PS5 ‘Console Sharing and Offline Play’ Setting is a Step in the Right Direction for PS5 Game Sharing



PlayStation consoles have had notoriously bad sharing options for households with multiple users and multiple consoles. Both my wife and I game regularly, each on our own consoles, but the hoops the PS4 made us jump through to share our game libraries with each other were tenuous at best.
To share your library on a PS4, players had to set that console as their ?Primary PS4,? which would let all other users on that specific console have access to their full library of games without needing to be logged into that users account. In order to fully access each other?s game libraries, we had to set each other?s PS4s as our ?Primary? console (her PS4 was my Primary, and mine was set as hers). When logged into our own profiles, we had access to our own games via the login, and the other person?s via the ?Primary? setting.
