I'm thinking of buying it because of its backward compatibility with PS4 games. I never had the PS4, but that console has a lot of RPG game titles to choose from. Just wondering how that compatibility works. Like, can I buy PS4 game disc and play it on PS5?
Seems that you can indeed use a PS4 game disc, and it seems that compatible PS4 digital games will be available when you sign in on your PS5. There are a few games that aren't compatible, though, according to Sony: Is PS5 backward compatible? Here's what you should know about playing PS4 games on the PS5 ... PS4 games that are not compatible with PS5 Sony has published a small list of PS4-only games that are not backward compatible with the PS5. They are: "DWVR" "Afro Samurai 2 Revenge of Kuma Volume One" "TT Isle of Man - Ride on the Edge 2" "Just Deal With It!" "Robinson: The Journey" "We Sing" "Hitman Go: Definitive Edition" "Shadwen" "Joe's Diner" ... https://www.businessinsider.com/is-ps5-backward-compatible PS5 is also subject to scalping right now. I personally would never want to support a scalper just to get a game console, so I would hold off on getting a PS5 until supply gets caught up with demand..
