Looking for info about M.2 SSD expansion drives? See the megathread.

Sometimes you just need help. But often times making a new post isn't needed. For the time being, around launch and perhaps in the future. We will use a single thread for helping each other out.

Before asking, we ask you to look at a few links. Some question can't be answered and only official PlayStation support can help you.

PlayStation Official

Community Help

Google and Reddit Search is also a great way to find an answer or get help. View all past help and questions threads here.

For all future help, tech support and more, we ask that you create new threads on r/PlayStation instead of here on r/PS5.

Can't decide what to play next? Is your favourite game underappreciated and more people need to play it? Need a new TV and not sure what to buy?

Game Discussion The Blood of Dawnwalker | Official Discussion Thread

Upvotes

14th-century Europe. Bloody conflicts sweep the lands, and the Black Death comes for the survivors. It's a moment of weakness - and that's all they needed. Vampires seize their opportunity to walk out of the shadows and claim what they've been denied for centuries: freedom, and the power that comes with it. Other creatures of the night follow their lead. Legends turn into reality, and history as we know it will never be the same.

You play as Coen, a young man turned into a Dawnwalker, forever treading the line between the world of day and the realm of night. Fight for your humanity or embrace the cursed powers to save your family. Whatever your choice, the question stands: is your soul worth the lives of those you love?

Make The Story Your Own - Experience and shape the plot the way you want. Embark on the quest to save your family, or swear revenge on your sire and destroy everyone standing in your way. Discover ancient secrets lurking in the valley. Rush in head first or risk taking time to prepare. Go alone or search for friends and forge unlikely alliances.

Day And Night - Experience two different gameplay loops, offering distinct abilities to choose from, mysteries to uncover, and varying ways to achieve your goals. Experiment with different approaches and discover how the world reacts to your actions.

Every Action Matters - Every action - and inaction - shapes the world around you. Your family’s days are numbered, and every time you take on a quest, time moves forward, compelling you closer to the end. Choose carefully whom to help and whom to leave behind. You will not have time for everyone. The world waits for no one. And neither does the villain.

Sword, Claws, And Rage - Defy gravity, become a brutal force of nature, and use your supernatural skills as a vampire. Or raise your sword, and employ powerful magic to take on opponents as a human. Experiment and adapt as your form changes during the day and night; each has its strengths and weaknesses.

Open World Brimming With Adventure - Venture through the hand-crafted open world and discover all it has to offer. Roam through the lush forests, the vast plains, the treacherous swamps, the steep mountaintops, and the medieval settlements. Explore forgotten ruins, find remnants of an ancient civilization, and uncover truths that should probably remain hidden.

Become The Dawnwalker - Experience the beginning of a brand-new saga built with love for the role-playing genre. Immerse yourself in a visually stunning world powered by the next-gen Unreal Engine 5.

Ps5 games that use dual sense controller to the max.

So I've been playing spider man 2 and i gotta say I freaking love the effects the controller gives. I want any more games that use these features like this. (EXCEPT ASTROBOT!!!) My brother has Ghost of yotei and he says this is the best game that uses it. So i just want to know about other games that have this.

Deals and Discounts I really dislike these new pricing practices on the PlayStation Store

Post image
Upvotes

It's one thing if my friend is offered a better deal than me but in this case they're charging me a premium on the listed price. How is this OK?

Edit: To be clear, when I’m not logged in it shows $13 and when I login to actually buy it say $23. Then if I open an incognito tab and go back it says $13 again. So they are purposely charging me another $10 above the listed sale price due to some metrics they collect or because I’m part of some test group. I hate it.

Discussion Which PS5 game deserved a limited edition DualSense but never got one?

Upvotes

Seeing the new GTA 6 controllers reminded me how many PS5 games had an amazing visual style but never got their own controller. Sony has released a lot of game themed DualSense designs this generation.

For me, Returnal would have been perfect.

Which game deserved one?
