If you want to Gameshare on PS5, then you’re in luck — even though the console doesn’t use the same terminology, this old PS4 feature has made a return, and it’s now easier than ever to share games between PSN accounts on the console.
To enable Gamesharing you’ll need to go through a number of steps, and you’ll also need access to the PSN account details of the user you wish to Gameshare with. Aside from this, though, it’s very simple to start downloading games owned by another user.
