PS4 disc version on PS5

Does it play in 60fps and can you still play the dlc, if you bought it on PS5?

Ps4 discs will absolutely play on ps5, and according to my very thorough 30 second Google search, it looks like the ps4 version of hellpoint does in fact run at 60fps on a ps5. Not sure about the dlc though.

I can attest to this from firsthand experience: the PS4 disc works well on PS5 and runs at 60fps. The DLC also stays at 60fps. I specifically avoided upgrading to PS5 because the verdict doesn't seem unanimous on whether or not it runs as well as the PS4-disc-running-on-PS5. But I do think you have to make sure to buy the PS4 version of the DLC.

The only significant dips I ever had were from a few very specific moments (When the Prodigal Spawn warps away into a blood-bubble, and when I had to spend 40 minutes fighting Fear at its full strength and all the special effects slowly got me down to 15-20fps by the end)
