Most players are aware of popular gaming consoles like PS5 and Xbox. It may be an intimidating process if you have not purchased any gaming console before. To make your buying simple, here is a parent guide to buying a Play Station 5.

WHERE TO BUY A PS5 ONLINE?
PS5 was released along with the PS5 Digital Edition in November previous year (2020). You can find the new PS5 at Amazon, Walmart, Target, Best Buy, and Game Stop. PS5 is priced at $499, and PS5 Digital Edition at $399.

FEATURES OF PS5 AND PS5 DIGITAL EDITION
The Standard PS5 has a disc drive that allows you to play 4K Blue-ray DVDs, and you can also use PS4 games through backward compatibility. PS5 comes at a higher price than the Digital Edition.

HOW AND WHERE TO SET UP YOUR PS5?
Setting up a PS 5 is very simple once you get your PS5 out of the box. Here are a few guides to make it easier. To set up PS5, you need to have a relatively large open area. You may require a large open area of dimensions 15.4 x 4.1 x 10.2 inches. You need some space to work with your PS5 as it can stand up vertically or lay down on its side horizontally. You should maintain a space of a couple of inches on either side of it and above when you place it on your entertainment center.

THE PROCESS OF TRANSFERRING DATA FROM PS5
PS5 allows you to transfer data over PS4 with a Wi-Fi connection or external hard drive. Here you can play your PS5 games from the console’s built-in SSD storage or another supported SSD. Therefore, you should play PS4 games on an external hard drive when playing them on PS5, so they don’t take up space. PS5 has around 667.2 GB of memory.

WHY SHOULD YOU EXPERIENCE THE PLAY STATION PLUS?
Play Station Plus is a premium subscription for one month, three-month, and 12-month. The subscribers have access to online multiplayer, free games, cloud storage, exclusive deals, Game help on PS5, and many more. A new feature, ‘Game Help’ on Play Station Plus, allows players to access and guides for specific parts of games. Another new feature, ‘Play Station Plus Collection’ on PS5, allows members to access a library of PS4 titles for free.

HOW TO UPGRADE YOUR PS5 STORAGE?
Sony has allowed the players to take off side panels and swap out the SSD internally. This feature was not available at the time of PS5 launching. However, now you can swap out the SSD and can use compatible SSDs to upgrade your storage. Here you can also connect external hard drives using a USB cable.

WHAT YOU SHOULD DO WHEN THE PS5 NETWORK IS DOWN?
The PlayStation network goes out just like your internet. When the pS5 network goes out, you mightn’t play any online multiplayer game, access your digital games, or online browsing.
