Here’s a few from my library
As of right now,there’s a small list of gameson Sony’s “PS4-only” backward compatibility list for the PlayStation 5. But running through my library at launch, I uncovered a bit more.
Several aren’t that surprising (Battleborn), but a few of them are. Here are a few games from my library that currently give me a “playable on PS4” notice.
First up, here is the official list as of the time of publication:
Here are a few games that also don’t work on PS5:
Here’s a collective of unknowns and issues I ran into:
I’m also having trouble gettingDisintegrationto work, though some people are reporting that it does. The same goes forStar Wars Battlefront, where I’m seemingly asked to pick up the ultimate edition of the game. We’ve reached out to EA for clarification.
Dynasty Warriors 8 Xtreme Legendsdoes not show up as “PS4-only,” but when I click it, I can’t download it, and the subsequent page errors out (it states “can’t find what you’re looking for”). I’m also being asked to re-buy a few games, likeFarpoint,that I already own. Just to make sure I refreshed my licenses on my PS5, but it still gives me the same message. It should be noted that since the vast majority of my PSN collection is digital, all of these tests were done using the “library” UI on PS5.
This is still a tiny list even with my additions and download issues. When Sony said “the vast majority” of PS4 games would work, they were right. We’ve reached out to Sony for clarification on the matter, to see if these games will be updated; or if they need to be added to the list.
