StaceyPowers Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 I want to grab a deal on The Outer Worlds PS4 version, but the thing is, I want to play it on PS5. Has anyone here by any chance had a chance to try playing The Outer Worlds on PS5, and if so, how did it work out for you? Looking for experiences, not the generic “most games will run on PS5,” which I already know. Thanks!
killamch89 Posted November 24, 2020 Posted November 24, 2020 I'm not sure. Maybe you should look it up on YouTube although I've yet to see anything about it.
skyfire Posted November 25, 2020 Posted November 25, 2020 Not yet. But considering there are some who got the PS 5 tests, those folks could be into testing the game.

I did end up doing this today though (using YouTube) for a few other games; it is a good suggestion. I just bought like 5 PS4 games hoping they will run okay on PS5.

I think there are lists out there to check if your game is backwards compatible...

There's a list of games that are not backwards compatible maintained by Sony, but last I checked, it is already missing items. According to them, "99%" of games are backwards compatible on PS5, so I don't think they're likely to bother with a complete list anytime soon. Regardless, at least TLOU II should run fine, and hopefully the others too 🙂

EA wouldn't dare try it as they're already feeling the heat from plenty of entities.

As I said, the greedy triple A companies won't make their most popular titles backwards compatible because they want to re-release these games and milk their consumers. We should expect the very worst when it comes to their practices...
