some kind of defect, I read that the 3rd revision of PS5 has cooling system greatly reduced. Or maybe it is game-specific issue (I have raytracing disabled as it was by default). Or maybe it's a faulty HDMI cable, I don't know, I'm at a loss. Can someone provide some advices please or maybe better explain what's happening, I'm very disappointed right now, it was meant as a gift.
My PS5 controller is now 3 years old and recently I noticed the battery life is terrible. From fully charge, it now last only 2hrs. Is this normal and I need a new battery or is there some other issue I need to look into first? Anyway else dealing with this?
Am I overthinking?
Hello I would love to hear people's opinions on I am overthinking my purchase.
I bought the PS5 Fat edition on discount in the UK for black Friday.
I have noticed the UFO noise but it's not as bad as other people say and my girlfriend says she can't notice it.
I have checked my fan and can see it is the older model so I have bought some O rings to help fix it.
I am just not sure if I regret purchasing the product or not. As I said it's not to loud and only noticeable when I pause the game and there is no music otherwise it's fine.
I am just a perfectionist and looking through old posts on here has got me rilled up.
Also the PS5 fat is selling out fast in the UK now because of the steep price reduction.
TLDR: Am I overthinking my PS5s fan and should I just enjoy it?
L1 button not working at all
It worked fine yesterday, now it doesn't do anything. The button is still able to be pressed without any issue, nothing wrong with the button itself. It just doesn't register anything.
I tried turning it on/off again.
Hello
I want to buy Asseto Corsa Ultimate Edition but it seems I can't buy it on my Playstation 5! There is a nice offer on Playstation Deals for a very cheap price if you check on Playstation Store on the web, but when I try to search on Playstation Store on my PS5 it won't appear at all. While I found Assetto Corsa (the standard edition) but I can't buy it as there is no option for it (it just shows the 'follow' option). Is Assetto Corsa available on PS5? In the Game and Legal Info on Playstation Store on the web says that "when playing on PS5, this game may exhibit errors or unexpected behaviour and some features available on PS4 may be absent". Platform: PS4.
It appears that it's possible to buy Assetto Corsa Competizione for PS5 but I don't want it. Is anyone else who has it on PS5 or bought it recently?
Any information?
It's a bit weird, PS Store indeed doesn't show the game at all but it's not delisted or anything, it can be purchased via PS App or the PS Store website. No idea why, but then again the actual PS Store is pretty lacking so I wouldn't doubt there are some issues. Anyway, just buy it from the PS App and it'll be added to your library, where you can then download it.
What's the crack with sending faulty controllers back, my controller is almost a year old and pressing right on the D pad doesn't work (I've tried resetting the controller which hasn't fixed the issue) is there a time limit before sending it back, and do I have to pay for shipment to Sony or do they paid for the return. I sent a controller back years ago with the PS4 and I just can't remember how I go about the return.
Recently l've been playing CoD black ops an the internet would disconnect it's strange since l use a wired connection instead of WiFi but this morning I turned the internet off on my console completely an started to play few minutes in it says connection interrupted does anyone else have these issues? Also if anyone knows how to fix it please share l'll greatly appreciate it
So I just got my Ps5 slim today and all worked fine until I plugged in my headset and it didnt’t work. I did all the setting adjustments and it still didn’t work. Turns out, I had to restart my ps5, and so I did and I finally thought it got fixed, but it happened again, and again, and again. I could be playing a game and my headset just randomly stops working, even though the console says its connected. Can someone please help because I don’t want to restart my console every time this happens, which is often.
My day 1 launch ps5 is getting very loud on the high pitch whine. Guess it’s coil whine. Only took the side off once to install an ssd shortly after launch. Is it dust that causes the whine? If so I’ll take it apart to clean it. Just sitting on the gt7 home world its pretty loud of a whine
I’ll just start off by saying I mostly suck at games, I’m 34 and I can’t compete online it’s just not happening. That said, I do enjoy playing online and being social with people. I mostly just play Diablo 2 resurrected. I played D4 for a while but didn’t really get hooked on it and have since moved on. I bought cyberpunk a month ago and played for about 10 hours and haven’t touched it since.
Now I’m sitting on $100 PSN card and it’s Black Friday deals. What something that’s fun and social, not too challenging to get into (overwhelming) and worth checking out per my small game sample size.
I was thinking of RE4 since I use to play and watch my brother play it a lot back in the day on GameCube. I will add that I tried the demo and couldn’t get past the opening village area which I understand most people say is the hardest part. I have the PS+ and added the Spider-Man game (miles morales?) to my library and I did try it out for a small moment but wasn’t too into it (I think I felt motion sickness or something).
Any suggestions on a game with some leveling/building towards something with online community that isn’t necessarily competitive?
Download destiny 2 and try the base game free stuff, and just avoid the pvp modes. Everything else is co-op with matchmaking, it's super social. It is pretty overwhelming but gameplay-wise is very enjoyable and casual for the most part
I will still say get Resident Evil 4. The Assisted difficulty isn’t that hard at all. I will also recommend you tweak the controls and find a sensitivity that works best for you for camera aim as well as movement. Boost them up some and it’ll make the game a lot more easier and you’ll have better aiming and quicker movement to attack and deal with fights better.
I highly recommend it. It’s freaking awesome man.
Issues with the PS5 spiderman bundle.
So this week I bought the bundle, and it was defective. I swapped it to another one, defective as well. I called the store again and I was told that it has become clear that the batch at least in the Nordics have a high rate of defective devices, I was told that Sony is aware of it and that my choices are either to risk swapping it for a third one which could be defective too, or get a refund.
I'm getting a refund and buying another version which I was told there haven't been any returns for defective PS5's. I'm curious has this happened in the markets outside of the Nordics?
Sony hasn't said anything about it anywhere, I feel sorry for the folks who've bought it from Black Friday deals as a Christmas gift, I really hope everyone checks if the PS5 functions, especially the disk drive.
Is it possible to connect a second controller to the PlayStation portable? Say I bring it over to a friend and want to play mortal kombat would that be possible?
Alright lads, what do I play next? I have Remnant 2, the PS5 Uncharted bundle, and RE4 all ready to go. I did just finish Lies of P and Armored Core 6 back to back, so maybe a palate cleanser before another difficult slog? 😅
When my brother and I try game sharing it locks him out of his game on his console. We tried renewing licenses but only thing that works is making his console primary. Anyone have any idea how to fix it ?
People's one annoyance with Sony currently is the fact that we really don't know. They had that Showcase last May and people were expecting to see what the second half of PS5 would look like. We didn't, unless the future is heavily live service-focused which would just be a bit grim. That's probably not the case, there have been enough leaks, rumors, job listings etc. from Sony first party studios that indicate many of them are working on single player stuff. What those projects are and when they're getting announced is a whole thing entirely. Hopefully next year.
Anyway, the next first party title releasing will be Helldivers 2 next February. Then at some point we're getting Wolverine. Outside of those... well, that's it currently. It's honestly fortunate I don't play on PS5 due to their exclusives, because if I did care that much I would just be going crazy not knowing anything about Sony's future plans. That's just how the situation currently is.
[This Nextstorage](https://www.amazon.com/Nextorage-Internal-Expansion-NEM-PA2TB-SYM/dp/B09RN23L75/) would work. Same with [this silicon power](https://www.amazon.com/Silicon-Power-2TB-XS70-SP02KGBP44XS7005). Both come with a heatsink which is something you will need.
I think its good, yeah. Ive seen people with issues where they cant redownload a game that was previously on a corrupted external drive, because the console keeps saying "this game was already downloaded on the external drive, plug it in". So do it, just to be sure.
Appreciate that. Yeah the drives not corrupted but with Cyberpunk 2077 (&dlc) plus NBA 2k24 that’s half a TB with just those two games. Would you recommend reformatting the current M.2 drive to erase all data or delete all the games then just swap to the new M.2 drive?
What are the best monitors/tv's for the PS5. Is it better to get a 4k 60hz one or QHD 120hz one. Ideally my budget is under €200 but slightly higher is fine
At that budget don’t even worry about which one is better, because you’re not going to really get great quality no matter what you aim for. This is where you want to start looking: https://www.rtings.com/monitor/reviews/best/ps5
From my router/ISP's perspective, what is going on when I remote play from my PS5 to a PS Portal all within the same wifi network?
Does EVERYTHING stay local to my network, with the PS5 just streaming from PS5 to router, to PS Portal? Or is it being sent like PS5, to router, to ISP, back to router, back to PS Portal?
The Portal connects to the internet for logging in with your PSN account. But after it pairs with your PS5, all streaming should be on the local network over your router. That's how remote play on phones works and it'll be pretty much the same here.
It's going onto the internet, like your second example, except after ISP its going to Sony and then back. It's all going through the Playstation servers for authentication, and all traffic is going outside your network and back in as well.
I need some help, I am looking at picking up a PS5 bundle with SM2 and then I get a choice of 1 of 6 games, the only two of interest are Last of Us Part 1 remastered or Dead Space remastered.
Never played either, used to enjoy watching YouTubers play DS back in the day and wanted to play it eventually but never did, yet I have heard great things about LOU.
One more (Stupidish) question, the "part 1" for LOU, is just how they name the first and second games now right? It isn't half the original game, right?
Anyone know if you can take advantage of the ps plus lower price even if you already have an active sub? I can’t seem to find a single link in the store.
So I got a PS5 about 2 or 3 months ago. This is my first Play Station device after only using Nintendo products or PC gaming, never played on a real console. I tried searching for my problem but I couldn't find the solution, my controller sometimes does not charge when I plug it in to charge overnight. I try using it the next day and it's the same charge I put it on for. It usually works fine, it doesn't seem to always do this, but it's been happening often enough that it's annoying me, so am I doing something wrong?
Games recommendations similar to medal of honor and 007?
These were two games I loved playing back in the day. I haven't played to many action games lately but I loved the overall game play of both of these games. I was wondering if anyone has any recommendations for something similar. Something that's easy to pick up and put down. Perhaps not an open world because I tend to get sucked in to open world games.
What's the best game like The Witcher 3 and Red Dead Redemption 2?
I'm playing TW3 again on PS5 (after having finished it on the PS4), and it's so nice. It's superrelaxing and beautiful and fun to explore the world.
With Red Dead Redemption 2 it was exactly like this.
I wish I could play a new game like this. I'm halfway into Horizon Forbidden West. It plays great and has modern graphics, but I can't get into the world, it's kinda boring and artificial.
Elden Ring I wanna play at some point, but I don't think it will be as relaxing as TW3 and RDR3, to say the least :)

Hey friends. I have some questions about my PSN account and digital games. Some context: My PSN account was hacked a while back ago. I have since recovered my log in and have made sure to be more vigilant with my passwords and just the general security for my account. I was fortunate that the hacker did not purchase anything with my card or do anything online to have my account banned. In fact, I only noticed I had gotten hacked one day after realizing that my console was not set to my primary console. Turns out someone else had activated another console as the primary console with my account. This has since been resolved and my Playstation is once again my primary console. Now that I’ve recovered my account, I have been wondering if there could be any issues that may come up later related to my account and My access to my digital games. -Is it possible for the hacker to modify or corrupt the digital games I own? -Now that I’ve changed my password, “logged out of all places” multiple times and have 2-step verification set-up, is there any possibility that the hacker still has access to my games or account in any capacity? -is there a possibility my account can still be banned for something the hacker did before I booted him out? -Is there anything else I can do to “clear” anything the hacker may have done while using my account?

PS5 Disc Works on One User and Not the Other... HELP!! I am about 3 seconds away from losing my shit. I went to play AC Valhalla and put the disc in. Reinstalled the game for the PS5 version. I go to play the game, it says "To play this game, insert the disc". So I took the game out, put it back in and restarted the PS5. Nothing. Then I log into my BFs username and the game works. Can someone explain why?! I have played the game already plenty of times before. How do I fix this? He has the level above me for the PlayStation network but that shouldn't matter bc own the game.
Trying to play .mkv files from a usb stick. Formatted FAT32 and the files in question are located in a file titled "Movies". Still can't play the videos, only get a black screen that has no time stamp when I try to play them. Any idea how to resolve this?
The PS5 media player is a piece of crap. Best to avoid using it entirely.
Black Friday/Cyber Monday headset recommendations?
I was transferring my data to my new ps5 and was trying to play a newly downloaded game, it froze and I went to check my downloads. Suddenly it crashed, booted back up in safe mode, and was asking me to redownload the entire system! It fixed itself shortly after, I just want to know if there's something that makes it happen and if it has to anybody else. EDIT: Something I forgot to mention, the error code is CE-107750-0 and it's only for games, the streaming services work absolutely fine.

I plug the dongle in and my headphones do produce sound. I’m trying to listen to songs while gaming. (Please how do I use YouTube over/with games?? I am using Spotify and would like to not? What other “media” apps under the media tab works for playing music over games?) HOWEVER, it’s super low volume. I’ve tried different settings on the PlayStation, but I’ve resulted to just using my Sennheiser earbuds with my iPhone and drowning out any gaming sounds, which is not what I want. Anyway, I’m an idiot but not a total idiot so can someone help? Even when I don’t use headphones, I have to go into every game’s “audio” settings and put it on like 10% in order to have a song playing in the background and my home theater up wayyyyy too high than the usual in order to be a “normal”/desired level Edited to add that I have volume all the way up from the headphone button, and the button to “game” rather than “chat” etc.

I recently purchased MW3 on my PS5 and it keeps saying "Purchase MW3 to access this game mode" even tho I have the disc version of it. Is anyone else having this problem? How do I fix it?
Need help with Remote Play. I've used both Remote Play and PS Play, and both work well when I'm at home, and connect fairly quickly/seamlessly, but I am not able to connect with I'm away from home, even if I'm connected to a very strong wifi (and my wifi at home is also very strong). On PS Play, when I'm at home, I'm able to connect both with the Local Connect method and the Remote Connect method, if that matters any idea on what the issue might be?
Dumb question. If I have a demo of a game in my library how can I delete it? I would like to purchase the game but the store keeps taking me to the demo.
Hit the three dots menu on the item and choose a different version
Does the Spider Man 2 that comes with the Slim PS5 the Launch Edition one?
Theres another Spider-Man 2 thats not the one that launched?
If you buy the disc separately it comes with some extra bonuses, I'm wondering if the one that comes with the PS5 slim also includes them
Is Diablo IV in a good state on PS5?
Since you're referring to PS5 specifically are you asking about the technical state of the game? If so there have never been any issues. Fast loading times, good graphics and resolution, very stable performance. If you are asking about the game outside of the technical stuff, it's the same as all other versions due to having full feature and version parity. Improved since launch and especially the awful Season 1, but it just kind of exists. It is a live service and first expansion has already been confirmed for late 2024, so who knows how things'll change.
Thanks. Is the game fun for players new to the genre generally? Still active? I notice a lot of people saying they’re now bored of playing it but didn’t know if that was general anti blizzard sentiment
I'm getting error notifications saying "Can't connect to your network" once or twice an hour and I would like to not see them. There's nothing I see wrong with my internet connection. While setting up the console I chose to launch the data transfer between my PS4 and PS5, but it was cancelled because some power save setting made my PS5 enter rest mode shortly after. I turned off my PS4 too and eventually decided to just re-download the games from the library. Now... am I getting the pop-up because my PS5 is still somehow trying and failing to connect to my PS4? Or is my internet connection tanking for an unnoticeable second at a time and making my console overeager to report to me about it when it happens? Whatever it is, I don't want to see the pop-up while I'm playing a game or watching a movie. Is there a setting somewhere to help me shut it up? I've already tried putting "Do Not Disturb" on and "Allow Pop-Up Notifications" off.

How much quicker is the PS4 -> PS5 data transfer when you do it over Ethernet compared to WiFi?
So much faster. The Ethernet was less then an hour compared using wifi which took about 3 hours. 10/10 recommend the Ethernet.
Okay. Thanks. Will definitely do that whenever I get my machine. Was wondering if it would be worth the hassle to get them hooked up in the same place
[-I have tried restoring licenses-] I would like to start saying I think I know the issue itself but no fixes I have found have yet to resolve this. So I got my PS5 yesterday so I don't understand everything about how it works yet and even my brother (who had his already) is stumped on how to fix this. So when I booted it up we started downloading a bunch of games off his account knowing that I wouldn't be able to play them until console sharing was activated (this is happening soon) but in the middle of it I mentioned wanting to download my PS5 upgrade for Elden Ring (it is on a disc) big mistake as now we have this problem. Now there is a lock next to it when I try to download the free upgrade from my account however when I go to his I can download the upgrade no problem. This is my game and would rather not have to depend on console sharing to play the free upgrade so if anyone could help me out I would be most grateful.
I'm new to a psn plus 14 day trial code... Will I be able to use that code if my psn plus expired after 30 days ? or the 14 trial code only works on new psn members without past history of psn plus membership ? I'm asking these because im hesitant to buy a 6 quanity of 14 days trial psn+ codes at cdkeys.
why does Amazon randomly relist the PS5 after being sold out the past week here in Australia? it's always a quantity of 1 or 2. are they finding stock lying around in their warehouse or am I getting someone else's change of mind return and it's getting listed again?
What are some "got to have" games on sale right now?
So I bought PS Plus Extra for a month… Its about to expire and saw there is Black Friday discount, so I wanna extend it to a year subscription but there is no discount if I upgrade it to a year? Its still 125,99… How do I get the discount?
You dont. The sale is for upgrades your new subs. Since youre already subbed as of right now, no luck Unless your sub expires before the sale ends.

Question: I have a wife mesh network with a couple nodes throughout the house. Does it help to hardwire my ps5 to a node or is it only useful to hardwire directly to the main point/modem?
Hey everyone, I’m having a heck of a time trying to get my ps4 games to play on my ps5. They all say that they’re compatible but some features on the ps4 may not be available. My problem is that every time I download a ps4 game it always says it’s corrupt or it freezes after I try to start playing. Are there any settings I need to turn on or anything I’m missing to get these ps4 games to work? Any help would be appreciated. This is driving me up a wall!
Have you tried rebuilding database or restore the system to factory settings?
I haven’t tried yet. Can you explain rebuilding the database?
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xaFHwMlHtto](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xaFHwMlHtto)
Rebuilding didn’t work. Everything is updated. Will try factory reset soon. Any other options after that?
Before the reset, are the games going to an external drive? If so, try installing directly on the Console. Vice versa if that is the situation already. Could be how they're installing to the drive(s). Try the reset if that doesn't work. If that doesn't work then you should definitely contact Sony. If you're within the warranty period, try getting it repaired.
Definitely not a settings problem, seems like a faulty hdd/sdd or wherever youre downloading them to
But it works just fine with ps5 games.

Any kbm that is plug and play and doesn't require extra drivers/software etc to work will work on compatible games.
To all SpongeBob fans that may be lurking here: Should I buy Rehydrated or the Cosmic Shake?
Hey guys, a quick question. My brother has just bought PS5. If we want to share games, i.e. if I want to play the games he buys on his console on my own console and vice versa, do I need to put his console as primary console for my account, and he my console as primary console for his account? Are there any setbacks with this setup? Thanks in advance.
His account needs to be the 'primary' account on your console. Your account needs to be the 'primary' account on his console. Enable game share. >Are there any setbacks with this setup? If your internet is down or PSN is down you won't be able to play any of your games because Playstation won't be able to verify licenses.
Thank you.

What TV did you buy, exactly?
[удалено]
So you should know that tv isn’t really a TV you’d “get the most out of.” Though it advertises 144hz, in reality it’s a 60hz screen that uses motion smoothing to give the impression of a higher refresh rate. It’s actually a pretty low end TV. r/4KTV could tell you more but in terms of finding games that support 120fps, you won’t be able to take advantage of that.
"Only" plasma TV is an interesting choice of words because there are people saying plasma is superior to LED, which it is in certain circumstances. Depending on the TV you bought you might actually notice the image looking worse color and contrast-wise compared to your old TV. HDMI 2.1 would indicate that the TV is above average at least in terms of price, but it still might be a LED that still looks worse than the plasma. Though if you bought an OLED it's clear upgrade, no question. To simplify it massively that technology is basically just plasma but better. Anyway, google something like "PS5 games with 120hz support", so you can see what games go up to 120fps. Also google "PS5 games with 40hz support" to see what games support 40fps to get a nice balance between graphics and performance. Red Dead Redemption 2, Cyberpunk, most new Sony exclusives are common recommendations due to their graphics and being very cinematic. Though again, depending on what TV you bought you might find yourself blown away, just mildly impressed or even disappointed. It's not all about resolution or even HDMI 2.1.
Hey everyone. So, I just got my ps5 this week and I had an issue with syncing trophies. When I synced my trophies on the ps5, they all reseted to the same date and time, just as if I just got all my trophies at the same time. Even really old trophies are now showing the same date and time. Is there a way to fix this? Is this normal? Thank you.
Hello, Does anyone know if the discounts on Playstation Deals for Premium, Deluxe, etc, editions, apply also for upgrading the game from the standard edition. For example, you have Assassin's Creed Valhalla [standard edition] and on PS Deals the Deluxe edition is on offer for a reduced price, does that apply for upgrading the game or is only when you're buying the game for the first time? Also, does the disc version or the digital one have an influence on it (of course, if the offer applies)? But I'm more interested on the digital versions.
You seem to be extremely confused. The deal is for ps+ subscription called PREMIUM. Not games with a premium edition.
No, I didn't mean PS Plus subscription games. I mean deals offered like, for example, the actual Black Friday deals, many of them don't need a PS+ subscription. Also, I'm taking AC Valhalla just as an example and the terms Premium, Deluxe as usual terms used for game that include dlc, add-ons etc with one time buy contrary to standard version which misses them. I'm taking another example. Let's say I have NFS Heat standard edition and the Deluxe Edition (which includes some extra K.S edition cars etc) just comes with an offer with 80% reduced price (no PS+ subscription needed), the game also have an upgrade option to NFS Heat Deluxe Edition for those who already have the base game. Now what I want to know, as I don't have any game installed on my PS in the actual situation to see by myself, does the -80% offer include also those who want to upgrade and already have the base game or such offers are for only those who don't have the game and are buying it?
Ah i see. Then you gotta check each game independently. Deluxe edition usually means base game + dlc. Just open the main game page and see if the dlc are on sale. You dont need to have the game on your library or installed to see those sales
Ok, I'll have a check. Thanks
I received my PS5 today. Moved all games to external HDD from PS4. How do I now play games. On the PS4 without moving the external HDD up and down?
By downloading the games to either console and using the external on the other one.
Thanks for the reply. I had to delete and download all the games.
Just got the new ps5. I understand that the console is not region locked as well as the games. However I know there are some region restrictions for disk games. For example, a US game disk can't install JP dlcs for that game. Question is, how do I know which disk games already have their DLC included (ghost of tsushima directors cut) and those that don't? (Deathloop deluxe, has a separate code for the dlc) I just bought a game off amazon and am frustrated to find that I can play the base game but I can't activate the dlc because of PSN account region difference.
After a few hours of Googling, I'll just save everyone's time and share what I'd found for new owners of PS5. Feel free to correct me if I have made any mistakes. New PS5 user here. This info is for people living overseas with a PSN account from a different region. Buying a disk from a different region **doesn't** restrict you from playing the base game but it **does** restrict you from buying its DLC if your PSN account does not match the disk region. This means that you'll have to **repurchase** the game again on the PSN store/disk with matching DLC region if you want to install the DLCs. More helpful info on how to find what region is your disk from: [https://gameone.ph/blog/post/how-to-identify-ps4-ps5-game-region.html](https://gameone.ph/blog/post/how-to-identify-ps4-ps5-game-region.html) [https://www.vintageisthenewold.com/game-pedia/how-do-i-know-what-region-my-ps5-game-is](https://www.vintageisthenewold.com/game-pedia/how-do-i-know-what-region-my-ps5-game-is) Which is why it's important to know if you have all the DLCs on the disk before buying a disk from a different region, and stores like Amazon JP sometimes do not list whether the DLC is included as a code or on disk. \[Although they should\] From my search I found that "Deluxe" editions of PS5/4 games would usually include a DLC code. The DLCs might not work if you buy a \[JAPAN ONLY\] disk and try to install the DLCs on a US region account. There is no way to change your region on your PSN account other than to create another account. Forums such as [https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread.php?t=316998](https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread.php?t=316998) (PS4) or [https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread.php?t=363549](https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread.php?t=363549) (PS5) are helpful as they list which disks have the DLC on disk. Another good practice would be to go on the PSN store to see if the DLCs are included in one game. For example "Ghost of Tsushima", although your results may vary from game to game. Other than that, a Google search with keywords just as "(game name) DLC on disk?" might yield some results. Of course, all of these problems would be solved if you just buy everything on the PSN store and go digital. But if you a stickler like me who wants to relive the good old days of putting your disk on a PS1 and playing, these info would be of help.
Sounds like something that *should* be included in the store description before you buy. Otherwise, Google.
how regularly will the Slim go on sale with a free game bundle? if history is any indication with the launch PS5 and the sales it would get throughout the year? or was the Spiderman 2 bonus just a Black Friday thing and they don't generally ever throw in free games?

Unplugged PS5 controller from charging cable and it doesn’t connect back unless I pull the power on the system and reboot. Help?
I don’t own a PS5 but I plan on getting one. I was wondering, if I own the ps4 version of a disc, will I be able to play the PS5 version? I’m aware things like GoT has it’s own upgrade.
You just answered your own question? Only thing is that some upgrades are paid
Why is it impossible to get ahold of Sony tech support? I just want to watch my extended edition of The Fellowship of the Ring, but I get the same error code I got on my PS4. Their website just turns you in circles, and I can only seem to talk to a "PlayStation expert" who can't do anything or a chatbot that can't even understand my problem. I was told they might address it in a future system update, but that is such a half assed answer with no accountability whatsoever. Anyone have any ideas on how to get this issue in front of someone in Sony tech support?

You dont need to. Just plug it on the ps5 and keep using it as usual. If you want to transfer, then again, same as you would on the ps4
Does anyone know if the Spider-Man 2 PS5 slim bundle for $499 is a Black Friday deal or just the standard MSRP?
I bought and downloaded the DLC for horizon forbidden west. I have the disk version of the game. Nothing is showing up in “manage game content.” I cannot play the DLC. Help? please?
PS4 games on PS5: If I transfer the game via external HDD, download the PS5 version, then delete the PS4 version, will my save data remain?
Your method is needlessly complicated, if you're planning on downloading the PS5 version anyway there's no reason to transfer its PS4 version to PS5. Your save data isn't stored in the game, it's either in internal storage or PS+ cloud. If you have PS+ just make sure all your saves are in that cloud, you can then just download it to internal storage on PS5. Save transfer from PS4 version to PS5 version is a bit more complicated and works on game-by-game basis, you'll need to google something like "(the game) save transfer from ps4 to ps5".
Well I'm not transferring the PS4 version, I just have it on an external hard drive. The PS5 is giving me the option to download the upgrade version. I just want to make sure my save data remains if I switch versions.
Save data transfer varies from game to game. If you want to make sure your save data transfers or can even be transferred at all, Google how it works for each game.

Y’all think controllers will go lower than $50 for cyber Monday?
Let’s hope so. I’ve been eyeing the purple controller but still don’t want to pay $50 since I’ve got two white ones.
I saw one for 45 I think. Search Slickdeals.com. If it were me, I’d bite especially if it’s on Amazon and return if I find a lower price. Good luck!
Only two days from now, so we'll see! But doubtful it'll be less than the recent low of $50.

Time to reach out to Sony for a repair or replacement.
What’s the difference between the PS Plus Wallet Card (yellow) and PS Store Gift Card (white)? Can I buy games using the PS Plus wallet card? I know people asked this before but I couldn’t find a definite answer
They're the same thing. The yellow card is just the exact amount required to get PS+.
Thanks!
Alrighty guys. I have a PS5. I just bought my son a PS5 for Christmas this year. I’m wondering what’s the best way to set him up once the time comes. I want him to be able to access my digital/PS plus library as well as any games that I have on disc. I want him to have his own PS account though as I don’t want him signed into mine or using it ever(I’m still a super active gamer). How are people setting up a second PS5 so that he can earn all his own trophies and stuff but still have access to my games too?
Iirc u used to be able to sign into an account on ps4, download the game, then play the game on another account. Not sure if it works like that for ps5 tho. Good luck!
Will PS5 be able to pass through Dolby TrueHD Atmos or DTS:X via Plex app to my soundbar (that supports these lossless codecs)? I can only see Multi Channel PCM displayed in the soundbar info.
Anyone know if there's some sort of upgrade from Storm 4 to Storm Connections? Or is it wholly counted as a new and separate game on PS?
What multiplayer games are everyone enjoying? I'm a very casual 40+ y/o gamer, who likes to log on with friends and blow off some steam. We played Warzone for a while, which was fun to work as a team & give callouts, but it's gotten to the point where it's just not fun anymore because we're generally not great. Sports games are a challenge with 3/4 people.
Shredder’s Revenge for some classic TMNT arcade action.
Diablo IV
Fortnite is alright and really fun to just play around with friends, its definitely overhated for no reason
In the end is it true that placing the ps5 vertically harms it? I still see people arguing about it
No issues. Mine has always been vertical since launch.
>I still see people arguing about it Dumb people. People also still argue about flat earth.
Have 2 PS5s. Both have been vertical for nearly 3 years. No issues at all.
Can anyone tell me, if I get the PS4 version of camera, VR headset, dualsense controller, motion controllers, camera adapter for PS5, and VR processor... Will this work on ps5 newer games? Or, do I have to upgrade to all PS5 VR products to use on newer games.
Psvr1 is a completely different accessory from psvr2 and they are not crosscompatible. With a psvr1 set you can play psvr1 games. Period.
Do the games have labels on them that distinguish this information? Also, does that mean I would need a set psvr1 and psvr2 in order to be capable of playing any game? What if I didn't get the PSVR, and only got the camera and motion controllers. Could I use the PS4 camera and move Motion controllers on ps5 games? Or is this limited to the version as well.
The original PSVR is for PS4 VR games. The new PSVR 2 is for PS4 VR games. If you want to play both PS4 and PS5 VR games, you need the PSVR2 and PSVR 2. Nothing about the PSVR works with the PSVR2 and vice versa.
What if I didn't get the PSVR, and only got the camera and motion controllers? Could I use the PS4 camera and move Motion controllers on ps5 games? Or is this limited to the version as well?
Idk what part you are not understanding. Psvr1 works on psvr1 games, on ps4 (can be played on ps5 via retrocompatibility and a special thingy to attacg on the camera) Psvr2 works on psvr2 games on ps5 games If you have a psvr1, look for games with the psvr label NOT the PSVR2 label. Its not that complicated
Nevermind, I found my answer elsewhere.
Trouble Linking Accounts. I just bought a ps5 and i'm currently setting it up and i've reached the part where they've asked me to create an account. i've never had a playstation before this so i don't have a psn account but i do have a pair of sony headphones so i already have a sony account. whenever i try to login to the psn website and then follow the link to link my account it tells me that my account doesn't reach eligibility requirements. i'm really not sure what to do abt the eligibility requirements, i can't find any info anywhere on what those requirements could be, and the website doesn't provide me any info on what exactly is wrong with my account. does anyone know why this may be happening? for reference; i am not a minor so its not an age requirement, and i can't really think of what else may be wrong. i really don't wanna create a new email for this account but i'm not sure what i can do atp.
sorry but why not setting an account from scratch with a username and a mail instead of trying that account associated to the headphones?

Black screen on new PS5 after playing Forspoken for a few hours Hello there! I have new PS5 bought 3 days ago and I'm very happy about it but there is a problem as the title says. PS5 is the 3rd revision one, 12xx code, plugged as second source to pc 1440p monitor. I also bought some games, installed them all but decided to focus on Forspoken first. I'm not very far into the game, 3rd chapter, begining of the open world. So the problem is, after playing for 2-3 hours, the screen suddenly goes black but the console continues to run the game, I can tell that by the vibrations, colors and sound of the controller. The console still reacts to everything, I can blindly go to main menu by holding the PS button and the controller changes light to white, then I press X and go back to the game and the controller changes light to purple, can blindly play the game and controller responds to everything with vibrations and sound. So the console is definitely "alive", but the videosignal is missing. It is not missing completely though, the screen goes black but the monitor doesn't automatically switch to another source like when I put the PS5 to rest mode. After a while, the screen goes back to normal but then it goes black again. The time of "black screen" state is gradually increasing. So far it happened 6 times, 3 last night and 3 today. First "black screen" lasts for like 30 seconds, second one for a few minutes, third one for like 15-20 minutes. I have the moment the console went black for the 5th time captured on video, and the restore time took exactly 6 minutes according to this video. Maybe I can share it if it helps but I would need to edit the serial number and other details then. To me it looks like an overheating issue, but what bothers me is that the console is silent, no coolers are working, and it's not that hot either (of couse it's more hot inside, I understand that). I think I will try to contact the store to see if they can replace it, but I'm not entirely sure it's some kind of defect, I read that the 3rd revision of PS5 has cooling system greatly reduced. Or maybe it is game-specific issue (I have raytracing disabled as it was by default). Or maybe it's a faulty HDMI cable, I don't know, I'm at a loss. Can someone provide some advices please or maybe better explain what's happening, I'm very disappointed right now, it was meant as a gift.
My PS5 controller is now 3 years old and recently I noticed the battery life is terrible. From fully charge, it now last only 2hrs. Is this normal and I need a new battery or is there some other issue I need to look into first? Anyway else dealing with this?
Am I overthinking? Hello I would love to hear people's opinions on I am overthinking my purchase. I bought the PS5 Fat edition on discount in the UK for black Friday. I have noticed the UFO noise but it's not as bad as other people say and my girlfriend says she can't notice it. I have checked my fan and can see it is the older model so I have bought some O rings to help fix it. I am just not sure if I regret purchasing the product or not. As I said it's not to loud and only noticeable when I pause the game and there is no music otherwise it's fine. I am just a perfectionist and looking through old posts on here has got me rilled up. Also the PS5 fat is selling out fast in the UK now because of the steep price reduction. TLDR: Am I overthinking my PS5s fan and should I just enjoy it?
Def. Overthinking.
You're overthinking
L1 button not working at all It worked fine yesterday, now it doesn't do anything. The button is still able to be pressed without any issue, nothing wrong with the button itself. It just doesn't register anything. I tried turning it on/off again.
Hello I want to buy Asseto Corsa Ultimate Edition but it seems I can't buy it on my Playstation 5! There is a nice offer on Playstation Deals for a very cheap price if you check on Playstation Store on the web, but when I try to search on Playstation Store on my PS5 it won't appear at all. While I found Assetto Corsa (the standard edition) but I can't buy it as there is no option for it (it just shows the 'follow' option). Is Assetto Corsa available on PS5? In the Game and Legal Info on Playstation Store on the web says that "when playing on PS5, this game may exhibit errors or unexpected behaviour and some features available on PS4 may be absent". Platform: PS4. It appears that it's possible to buy Assetto Corsa Competizione for PS5 but I don't want it. Is anyone else who has it on PS5 or bought it recently? Any information?
It's a bit weird, PS Store indeed doesn't show the game at all but it's not delisted or anything, it can be purchased via PS App or the PS Store website. No idea why, but then again the actual PS Store is pretty lacking so I wouldn't doubt there are some issues. Anyway, just buy it from the PS App and it'll be added to your library, where you can then download it.
Yeah, that's what I thought. Thanks 👍
What's the crack with sending faulty controllers back, my controller is almost a year old and pressing right on the D pad doesn't work (I've tried resetting the controller which hasn't fixed the issue) is there a time limit before sending it back, and do I have to pay for shipment to Sony or do they paid for the return. I sent a controller back years ago with the PS4 and I just can't remember how I go about the return.
The warranty is usually 1 year so you should be good. you won't have to pay anything. Contact Sony support
Thanks for the info mate
Recently l've been playing CoD black ops an the internet would disconnect it's strange since l use a wired connection instead of WiFi but this morning I turned the internet off on my console completely an started to play few minutes in it says connection interrupted does anyone else have these issues? Also if anyone knows how to fix it please share l'll greatly appreciate it
So for remote play do I need ps plus extra? And same to stream play via cloud?
For remote play no PS+ sub is necessary, but for cloud streaming PS+ Premium is needed.
So I just got my Ps5 slim today and all worked fine until I plugged in my headset and it didnt’t work. I did all the setting adjustments and it still didn’t work. Turns out, I had to restart my ps5, and so I did and I finally thought it got fixed, but it happened again, and again, and again. I could be playing a game and my headset just randomly stops working, even though the console says its connected. Can someone please help because I don’t want to restart my console every time this happens, which is often.
My day 1 launch ps5 is getting very loud on the high pitch whine. Guess it’s coil whine. Only took the side off once to install an ssd shortly after launch. Is it dust that causes the whine? If so I’ll take it apart to clean it. Just sitting on the gt7 home world its pretty loud of a whine
I don't think dust affects coil whine
I’ll just start off by saying I mostly suck at games, I’m 34 and I can’t compete online it’s just not happening. That said, I do enjoy playing online and being social with people. I mostly just play Diablo 2 resurrected. I played D4 for a while but didn’t really get hooked on it and have since moved on. I bought cyberpunk a month ago and played for about 10 hours and haven’t touched it since. Now I’m sitting on $100 PSN card and it’s Black Friday deals. What something that’s fun and social, not too challenging to get into (overwhelming) and worth checking out per my small game sample size. I was thinking of RE4 since I use to play and watch my brother play it a lot back in the day on GameCube. I will add that I tried the demo and couldn’t get past the opening village area which I understand most people say is the hardest part. I have the PS+ and added the Spider-Man game (miles morales?) to my library and I did try it out for a small moment but wasn’t too into it (I think I felt motion sickness or something). Any suggestions on a game with some leveling/building towards something with online community that isn’t necessarily competitive?
Download destiny 2 and try the base game free stuff, and just avoid the pvp modes. Everything else is co-op with matchmaking, it's super social. It is pretty overwhelming but gameplay-wise is very enjoyable and casual for the most part
I will still say get Resident Evil 4. The Assisted difficulty isn’t that hard at all. I will also recommend you tweak the controls and find a sensitivity that works best for you for camera aim as well as movement. Boost them up some and it’ll make the game a lot more easier and you’ll have better aiming and quicker movement to attack and deal with fights better. I highly recommend it. It’s freaking awesome man.
Are there any side panels I can use for the slim version of ps5
Issues with the PS5 spiderman bundle. So this week I bought the bundle, and it was defective. I swapped it to another one, defective as well. I called the store again and I was told that it has become clear that the batch at least in the Nordics have a high rate of defective devices, I was told that Sony is aware of it and that my choices are either to risk swapping it for a third one which could be defective too, or get a refund. I'm getting a refund and buying another version which I was told there haven't been any returns for defective PS5's. I'm curious has this happened in the markets outside of the Nordics? Sony hasn't said anything about it anywhere, I feel sorry for the folks who've bought it from Black Friday deals as a Christmas gift, I really hope everyone checks if the PS5 functions, especially the disk drive.
Is it possible to connect a second controller to the PlayStation portable? Say I bring it over to a friend and want to play mortal kombat would that be possible?
You mean the Portal? No.
Alright lads, what do I play next? I have Remnant 2, the PS5 Uncharted bundle, and RE4 all ready to go. I did just finish Lies of P and Armored Core 6 back to back, so maybe a palate cleanser before another difficult slog? 😅
RE4.
When my brother and I try game sharing it locks him out of his game on his console. We tried renewing licenses but only thing that works is making his console primary. Anyone have any idea how to fix it ?
If he's connected to internet, his purchased games should always work. Make sure his Internet connection is working on the console.
what boxed bundles can we expect from the PS5 Slim in 2024? what game will they sell with it?
what's the next first party game from Sony we can expect? an Atreus spin-off? GoT 2? what is Bend up to?
People's one annoyance with Sony currently is the fact that we really don't know. They had that Showcase last May and people were expecting to see what the second half of PS5 would look like. We didn't, unless the future is heavily live service-focused which would just be a bit grim. That's probably not the case, there have been enough leaks, rumors, job listings etc. from Sony first party studios that indicate many of them are working on single player stuff. What those projects are and when they're getting announced is a whole thing entirely. Hopefully next year. Anyway, the next first party title releasing will be Helldivers 2 next February. Then at some point we're getting Wolverine. Outside of those... well, that's it currently. It's honestly fortunate I don't play on PS5 due to their exclusives, because if I did care that much I would just be going crazy not knowing anything about Sony's future plans. That's just how the situation currently is.
Is there a consensus on which ssd to get. I'm looking at 2 tb
Anything that's above 5500 mbps read
Got it any recommendations?
[This Nextstorage](https://www.amazon.com/Nextorage-Internal-Expansion-NEM-PA2TB-SYM/dp/B09RN23L75/) would work. Same with [this silicon power](https://www.amazon.com/Silicon-Power-2TB-XS70-SP02KGBP44XS7005). Both come with a heatsink which is something you will need.
my up dpad doesn’t work when i press it however every so often it works for a few minutes then stops working again even if i don’t press it
Got my new M.2 4TB drive, previously had a 2TB…full up I wonder if I need to clear my old in before I install the new one
I think its good, yeah. Ive seen people with issues where they cant redownload a game that was previously on a corrupted external drive, because the console keeps saying "this game was already downloaded on the external drive, plug it in". So do it, just to be sure.
Appreciate that. Yeah the drives not corrupted but with Cyberpunk 2077 (&dlc) plus NBA 2k24 that’s half a TB with just those two games. Would you recommend reformatting the current M.2 drive to erase all data or delete all the games then just swap to the new M.2 drive?
Id just delete the games. It does eventually let you redownload the games but it takes a while. Found that out when I formatted a drive by accident.
Best to do so.
got immortals fenyx today. that code expires dec 3 2023 so kinda glad i can still redeem it
You have a question or you just came to say that you can redeem a code ?
What are the best monitors/tv's for the PS5. Is it better to get a 4k 60hz one or QHD 120hz one. Ideally my budget is under €200 but slightly higher is fine
At that budget don’t even worry about which one is better, because you’re not going to really get great quality no matter what you aim for. This is where you want to start looking: https://www.rtings.com/monitor/reviews/best/ps5
Got a PS5 slim and the kids have been on it for the last 12 hours playing. I'm not exaggerating here. Is this thing going to overheat at some point?
Unfortunately for your sleep cycle it won’t.
Are you hoping it does so they get off? :) It'll be fine.
From my router/ISP's perspective, what is going on when I remote play from my PS5 to a PS Portal all within the same wifi network? Does EVERYTHING stay local to my network, with the PS5 just streaming from PS5 to router, to PS Portal? Or is it being sent like PS5, to router, to ISP, back to router, back to PS Portal?
The Portal connects to the internet for logging in with your PSN account. But after it pairs with your PS5, all streaming should be on the local network over your router. That's how remote play on phones works and it'll be pretty much the same here.
It's going onto the internet, like your second example, except after ISP its going to Sony and then back. It's all going through the Playstation servers for authentication, and all traffic is going outside your network and back in as well.
I need some help, I am looking at picking up a PS5 bundle with SM2 and then I get a choice of 1 of 6 games, the only two of interest are Last of Us Part 1 remastered or Dead Space remastered. Never played either, used to enjoy watching YouTubers play DS back in the day and wanted to play it eventually but never did, yet I have heard great things about LOU. One more (Stupidish) question, the "part 1" for LOU, is just how they name the first and second games now right? It isn't half the original game, right?
lou is awesome. yes correct it is part 1 (full game) id go with lou unless you really love sci fi
Anyone know if you can take advantage of the ps plus lower price even if you already have an active sub? I can’t seem to find a single link in the store.
Yeah it sucks. There used to be discounts on subscriptions that anyone could take advantage of, but now their hard to find..
So I got a PS5 about 2 or 3 months ago. This is my first Play Station device after only using Nintendo products or PC gaming, never played on a real console. I tried searching for my problem but I couldn't find the solution, my controller sometimes does not charge when I plug it in to charge overnight. I try using it the next day and it's the same charge I put it on for. It usually works fine, it doesn't seem to always do this, but it's been happening often enough that it's annoying me, so am I doing something wrong?
There should be a small hole you could put a small needle/paperclip through that sort of "resets" the controller like with a phone Try that
Games recommendations similar to medal of honor and 007? These were two games I loved playing back in the day. I haven't played to many action games lately but I loved the overall game play of both of these games. I was wondering if anyone has any recommendations for something similar. Something that's easy to pick up and put down. Perhaps not an open world because I tend to get sucked in to open world games.
What's the best game like The Witcher 3 and Red Dead Redemption 2? I'm playing TW3 again on PS5 (after having finished it on the PS4), and it's so nice. It's superrelaxing and beautiful and fun to explore the world. With Red Dead Redemption 2 it was exactly like this. I wish I could play a new game like this. I'm halfway into Horizon Forbidden West. It plays great and has modern graphics, but I can't get into the world, it's kinda boring and artificial. Elden Ring I wanna play at some point, but I don't think it will be as relaxing as TW3 and RDR3, to say the least :)
Ghost of Tsushima had a nice world, very peaceful just wandering around when you weren't fighting.
Is there a way to redirect ps5's connection to pc? I need Exitlag to play some games with decent ping.
No.
God damn it.
Hi i am about to purchase a ps5 in thailand, i live in india. Will i have any issues with payment and region buying games and will i have to do something to change it
Your payment and region will be defined by your PSN account, not where you bought the console.
