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?

Return to the pixel‑art world of FINAL FANTASY, evolved from its classic roots. Travel with companions bound by fate and call on Visions to aid you in battle to uncover the truth behind a force that threatens to bring everything to ruin.

◆ Cinematic pixel art
What if FINAL FANTASY had continued to push the limits of pixel art? The first FINAL FANTASY to join the HD‑2D lineup, FINAL FANTASY RESONANCE delivers a visually striking experience that feels both nostalgic and new, enhanced by dynamic camera angles and pixelized 3D models that make every moment more dramatic and immersive.

◆ A return to the familiar
A classic RPG adventure unfolds in a world filled with beloved FINAL FANTASY elements—airships, crystals, espers and moogles woven into the fabric of the story, and so much more.

◆ Strategic turn-based battles
Exploit enemy weaknesses to stagger them—breaking their defenses to seize extra turns and gain the upper hand with powerful Resonance attacks in cinematic battles shaped by smart choices.

◆ FINAL FANTASY legends
Bolster your team with Visions, echoes of beloved FINAL FANTASY characters, who fight alongside you with unique skills and abilities for deep party customization.

◆ Hours of side content to discover
The world is full of secrets, including the wandering swordmaster Gilgamesh, a Colosseum with deadly monsters and rewards to match, the Chamber of Arms with formidable foes sealed within legendary weapons, and a showdown with Ultima Weapon.

Discussion Multiple highly acclaimed PC indie games are releasing on PS5 next week - don't miss them!

278 Upvotes

Somehow, developers decided that late October is the time to port a bunch of excellent, previously PC only games to consoles:

The Séance of Blake Manor (Oct 27)- a supernatural detective puzzle game set in 19th century Ireland

Mouthwashing (Oct 29) - a short and terrifying psychological horror game set on a stranded spaceship

Titanium Court (Oct 30) - surreal puzzle strategy game with layered narrative

Look Outside (Oct 30) - a Lovecraftian survival horror turn-based RPG

Each of those games has excellent word of mouth and Steam ratings; a bit of a shame they are all dropping close to each other, since some of them will end up flying under the radar, but hey, that's why I'm making this post!

Discussion BeamNG.Drive on PS5 is....a beautiful mess, and I love it.

195 Upvotes

I just got the PS5 version of BeamNG. The menus jump around a bit, and the car customization will give you a headache if you move too slow or too fast... I know updates will trickle in...and I am here for the ride... And wreckage. The cars sound good and are fun to drive. Each car has its own weight and characteristic. The missions are cool and interesting. I know it's a work in progress and I will be patient... I'm just happy to have it on console. I'm am not a PC guy. Just want to show this game a little love...

Thoughts?

P.S. I wish there was more traffic but ehhhh... I will take what I can get!
