Sony has finally revealed PS4 software that cannot be played due to the backward compatibility of PlayStation 5.The number is only two in the title for Japan, and 10 in the North American version.

The explanation of Sony's PS5 backward compatibility (PS4) was described as "almost all of the top 100 popular PS4 games move", and later supplemented as "the majority of 4000 or more PS4 games will move".。Furthermore, in mid -September, there was an official statement that "99 % will move", and this time the specific title name is finally confirmed.

It is explained that the backward compatibility of the PS5 was realized by installing the PS4 and PS4 PRO legacy (compatible) mode in the main processor GPU itself.However, since the number of clocks in the processor has been greatly improved, it is necessary to verify each one for each title, so it seems that it took time to officially announce it.

In addition, PlayStation Blog provides detailed information about how to play PS4 titles on PS5.First of all, for the download version, if you sign in to PlayStation Network, the game library played on PS4 will be automatically displayed on the menu, and you can play compatible titles.

In addition, the downloaded game and save data can be transferred from PS4 to the PS5 main unit, wired or Wi-Fi.Furthermore, if it is stored in an external USB storage connected to the PS4, it is possible to use the external storage to shift, so it does not have to be downloaded again over the Internet with a huge amount of data.It seems that.

And about the disk version game.This is a disk drive -equipped model, but you can play it as it is, but you can not play with a digital edition without a drive.However, it is said to be "something that can upgrade his PS4 game (package version / download version) to his PS5 download version."

It has already been announced that some SIE WWS titles can be upgraded from the package to the downloaded version, but measures such as UMD Passports taken when migrating from PSP to PS Vita without UMD drive beyond that.You may be.

Finally, the information around you may be referred to as "streaming on PS5".

One is that "PS4 remote play on PS5" is possible.In other words, you can play game data to PS5 and play without consuming storage.However, the ps5 boost cannot be used in streaming.

The other is that it also supports PS NOW streaming.PS4 has no backward compatibility with PS3 or earlier, and it has been supplemented by the flat -rate service PlayStation Now where successive PS titles can be played, but it is also handed over to PS5.

Rival Xbox Series X has promised backward compatibility from the first generation to Xbox One (within the range supported by Xbox One), but the desire to play old games on PS5 is limited to charging.It seems to be fulfilled.
