    Rules:

    1. Be Respectful to Others

    Keep it civil and do not personally attack other users. Treat others with respect. There is no place for harassment, abuse, hate speech, insults, threats, or trolling.

    2. Stay On-Topic

    Conversation must relate to PlayStation culture, hardware, games, or services in some way. Discussion of other brands or products is allowed only if there is a comparison or connection back to PlayStation.

    Additionally, steering conversations to become overly-political or no longer in the spirit of gaming is not allowed. Appendix A1 further details and clarifies moderation of what is "overly-political" content.

    3. No Spoilers

    Do not post unmarked spoilers or put any spoilers in a post title. Spoiler formatting is simple to use and works on most mobile devices as well.

    4. No Piracy

    Do not create posts or comments seeking to actively engage in piracy, hacking, jailbreaking, gamesharing, account sharing, or distribution of game images with other community members.

    5. No Solicitation

    Solicitation of transactions of any digital or physical products, goods, services, or accounts is not allowed. This includes buying, selling, trading, contests and giveaways, and begging.

    Sharing your PlayStation-themed original content (images, art, videos, etc.) is allowed, but posts strictly asking for account following or purchases of your content is not allowed.

    6. No Impersonating Sony / SIE

    Do not post claiming to be an employee of Sony or Sony Interactive Entertainment. If you wish to engage with this subreddit in an official manner on behalf of your company, please contact the Mod Team via Modmail.

    7. No low-effort content or comments

    Submissions must have enough substance to initiate a discussion or provide value to the community. Self-posts with only a title and very little or no text are not allowed. Comments must add meaningful value to a discussion (e.g. comments such as "I really want a new PSP", "I wish this was on PS4", or reaction GIFS will be removed). Before submitting or adding a comment ask yourself: "Does this add significant information or merit to the discussion?"

    8. Weekly Discussion Thread

    Any topics already covered in this Weekly Discussion Thread will be removed if posted separately at the moderators' discreation. This helps keep the subreddit organized and ensures everyone can participate in a central discussion. Please check here first before creating new posts about ongoing topics.

    9. Weekly Support/Purchase Thread

    All Tech Support and Purchase Recommendation questions should be posted in the dedicated Tech Support & Purchase Recommendations Megathread. Posts on these topics made separately will be removed at the moderators' discreation.

    10. Always link to the original source whenever possible

    If the original source is unavailable, you may link to an appropriate alternative. If a website copies or embeds content (like articles, videos, interviews, etc.) without adding substantial information, this is considered blogspam. However, if an alternative source offers meaningful analysis or commentary, it might be allowed, but prioritize linking the original source.

    For sources that redirect to other sources, link to the one that provides the most context and information. For instance, if a tweet links to a developer's blog post or announcement, link directly to the blog post or announcement itself.

    11. Submission Title Guidelines

    Use the original title from the source when possible. If the title of an article or video is unclear, overly complicated, or doesn't meet the guidelines below, you can modify it to improve clarity or remove sensationalized or editorialized language. You may also add relevant context, such as the author's name, spoilers, NSFW warnings, release dates, platforms, etc.

    Avoid using editorialized or sensationalized titles – Don't include phrases like "This deserves attention" or "Why isn't this being talked about?"

    Avoid inflammatory language – Titles should be civil and free from clearly inflammatory terms to keep discussions respectful.

    Avoid all-caps titles – Unless the original source title contains capital letters (e.g., some Japanese video game titles). Videos with excessive caps in the title may be removed at the moderators' discretion.

    Keep titles concise – If a link needs more context or details, consider creating a self-post to provide the additional information alongside the link.

    Titles must be in English – This rule has no exceptions for titles (see below for articles).

    Additional Rules Information.

    Spoiler Guide

    For simple spoilers, use the following formatting:

    **Spoiler** >!The La-Li-Lu-Le-Lo!?!<
    

    It will look like this:

    Spoiler The La-Li-Lu-Le-Lo!?

    To use labeled spoilers, you can put a prefix before the word spoiler to add context like the following example:

    **God of War Spoiler** >!BOY!!<
    

    It will look like this:

    God of War Spoiler BOY!

    Elden Ring - cannot play on this ps5

    For the past years I've been playing the ps4 version with a friend using a disc on my ps5. Not too long ago I bought the digital version so I could play the game when I'm at my partner on the digital version of the ps5. Lately I started playing the ps5 version at my place, I probably have the disc inserted. Now this screen greets me when I fire up the ps5 version at my partner's place. I'm sure that having bought the digital version should allow me to play both the ps4 and ps5 version without a disc. Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

    PlayStation classic

    Hey so I got my ps1 classic for 60 bucks not too bad and I saw instantly of course that the 20 selections weren’t great - to be fair I already had a Lot of fun with tekken 3.

    Anyway I know these usbs have been out for some time now so I ordered a pack from an AU seller via eBay will take like a month to come.

    My question/ concern is will plugging the usb corrupt the pre loaded stuff? And also I want to get the overdose pack now too so does it fuck up the console when you plug in a new usb or is quite simple plug n play pull out/switch out and the digital memory card saves?

    How cautious should I be when switching out multiple usb’s

    Any experiences or tips are very much appreciated!

    PS5 screen problems over night

    Hi, I know this is no tech support subreddit, but I don't know where to ask. I played yesterday and today I started my PS5 and can only see this screen. I already tried other HDMI Slots on my TV and another cable. I can hear sound but the screen is just flickering.

    Is it possible to transfer PS4 data to a PS5 across continents?

    So i rcently moved to Australia and was planning on maybe buying a PS5. However, I do not know if I will be able to transfer my PS4 data to the new console across continents (left the PS4 in EU).

    Will I be able to set up the account on the PS5 and all the data (game saves mostly)?

    If it's possible, how do I do it?

    Help me find a game

    My dad used to play it years ago and I need to remember what the game was, literally only remember parts of it, I’m pretty sure you play as a man with a kid and a wife, there is an explosion. And another part where he has to find the kids teddy above the washing machine. It was a ps game thanks

    How does Playstation games work?

    I haven't played Playstation for ... 2 decades. But I figured my mom, who's had a stroke, could use some Playstation to work on her motor skill

    But how does Playstation work these days? I'm thinking of games like crash bandicot and inside. Games like these. But how do I get the games? You buy a physical game like in the old days ? Or do you download it from a platform? And also, can a ps4 play ps2 and ps3 games ?

    who else played these gems back in the day?

    i never had the first game but i had TS2 and Future Perfect back in the mid-2000’s, and at that point they were some of my best FPS experiences since goldeneye. honestly i was so surprised to see them in the PS store (on sale, no less) and i’m even more excited to get back into it!

    still holding out hope for the next game in the series but at the same time not fully expecting to see it happen..

    What does this mean

    Recently got sonic x shadow on ps5, and I went to delete other games and I saw this. Sonic x shadow ps4? I haven't sxs ps5 disc, no ps4. Does this mean I can have a ps4 version? I'm curious as I have an old dusty ps4 pro that hasn't been used in years

    How do i reverse my left analog stick on my ps5?

    Hotline Miami has an achievement in which if you beat a level with a certain mask you get it. But said mask reverses your left analog stick in game, and it's hell trying to do the achievement. Is there any way to reverse your left analog stick to make it easier for me? (Eg. Left>right, right>left)

    Is anyone else unable to redeem vouchers?

    Any time I try to redeem a £20 PlayStation voucher it just says "the prepaid card could not be redeemed please try again later." I know it isn't expired, I know that it's been activated at the shop because I went back, I don't know what is wrong with it. It's been like that for 2 days now.
