PS4 External Hard Drives are Plug-and-Play on PS5, All Your Games Instantly Ready to Play



The PS5 is backwards compatible with the vast majority of your PS4 library, but just how easy is it to get those games over to the PS5" If you have an external hard drive, it?s extremely easy. Just unplug your PS4 external hard drive, plug it into the PS5, and all of your games will be available and ready to play without the need to format anything or wait for long transfers or downloads.
It?s a small feature, but one that really elevates the backwards compatibility function of the PS5. It?s a nearly seamless experience that doesn?t require jumping through any hoops. As long as your PSN account has a license for the game on the external hard drive, you can play it. A number of the games on my hard drive were redeemed on my wife?s account which I haven?t logged into the PS5 yet (in the interest of the early PS5 review agreements), but as soon as she?s able to create a profile and log into her PSN, our full library of PS4 games will be available to both of us.
