How to find the full list of native PS5 games on PlayStation Plus

While the PlayStation Plus service offers hundreds of games that are playable on PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 5 Digital Edition, not all of them are native to the console.

The PS5 version usually features better resolution, higher frame rates and other graphical enhancements when compared to the PS4 version running on a PlayStation 5 console. Not to mention that the newer generation release may take advantage of features such as 3D Audio, adaptive triggers and haptic feedback.

To see how you can find a full list of native PS5 games on the PlayStation Plus service, you can take a look at this tutorial from Seeking Tech.

1. To start off, make sure you go to the PlayStation Plus App, which you can do from the home screen menu of your PlayStation 5.

If you aren’t in the home screen, then you can get there quickly by pressing and holding the PS button on the DualSense controller.

2. After opening the PS Plus App, press the R1 button until you switch over to the Games tab.

3. The Games tab should show a list of all the games that are current on PlayStation Plus service, including titles from the following catalogs:

Monthly Games Catalog
The PlayStation Plus Collection
Game Catalog
Classics Catalog

Unfiltered, the list will show games that are native to the PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5. Currently, PlayStation 3 games can only be streamed on your PS5. On the other hand, you can download and stream PlayStation 4 games on the PS5 console. Last but not least, the native PlayStation 5 games can only be downloaded.

4. In order to filter the list, move the cursor to the left and then select the Sort and Filter option.

5. From the pop-up window, you then need to select Platform.

6. You then need to make sure that only the PS5 option is checked.

By doing so, the Games tab will now be filtered to only show games that have native PlayStation 5 versions.

7. To sort the list, you can also select the Sort By option from the aforementioned Sort and Filter menu. Afterwards, you can sort the PS5 games by the following methodologies:

Name (A to Z)
Name (Z to A)
Release Date (Old to New)
Release Date (New to Old)
Recently Added to PS Plus

8. If you want to download a native PlayStation 5 game from the listing, then you need to do the following:

First, make sure that you are subscribed to the appropriate PlayStation Plus plan.

Next, you need to select the game from the aforementioned listing.

On the game’s product page, select the Download button.

Some games offer both a PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 version on PS Plus. In these cases, you will be taken to the Downloads screen when you select the Download button. From there, make sure you select the Download PS5 Version button to download the native PS5 version instead of the PS4 version.

What to do if you can’t download PS1 or PSP games for free on PS5

by Kevin Chen

In some circumstances, you are able to download PS1 and PSP games at no additional downloads, as well as without being subscribed to PlayStation Plus Premium, on your PlayStation 5 or PlayStation 5 Digital Edition console.

When trying to download, however, you may see a price listing instead of the download button. You may also see the following error code when selecting the download button:

“WS-116483-3. Something went wrong.”

To see how you can potentially fix these issues, you can take a look at this troubleshooting article from Seeking Tech.

1. To start off, make sure that the game you are trying to download is actually an emulated PS1 or PSP games.

Some games, such as Chrono Cross, Final Fantasy VII, VIII and IX, are remastered releases; therefore, there aren’t eligible for the free download if you previously bought them as PSOne Classics.

Other titles, such as Tekken 2 and Resident Evil Director’s Cut, are exclusive to the PlayStation Plus Premium service. As a result, they can’t be played, even if you bought them previously, if you aren’t an active member of this plan.

2. You should also check your transaction history to see if you have your previous purchase linked to your PlayStation Network account.

In order to do so, turn on your PlayStation 5 and then head over to the PlayStation Store. On the front page of the shop, select the three dots icon. You then need to select Transaction History in the small window.

Make sure you select the email that you used to previously purchase the game and then the date range. If you can’t find the PS1 or PSP game you bought in the past, then try using a different email address or date range.

3. If you are able to locate the purchase from your transaction history, then you can try restoring the game licenses on your PlayStation Network account.

In order to do so, head over to the Settings menu of your PS5. From there, select Users and Accounts > Other > Restore Licenses > Restore.

5. Restarting your PS5 may also help as this action will refresh your console’s connection to the Internet as well as the PlayStation Network.

6. There may also be a server issue on Sony end that is stopping you from downloading the free PS1 or PSP game. In order to check, you can visit the PlayStation Network status webpage.

If some, or all, of the servers are experiencing issues, then we recommend waiting until they are fixed before you try downloading again.

7. You can also try power cycling your home network.

To do so, unplug the modem and router from the power outlets, wait for at least 2 minutes, and then plug them back in again.

Once you home network has gone back online again, turn on your PlayStation 5 or PlayStation 5 Digital Edition console, connect to the PlayStation Network and then test to see if you are able to download your PS1 or PSP game.

8. If none of the aforementioned solutions helped, then we recommend contacting the support team at PlayStation for additional support.

How to transfer saved data from cloud streaming to PS5

by Kevin Chen

If you have a PlayStation Plus Premium subscription, then you are able to play select games over cloud streaming. If you would like to transfer the save file from streaming to your PlayStation 5 or PlayStation 5 Digital Edition console so that you can resume where you left off, then you can take a look at this tutorial from Seeking Tech.

Before we start, it is important to note that cloud streaming currently does not support any PS5 games. Therefore, the save transfer will only work with PS4 titles.

Some games do offer cross-save progression between the PS4 and PS5 versions, however. In that case, you should be able to transfer the saved data from cloud streaming to the PS4 version first and then transfer the same data from the PS4 version to the PS5 version of the game.

1. To start off, open the stream of any game.

2. Once the stream has target, open the streaming menu.

For this guide, we will be using the PlayStation 5 as a streaming device. So, to open the streaming menu, you need to press the PS button.

3. In the streaming menu, you need to select the Now Streaming card.

4. From the next screen, you then need to select the Manage Saved Data option.

5. You will be warned that the game will be closed. Here, you need to select OK to continue.

6. In the Application Saved Data Management screen, select Saved Data in Game Streaming Storage.

7. Next, you need to select Copy to Online Storage.

8. Select the game that you want to save files to be copied over.

9. Afterwards, you should be in the Copy to Online Storage menu. Here, you need to select the saved data to transfer and then the Copy option.

10. Once the copying process has been completed, you can exit out of the stream.

11. Now go to the home menu of your PlayStation 5. You can get there by pressing and holding the PS button on the controller.

12. Inside the home menu, move the cursor over to the PS4 game that you want to transfer the save files over to.

13. With the cursor on the game, press the Options button on your controller.

14. Next, you need to select Upload/Download Saved Data.

15. From the Upload/Download Saved Data menu, select Download.

16. In the small window, you can either select the Download All option to download all the save files or the Select and Download option to only download a specific file. If you choose the latter, then you will be brought over to a screen where you can select which save file to download.

17. If you have already had a save file from the same game on your console storage, then you will be asked if you want to overwrite it. Select Yes to continue.

18. Once the save file has been downloaded, you should be able to resume where you left off from cloud storage to your PS5.

19. If you would like to transfer the saved data from the PS4 version to the PS5 version in games that support cross-save or cross-progression, then the process varies on a game-by-game basis.

How to turn off audio description in Disney Plus PS5 App

by Kevin Chen

When watching a video from the official Disney Plus App on your PlayStation 5 or PlayStation 5 Digital Edition console, you may notice that there is a narrator describing the action in a scene. If you would like to disable this audio description feature, then you can take a look at this tutorial from Seeking Tech.

1. To start off, make sure you open the Disney Plus App on your PS5 if you haven’t done so yet.

To open this application, press and hold the PS button to bring up the home menu. If you aren’t already in the Media tab of the home menu, then you need to press the R1 button. From the Media tab, find and select Disney+.

2. Once you opened the streaming application on your gaming system, select a video that you want to disable the audio description for.

3. While the video is playing, you need to press the X button on the controller in order to pause it and bring up the media player menu.

4. In the media player menu, move down once and then to the right once. You should now be able to select Settings.

5. After selecting Settings, you should see a menu appear at the top of the screen. Make sure that you are in the Audio tab.

If you are in the Subtitles tab instead, then you need to move the cursor up and then to the left to get to the Audio section.

6. In the Audio tab, you need to select anything other than a language with “(Audio Description)” next to it.

For example, for English audio, you need to select “English” instead of “English (Audio Description)” in order to get rid of the narrator.

Keep in mind that the media player menu will automatically be closed after around 10 seconds of inactivity. Therefore, you should be quick in making the audio changes; otherwise, you have to open the media player menu again and then start over from there.

It is also important to note that, by disabling audio description for one video, the change will also be applied to all the other videos in this video streaming application on your PlayStation 5 or PlayStation 5 gaming console.

What to do if you can’t format USB drive for PS5

by Kevin Chen

You are able to use a USB external storage drive for your PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 5 Digital Edition console. If you decide to store game data on it, then you can play PS4 titles directly from the external HDD, HHD or SSD. You can also use this option as a cold storage for PS5 games.

Before using a USB drive, you may need to format for your PS5. When trying to do so, you may run into the following error message:

“Can’t format this USB drive as USB extended storage. Use a USB drive that satisfies the following conditions:

Supports Superspeed USB (or faster)
Capacity of 250 GB minimum and 8 TB maximum
Directly connected to your PS5”

To see how you can fix this issue, you can take a look at this troubleshooting guide from Seeking Tech.

1. For the first step, make sure that the USB connection of the external storage device is USB 3.0 or later. The USB bandwidth should be 5 Gbps or faster.

2. If you are sure that the USB connection of the external drive is compatible with the PS5, then you can try plugging it into one of the two USB ports located at the back of the console.

3. As stated in the error message, you need to directly connect the external drive to your PlayStation 5 console. Therefore, you should avoid using connecting it first to a USB hub or USB pass-through device before the gaming system.

4. If the USB drive requires its own power source, then you need to make sure that it is plugged into a power outlet and turned on.

5. Of course, you should make sure that the USB drive has a capacity between 250 GB to 8 TB. If it is smaller or larger, then it won’t be compatible with the PS5 as a USB extended storage device.

6. If possible, try to update the external drive as a new firmware may help improve the compatibility of the product with Sony’s gaming console.

To update, you need to connect the USB drive to a desktop or laptop. Afterwards, check the manufacture’s website to see if there are any new firmware versions and/or instructions for updating your storage.

7. While the external drive is connected to a desktop or laptop, you can also try formatting from there.

In order to do so on a Windows 10 operating system, for example, open the file explorer and then right click on the USB drive. In the pop-up menu, you then need to select the “Format..” option. In the next screen, make sure you select either exFAT or FAT32 as the file system and then select the Start option.

If none of the aforementioned steps helped with fixing the “can’t format this USB drive as USB extended storage” error, then the USB storage may not be compatible with the PlayStation 5. There is also a possibility that the external drive may be defective. In either of these cases, you can try using a different storage product to see if you can get that to work properly with your PS5.

What to do if auto play is not working on the Disney Plus PS5 App

by Kevin Chen

When watching videos from the Disney Plus App on your PlayStation 5 or PlayStation 5 Digitial Edition console, you may notice that the next video won’t automatically play. To see how you can fix this playback issue, you can take a look at this troubleshooting article from Seeking Tech.

Before we start, it is important to note that the auto play feature of the Disney Plus PS5 App won’t work on movies. Instead of an auto play screen that shows the next video on the playlist with a countdown clock, you will get a suggested video screen where you need to manually select the Play option.

If the auto play feature is not working when you are watching a series on the Disney Plus App on your PlayStation 5, then you can try doing the following:

1. For the first step, make sure that you have Autoplay enabled on your current profile. In order to do so on your PS5 console, you need to do the following:

Open the Disney+ App if you haven’t done so already.
In the “Who’s Watching?” screen after opening the video application, select the Edit Profiles option.
If you are somewhere else in the app, then you can press the circle button on your controller until the left column menu appears. From there, select Settings > Profiles > Edit Profiles.
After getting to the Edit Profiles screen, select the profile that you want to enable the auto play feature for.
Next, you need to make sure that the Autoplay setting is set to On.
Finally, select the Done option to confirm your choice.

After turning on this feature, test to see if it will work as intended.

2. If enabling Autoplay on your profile does not work, then you can try exiting out of the currently playing video by pressing the circle button and the start playing it again.

3. You can also try restarting the video streaming application by pressing and holding the PS button to bring up the home menu of your PS5. From there, move the cursor to the Disney+ icon and then press the Options button on your controller. In the pop-up window, select Close App.

After closing the application, open it again.

4. You can also try signing out and then signing back into your Disney Plus account.

In order to do so, press the circle button until you see the left column menu. You then need to select Settings from there. Finally, select the Log Out option.

Once you are logged out, log back into the same account and then test to see if the auto play feature is working correctly.

5. Restarting your PlayStation 5 may also help. To do so, press the PS button to open the quick menu of the console and then select the Power option at the bottom-side menu. You can then select the Restart PS5 option in the pop-up window.

PlayStation Plus Monthly Games vs. PS Plus Collection vs. Game Catalog vs. Classics Catalog

by Kevin Chen

When checking out the games from the PlayStation Plus service, you may notice that there are many categories as you will be able to find titles from Monthly Games, PlayStation Plus Collection, Game Catalog and Classics Catalog.

To see what the differences are between these catalogs, you can take a look at this comparison guide at Seeking Tech.

Monthly Games vs. PS Plus Collection vs. Game Catalog vs. Classics Catalog Comparison Chart

You can find our comparison table for these four PlayStation Plus catalogs below:

	Monthly Games	The PlayStation Plus Collection	Game Catalog	Classics Catalog

Subscription Tiers

When it comes to subscription tiers, both the Monthly Games and PlayStation Plus Collection lists are available on all four current PlayStation Plus tiers. Keep in mind that the PS Plus Collection catalog is only for those who have a PlayStation 5 or PlayStation 5 Digital Edition console as you won’t be able to add these to your library from your PlayStation 4 or PlayStation 4 Pro system.

For the Game Catalog, you will need to subscribe to the PS Plus Extra, Deluxe or Premium tier of this service.

If you want access to the Classics Catalog, then you need to be an active member of PlayStation Plus Deluxe or PlayStation Plus Premium.

Refresh Date

Monthly Games are refreshed at a monthly basis as it usually occurs on the first Tuesday of the month.

The PlayStation Plus Collection does not get refreshed as it has remained mostly the same since the launch of the PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 5 Digital Edition system. The only change is the removal of the PS4 version of Persona 5.

The Game Catalog and Classics Catalog do get monthly refreshes that usually occur on the second or third Tuesday of the month.

Online DRM Requirement

The Monthly Games and PlayStation Plus Collection do not have any online DRM requirements as you will be able to play these titles offline.

For the Game Catalog and Classics Catalog, you will need to log into the PlayStation Network account that you use to redeemed these titles once every seven days to be able to play these games offline.

When you will lose access?

As long as you added the titles to your library, you won’t lose any access to the titles you redeemed from the Monthly Games and PS Plus Collection catalog if you remained an active member to any of the PlayStation Plus tier.

For the Game Catalog, you must stay subscribed to either PlayStation Plus Extra, Deluxe or Premium. If the game ends up leaving this catalog, however, then you won’t be able to play it even if you remain a member.

With the Classics Catalog, you need to remain a member or PlayStation Plus Deluxe or PlayStation Plus Premium. With that said, once a game has been removed from this category, then you won’t be able to play it again even if you have the right subscription.
