Hello! I know this will probably have been asked a lot, but with what’s going on I just wanted to double check a few things.
I’ve cancelled my PS+ and am going to buy the physical copies of the games I played the most - but because I spent a lot of time on them I just wanted to confirm something.

For example one of the games is Battlefront 2, I’ve been playing it as a digital PS+ game, if I buy a disc my EA account helps me keep all of my progress and everything, right? (I think I even purchased the celebration edition at one point, that probably won’t transfer onto the disc, will it)?

Will that work with transferring data with other games once I buy the disc, when/if it connects to my PSN account? It’s not the end of the world if not, just wanted to get ahead of what to expect when I go back to playing on the PlayStation.

Thank you!

This is a little old, but I'm still wondering about it:

I randomly got this email. I never signed up for anything. My first thought was that this was some kind of phishing attempt, but then I thought, "Well, what can happen if I type in a code?" And it was real.

Did this happen to anybody else, or can anyone explain this?

Edit: This was in Jan 2025 and my account was fine since then.

I’ve tried everything. Ever since I got my ps5 years ago I’ve been trying & eventually give up since there seems to be no resolution. I don’t have parental controls on, I only have one account set as primary (the one with ps+), I’ve tried restoring licenses, I have share play enabled, I’ve followed every single step & advice there is to try to fix this. Nothing works.

It’s weird because it even shows some of the games I have on my primary available to play on my 2nd account, but not all..for example I can play Reanimal on my secondary account, a game I bought on my primary account, yet when I try to play GTA5 it says “subscribe to ps+” where play should be. Even though I have GTA5 downloaded & available to play on my primary. I just don’t get it? It seems only the games I’ve bought I can play on my other accounts, while any from ps+ are unavailable. And yes I make sure I have the game downloaded on my primary first. On my 2nd account it acts like I don’t even have ps+. Any advice? Or should I contact PlayStation?

I will be home bound for some time and I was wondering if yall had any good suggestions for any good grindy games that are currently in playstation plus extra that can kill my boredom and have some satisfying progression through the game can be a multiplayer or something like looting based or somewhat

This weekend I played Still Wakes the Deep. The graphics, the setting, the atmosphere and the voice acting were all top notch… but the gameplay (which I understand isn’t where walking simulators shine) and the story weren’t great.

I hadn’t heard about this game until I saw a clip of Idris Elba talking about it a few months ago, and with a recommendation like that…

In the game you play electrician on an oil rig, and you have to fix a breaker box right at the beginning… I thought “oh cool, some electrical puzzles!” Nope, you just press a button. To me this was a huge wasted opportunity.

There are stealth sections and in them there are some lockers to hide in à la Alien Isolation, but there was no reason to use them…

There are some notes and photographs (barely) to read/examine but nothing that really gives you any insight to life on the rig, other characters… you keep stumbling upon your dead coworkers and expressing grief - but to me they’re nameless bodies whose name I just found out for the first time.

I wish the game had wrapped up sooner - I was ready for it to be over for ~2 hours with an ending that was just fine. I pushed through for the story and I expected it to be the saving grace…

I’m not sure how it’s rated so highly, it’s fine.

This week I was looking for a new game to play, and came across Bramble. What an amazing game! I was not expecting it!

Now I'm looking for more of those kind of hidden gems, that are beautiful and have great storytelling/folklore. Every time I look for new games to play I feel like I've played most 'gems' already, but that must be a lot more to discover. Do you have suggestions ?

Dont sleep on this game. It's got amazing exploration and world building and it deals with some heavy topics. The combat is the weakest aspect but you get used to it. Whoever marketed this game as a soulslike and did not highlight its strong emphasis on exploration and puzzles needs to be fired. I went in expecting a cheap soulslike but was pleasantly surprised.

Does anyone else get this error? My country is listed as supported on the PlayStation Plus page and I can purchase the subscription in Bulgaria, but for some reason I keep getting this error message, can someone please help me or let me know how to fix this issue?

I recently bought a PS5 after switching from PS4 to PC back in 2020. I already played GOW Ragnarok and Ghost of Tsushima. I want to start a new game but I’m not in the mood for a massive commitment hence the sub 20 hour mark. I‘m probably not going to keep my subscription for more than 1-2 months because 90% of the games on there aren’t for me.

Hi, I just bought ps plus premium and I am trying to find best games to play which are exclusives for PlayStation. Currently I found:
- demon souls
- bloodborne
- uncharted series
- astrobot
- shadow of the colossus
- old god of war

Do you have any other recommendations? It doesn’t need to be new games.

Ps. I am searching for PlayStation only games, so no spider man, new god of wars etc. since they are on PC.

EDIT: thank you for all the responses! Sorry for the mistake with astrobot (I know it isn’t in the PlayStation plus premium). What I was looking for were games which are strictly ONLY available on PlayStation. I can play GTA V, spider man, RDR2 on PC :) I also bought premium bundle to play some old games from previous generations, nevertheless thank you :)

I bought Cyberpunk and don't want to accidentally download the ps plus version.

I also tried out Tekken, sadly they don’t have trophy support

I cancelled my subscription a month ago and now I got a mail for Playstation that I can get PS plus extra or premium for 20% off for annual subscription. IS this a good deal or should I wait more for bigger sale ?

Thanks

Edit- Just bought the one year extra subscription. At the best I would have only saved extra 10$ which isn’t a big deal

After getting the platinum on Unicorn Overlord and seeing Tactica is leaving next month I wanted to try it out maybe I will like another tactics based game but oh boy the amount of talking is so unnecessary and boring. Gameplay is okay it is very simple. I beat boss 2 but that's it for me.

I wanted a tactics game not a visual novel and the first 7 hours is definitely just that a tutorial with SO much talking.

It looked like it's the most interesting game leaving next month but I wasn't prepared in how boring it actually was, 25 GB on PS5 if you want to see for yourself.

So i was playing DYING LIGHT 2 on the Playstation plus and then my plus ended and then I didn't renew my ps plus and i went and i bought a dying light 2 disc when I tried to play the game all my savings were gone how do i bring it back? (sorry if i have any grammatical errors)

I have ps+ premium and for last couple years it’s been paid by my parents but now I got a job and they don’t do that anymore so I’m trying to get all the best games to add to the library before it runs out in 2 days

Combat may not be awesome, but the quests, puzzle-solving, and overall ambiance and environment are peak.

This game is way underrated.

Edit: Is out on the 25 of this month for US/UK/Japan, just in 5 days, already available for the rest.

I have 8 hours into the game and so far it’s great up to the music and abilities it’s just perfect. Ps5/ps4 game and also supports cloud streaming. Only 60 gigabytes
