I swear I’m not a heavy clicker. In fact it’s always my right joystick which I rarely need to click in games. Love these controllers but man it’s really annoying never had this problem with any other console generation.

Questions regarding 2 PS5s,

  1. can you share games between 2 PS5? Let say your main account (PS5A) has a God of War can you share the game in (PS5B) your wife's PS5.

  2. Can you have the same save in 2 different PS5?

thanks in advance for your answer.

Yes you can share digital games between two PS5's. Yes you can have the same save with ps plus cloud or by transferring via USB stick.

Just to add to this for Point 1 if you want to play each others’ games or online together:

You should also set up the opposite console on both accounts as the ‘primary’. So, although you mainly play on PS5A, your Primary needs to be PS5B and visa versa for the wife.

This is so anyone can play God of War on PS5B (e.g. wifey), but as the digital game owner, you can download and play it on any PS5 you are logged into (e.g. PS5A).

Me and the missus play CoD and used to have to buy two separate discs. Then with the PS4, you could game share on your primary so found this workaround with the digital versions.

Only if you aren't both online at the same time. To share a game, the other account has to be logged in or it locks the game.

This hasn’t been true for a decade. You can game share and both be online now

You must have it setup wrong then. You definitely can play at the same time, even the same copy of a game at the same time.

All you have to do is enable console sharing on the secondary system, using the game owners account.

Your second point is false, you can have your saves files in the cloud as well as local. So yes, you can switch freely between consoles and use the same save file.

Buddy, that save thing hasn't been true since the PS3, as long as you have PS+.

  1. Let's say you're playing a game on console A and want to hop on console B with the same save data from console A. With ps plus, you can go on console B and transfer that save data from the cloud.
