Create a second Fortnite account (PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Switch)


How to create a second account in Fortnite? What do you have to consider when creating a second account in Fortnite? One or two players who play the battle royale game from Epic Games may have been thinking about these questions in the past few weeks. The question arises mainly because some players like to play without skill-based matchmaking and do not want to be automatically assigned to players who match their skill level. To “escape” skill-based matchmaking, you can create a Smurf account, or more precisely a second account, and play with it. But how does that work? In this guide we will show you how to create a second account and play with it in just a few seconds.

Create a second account in Fortnite

If you play Fortnite on your PC, you can easily create a second account. All you have to do is create a second Epic Games account, start the Epic Games Launcher and log out. You can then log in with the second account and start playing directly with the second account.

  1. Create a new Epic Games account via the website (or log in via one of the social logins offered such as Steam or Facebook).
  2. Start the Epic Games Launcher, click on the profile in the top right and select “Log out”.
  3. Log in using the second account using the registration form and start Fortnite.

Second Fortnite account on PS4 or Xbox One?

If you play Fortnite on the PS4, PS5, Xbox One or Xbox Series or even Nintendo, you have to create another account on the console. So on the PS4 or PS5 you have to create another PSN account and re-register or select the other user when starting the console. You can then play Fortnite on the console with the second account. Since Fortnite is a free-to-play game, PS Plus or Xbox Live Gold is not required for the second account.

Transfer skins to the second account?

So far there is no way in Fortnite or the Epic Games Launcher to transfer purchases from one account to another account. Accordingly, purchased skins and other objects cannot be transferred to the second account. You may be able to transfer purchased content from one account to another via Support. If you want to do this, you should ask Epic Games support about this.

Dead Island 2 Cheats PS5, PS4 and Xbox?

Are there actually cheats in Dead Island 2 on the PS5 or Xbox Series? How can you cheat for infinite money and weapons or duplicate and clone weapons? One or two players of the new zombie slicer from Dambuster Studios, who bought the console version of the game, will probably be dealing with these questions in the last few days. The question arises especially if you have already played the predecessor in the form of Dead Island 1 and have already duplicated a weapon using glitches such as the Duplication Glitch. In this short guide we show what is possible regarding cheats in Dead Island 2 on the PS5 and Xbox Series.

Cheats for Dead Island 2 on PlayStation or Xbox?

The short answer to the question is, no, there are no cheats in Dead Island 2 on the PlayStation 5 or on the Xbox Series either. The developers have not integrated any classic cheat codes into the game that you can simply type in and activate. But as is often the case in games without “official cheats”, there are various ways in which you can cheat in Dead Island 2, namely through glitches. A glitch exploits a bug in the game and allows you to duplicate a weapon in the game and then sell it, i.e. use it as a money cheat.

Duplicate weapons cheat in Dead Island 2

Just a few days after the release, the first players discovered a glitch that allows you to duplicate weapons. Unfortunately, this is a co-op glitch which means you can only use it together with another player. A solo glitch for duplicating weapons or as a money cheat is currently not known.

To use the glitch you have to do the following:

  1. Start a co-op session with a friend. The player who wants to use the cheat must be the host of the co-op session.
  2. Go to any dealer together and the host must throw their weapons from the inventory/backpack onto the ground.
  3. Leave the inventory or backpack window open and the host must exit the game (no auto-save may be created). Quit the game completely and be invited back into the session by the other player.
  4. You then start the game again with a full inventory, while the weapons that were previously thrown on the ground continue to lie on the ground. You can now sell the weapons to the dealer and earn money very quickly.

By the way, the weapon duplication glitch described above can only ever be used by the host. It could well be that the developers at Dambuster Studios will sooner or later put a stop to the glitch and you will no longer be able to duplicate your weapons. If additional Dead Island 2 cheats for PS5, PS4, Xbox Series or Xbox One appear in the meantime, we will of course add them here.

Update: More glitches have now been found, shown in the video below (works on PC as well as PS5, PS4 and Xbox)

By the way, if you play Dead Island 2 on the PC, you can cheat for unlimited money using both the trainer and the cheat engine.

No matter the reason: you have the option of disconnecting your console from the internet or changing your online status, which will allow you to stay connected to the internet without your friends knowing.

Once you have done it, you will have several options, including ‘Online Status’.


When you select it you will be able to decide if you appear connected, disconnected or ‘Busy’; the latter serves to warn your friends not to bother you.

‘Busy’ is the PS5 version of ‘Do Not Disturb’ and it is quite useful, because it will notify your friends that you are using your console but it will prevent you from receiving notifications that could interrupt your game. It’s also fine for when you want to use your console for something other than gaming, for example watching a movie.

After selecting the option, the way your account appears to your friends will change and it will remain that way unless you change it again or turn off your console.

How to change your online status using the PS App

It is possible to change your status online using the PS App.

To do this you will have to enter Settings of the app for PlayStation mobile devices and choose ‘Personal information | Messages’ followed by ‘Online Status and Playing Now’.

From here you can decide who can see your online status, including what you are playing now, with the options Everyone, Friends of Friends or Only friends.

It is not as effective or fast as changing your online status using the PS5, but if you prefer to use the PS App here you have the option.

How to activate and configure Remote Play on PS5

The first thing you have to configure the Remote Play on PS5 is to make sure that the console settings allow you to use it remotely.

Once you’ve downloaded and installed the app, go to your PS5 to make sure your console settings allow Remote Play.

The first thing, you have to activate the Remote Play itself with these steps:

  • Go to ‘Settings’
  • Select ‘System’
  • Select ‘Remote Play’
  • Select ‘Activate Remote Play’ and make sure the option is activated
  • When you have Remote Play activated on your PS5 you will have to download the PS Remote Play app on the device where you want to use the PS5 remotely.

    If you are going to use it on PC or Mac, you have to download the app from the Remote Play page on the Sony website. If you are going to use the Remote Play on iPhone or Android, you will have to download the PS Remote Play app from the App Store or Google Play.

    When prompted, select your PS5 from the list of available consoles and wait for both devices to be paired. Importantly, you’ll need to be logged into the correct PlayStation Network account on the PS5 for the Remote Play option to appear.

    If all goes well, you will have remotely connected to your PS5!

    How to wake up Remote Play with PS5 sleep mode

    Although you can’t use Remote Play when the PS5 is offline, it can be used when the console is in sleep mode.

    If you want to activate this option, follow these steps on your PS5:

  • Select ‘System’
  • Select ‘Energy Saving’
  • Select ‘Functions available in standby mode’ and activate it
  • Select ‘Allow PS5 to be turned on from the internet’ and turn it on
  • This will allow you to use Remote Play on your PS5 from sleep mode, but remember, you can’t use Remote Play if your PS5 is completely off.

    PS5 Remote Play on PS4

    Days before the launch of the PS5, PS4 users woke up to a new app installed on their consoles: PS5 Remote Play.

    As the name suggests, this app allows you to play your PS5 on any PS4 console as long as the PS5 is correctly activated with Remote Play. You can use your DualShock 4 controller instead of the PS5 DualSense controller.

    As happens when you use Remote Play on other devices, you will have to follow the instructions to connect your PS5 remotely, but once you do, you will find yourself on the PS5 home screen.

    Importantly, when playing remotely via PS4 there are some small control changes.

    Pressing the PS button on the DualShock 4 will open a small exclusive Remote Play menu that will allow you to switch between the PS5 home screen or the Control Center, mute the microphone, return to the PS4 main page or end the Remote Play session .

    Have fun experimenting with Remote Play on PS5!

    How to add new accounts on PS5

    If you want to create a new account on your PS5, you have to select the option ‘Add User’. It is easy to access it in different ways:

    • From the user selection screen that appears when you turn on the console
    • The ‘Change User’ option from the home screen
    • From the Control Center, pressing the PS button
    • The ‘Users and Accounts’ submenu in the console settings

    Regardless of the method, the same screen will always appear with three options:

    • Get started – create a permanent account on your PS5
    • Login and Play – temporarily log into your PlayStation Network account on this console
    • Quick Play – anonymous temporary account

    To create a permanent user on PS5, you have to select the ‘Get Started’ option.

    You will have the option of logging into a PlayStation Network account, creating a new one, using the Playstation mobile app to log into your account by scanning a QR code, or creating an offline account.

    If you want to use a previous PlayStation Network account, you will have to log in with that account on PS5 and manage various functions, including Data Collection.

    If you want to create a new account, you can create a new user.

    If you choose to create an offline account, you can choose an icon and name so that you can start enjoying your PS5 right away.

    These instructions will also allow you to create an account for a minor: once you create the account, visit ‘Family and Parental Controls’ in the PS5 settings menu to manage parental controls.

    How to switch user on PS5

    There are two main ways to switch users when playing on PS5.

    The first is to visit the home screen and go up to the user account option in the upper right corner of the screen. You will know when you have arrived because your username will appear below.

    Interacting with this menu will open a submenu with various options, including ‘Change user.’


    Select ‘Change user’ to open a new menu with all users who have an account on this PS5.

    You can select with which user you want to be able to play and get access to files such as saved games on the console. You may have to enter your password if you have set one.

    The second way to change users is to access the Control Center by pressing the PS button and selecting the user account option.

    You will have to follow the same steps that we have indicated above.

    How to add guests and Quick Play on PS5

    There are two ways to add a guest account on your PS5: allow someone to temporarily access their PlayStation Network account on your console, or use Quick Play, which will create a temporary user on your PS5.

    These options will automatically delete any data that is created during your time on your console, so don’t worry because you won’t waste space on your console.

    Both can be found in the ‘Add User’ menu, which you can access in several ways:

    • From the user selection screen that appears when you turn on the console
    • The ‘Change User’ option from the home screen
    • From the Control Center, pressing the PS button
    • The ‘Users and Accounts’ submenu in the console settings

    In either case, after selecting ‘Add User’ you can choose between ‘Login and Play’ or ‘Quick Play.’

    Choosing ‘Login and Play’ will allow you to access your PlayStation Network account and, from that moment on, use the console as if it were your own, although the data will not be saved locally.

    Selecting ‘Quick Play’ will create a guest account on your PS5 that will have access to all the games and functionality of the console. If you have the PS5 version with a reader, you can play any game that you have a disc version of.

    This guest account will automatically disappear when you choose a new user or turn off the PS5.

    How to remove PS5 users

    To remove a user from your PS5, first go to the console settings, which you can easily find in the upper right corner of the home screen.

    Go down to ‘Users and Accounts’ and choose the option ‘Users’.

    A list of all the accounts that are linked to your PS5 will appear.

    Choose the account you want to delete and a small paper icon will appear.

    The PS5 will ask if you want to remove that user from the PS5.

    If you confirm it, this user will be deleted along with the saved games they have on the console.

    There is a problem with the price of the new PS5 Slim. Sony will charge European gamers up to 60% more for the same products


    Sony has followed its usual strategy by announcing a review of its latest major console and two new PlayStation 5 models will be available before the end of the year. Although the company has avoided referring to these as ‘PS5 Slim’, the truth is that this is how it promises to be known by players. At the end of the day, it is still a review with a stylized design and small size. The movement is very similar to what the company has carried out in previous generations. There are many very interesting details in this novelty, which once again offers us an alternative with a disc reader and another completely digital one. However, it is easy to find a reason to raise your eyebrows.

    European gamers pay more to enjoy PlayStation 5

    As rumors suggested, the digital model of this PlayStation 5 ‘Slim’ will arrive with the possibility of adding an external disk reader. “If you buy the PS5 Digital Edition, you can add the Ultra HD Blu-ray disc reader later, as it will be sold separately,” the company announces. The truth is that it is good news by offering even more options to the consumer. The idea also seems very well resolved in terms of design since the external reader can be integrated in an almost imperceptible way. However, there is a problem with the price. We are not referring to whether it is too expensive or well adjusted, but rather that European players will have to pay a very considerable extra.

    While the external drive reader will be sold at a price of $79.99 (75.3 euros) in the United States, European players will have to shell out 119.99 euros to get it. A extra cost close to 60% which becomes almost a luxury tax for consumers on the continent. It must be taken into account that this situation will affect all countries in the euro zone and, to a lesser extent, the United Kingdom. Although British consumers are better off than their neighbors, they will also pay 99.99 pounds (115.7 euros) for a total amount much higher than that of North American customers.

    The PS5 external reader is very well integrated into the design of the console.

    The price difference It will also affect new models of Playstation 5. Buyers in the United States, United Kingdom and Spain will pay almost the same when they try to get the digital model (the price is around 449.99 euros in the three regions). However, the same will not happen with the version that includes a reader. While in North America this edition will be available for $499.99 (470 euros) in our economic zone and the British territory will cost around 550 euros. Although the price difference is not so considerable in percentage terms, it is still another extra cost to take into account.

    This situation with respect to Sony products has been common throughout the current generation of consoles. Without going any further, the United States was spared from the increase in PlayStation 5 prices that took place last year. Also the increase in the price of exclusive games announced in 2020 focused on European players. In this sense, the conclusion is clear. Although the purchasing power on our continent is lower, purchasing the company’s products is much more expensive. The company defends it by referring to “the global economic context”but a 60% extra cost seems very difficult to understand.

    The vertical support of the new PlayStation 5 will be sold separately

    In the announcement of the console, Sony has also confirmed that the new model of the machine It will not include a support for vertical placement. This little gadget, which avoids placing the PS5 directly on its case, will be sold separately at a price of 29.99 euros ($29.99 in the United States). The console will include a horizontal support as standard, now perhaps easier to take advantage of since the size has been reduced by 30%.

    Story of Seasons A Wonderful Life cheats for Switch, PS5 or PC?


    Are there also cheats for the Nintendo Switch, PS5, Xbox Series or PC for the new Story of Seasons A Wonderful? Can you cheat yourself infinite money with a money cheat? One or the other player of the new SoS A Wonderful Life who has already spent a few hours in the game or who would like to try something out quickly and now needs money for it will perhaps deal with these questions.

    Are there cheats for Story of Seasons A Wonderful Life?

    As you already know from previous Story of Seasons parts, there are no official cheats in the new (old) Story of Seasons A Wonderful Life either. So the developers haven’t integrated any cheat codes into the game that you can use to cheat for infinite money or get infinite stamina, for example. However, if you play the game on the PC, you can now use trainers. On the net you can find both free and paid trainers with a money cheat, but also with cheats for stamina, no hunger, infinite energy, water fields automatically and fertilize or increase friendship with a certain villager to the maximum.

    In older parts there were some different glitches that could be used as money cheats. For example, a glitch is a duplication glitch that allows you to duplicate items. You can then sell the duplicated items to the dealer and use them as a kind of money cheat. So far, no glitch has been found in Story of Seasons A Wonderful Life on Switch, PS5, Xbox Series or PC. Should this change over time, we will add the information here.

    Trainer for SoS A Wonderful Life

    If you are looking for a trainer with a money cheat and other cheats for Story of Seasons A Wonderful Life, we recommend this one linked FLiNG trainer. As mentioned above, the trainer offers various cheats for money, stamina, energy, friendship and other useful features such as automatic watering and fertilizing of the crops. You can also set and increase the game speed to make the time in the game run out even faster.

    Update: The first cheat table for Story of Seasons A Wonderful Life is now available. You can use the cheat table via the free cheat engine and use it to cheat money, among other things.

    By the way, when downloading trainers, you should make sure that you download them from “trustworthy websites”. Unfortunately, there are always cases where malware or other adware can be found in the trainer.

    Digital Foundry tests Ghost of Tsushima’s 60 FPS on PS5

    Unsurprisingly, Ghost of Tsushima can be played at 60 FPS on PS5 (a performance boost over PS4 and PS4 Pro), but it is only now that Digital Foundry has had time to dwell on the changes the game goes through when played on the new console.

    The conclusion reached is that the increase to 60 FPS is a change made on a global scale, without having optimized the code programming.

    On PS5 there are practically no breaks in the frame-rate, but when they do – for example, when you activate photo mode – they always coincide with the same performance drops as PS4 and PS4 Pro.

    These simultaneous drops point to such a change made at the system level, without the Sucker Punch having revised the code to better take advantage of the greater power of the PS5. Still, the result is satisfactory and Digital Foundry even recommends that you play on PS5 if you have not yet had contact with the game.

    The game preserves the option to choose between a performance mode and a resolution mode, but playing on PS5, there is no difference in performance between the two modes. In resolution mode the game runs at 1600p, with no problem reaching the 60 FPS target most of the time.

    As there are cinematics that mix real time with pre-rendered elements, these will be the occasions when performance on PS5 is limited to 30 FPS. Check out the Digital Foundry video below.

    Install F1 23 mods on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series

    Are there already mods for F1 23? How can you install a mod in F1 23 and is it also possible on the console? A few days ago, the new F1 offshoot from Codemasters and Electronic Arts was released for PC and console. As every year, the new F1 23 is also very popular. Anyone who has already played some of the game’s predecessors may have downloaded and installed a mod from websites such as racedepartment.com. In addition to cheats, popular mods also include paintwork and skins, mods with which you can improve the AI, realistic graphics mods or the telemetry tool with which you can display lots of information about the car. The question arises, can the mods also be installed in F1 23?

    Install mods in F1 23

    The F1 22 mods are at least currently not directly compatible with F1 23. But that doesn’t mean that there aren’t already some modders who are adapting their mods to the new part. The first modifications for the game can already be found on the well-known mod websites such as the aforementioned racedepartment.com, but also on nexusmods.com. As in the previous versions, the installation is very easy in most cases, by simply downloading the mod and moving the contents of the .zip or .rar archive to the F1 23 installation directory.

    1. Mod as an archive of sites like racedepartment.com or nexusmods.com download and unzip the contents.
    2. Now move the content to the installation directory of F1 23 (close the game first). The installation directory can be displayed in Steam or Origin under Properties. From the Steam version, the path looks something like this: D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\F1 23
    3. Then start the game again and the mod should be installed.

    Some more complex mods sometimes require additional steps. For this reason it is always advisable to read the enclosed readme file, where the additional installation steps are often described.

    Mods on the PS5 or Xbox Series?

    Unfortunately, F1 23 does not yet offer official mod support. For this reason, you can’t install any modifications in the console version at the moment.

    Tip: Here’s how to play F1 23 with friends in split-screen mode.

    PS5 crashes? Marvel’s Spider-Man and rest mode just don’t get along

    Apparently the system software of PlayStation 5 is creating several problems for console owners. Some users have reported a conflict between the external SSDs and the software, causing the console database to be rebuilt. But now there is a new piece to this puzzle and it would have to do with Marvel’s Spider-Man.

    Journalist Jeff Gerstmann seems to have found the reason for this problem: apparently putting the PlayStation 5 into sleep mode with Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered running causes the console to crash. “It appears that putting a PS5 into rest mode while Spider-Man Remastered is running freezes the entire system, forcing the ‘external drive repair’ process when starting the backup. At least it was like that for me the few times I did it today“he writes in a tweet.

    For now, therefore, the universal advice is not to put the console in rest mode with the game still running. An excellent reminder waiting for a possible patch for all those who still do not have the console available.

    Seems like putting a PS5 into rest mode while Spider-Man Remastered is running crashes the whole system, forcing that “repair your external drive” process when you start back up. At least that’s how it’s been for me the few times I’ve done that today.

    F1 23 name change on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series


    Anyone who has bought the new F1 23 and has already played one or two rounds against friends or players from all over the world online may ask themselves how can the name be changed? Is there a setting in F1 23 to change the visible player name and if so where is it on the pc or console version?

    Customize player names in F1 23

    As in the predecessors, there is no option in F1 23 to set a “player name” in the game that is displayed to the other players. Instead, it simply uses the EA name, Steam name, PSN name, or Xbox Live name set on PC or console. This also means that if you want to change the visible player name in F1 23 multiplayer, you can only do this by changing the name on the respective platform. In Steam and in the EA client you can change the name relatively easily, as follows.

    Steam:

    1. Open the Steam client, click on the name in the upper right corner and “View my profile”.
    2. You can now change and save the profile name using the “Edit profile” button.

    EA Client:

    1. Open EA Client, click on the profile picture in the top right corner and then click on “Edit Profile”.
    2. You can now assign a new player name under “Change nickname”, which will then also be displayed in F1 23.

    If you play F1 23 on PS5 or PS4 and want to change the name to F1 23, you need to change the PSN name. The first name change is free, but subsequent name changes will incur charges on PlayStation Network. If you have an active PS Plus subscription, you will receive a 50 percent discount. The situation is similar on Xbox One and Xbox Series in Xbox Live.

    Tip: You can create your own league in F1 23 and play with friends.

    Palia for PS5 and PS4: when is it coming out?


    The open beta of the cozy MMO Palia started a few days ago. The game of Singularity 6, as expected, enjoys great popularity among players. So far, the open beta has only been available for the PC and one or the other player may be wondering when will Palia be released for the PlayStation? Is there already a release for the PS4 or PS5?

    When is Palia coming out for PS4 or PS4?

    The short answer to the question is that no implementation of Palia for the PS4 or PS5 is currently planned. As you can see from the official FAQ for the release of the Nintendo Switch version, the developers are currently concentrating on the implementation on the PC and the Nintendo Switch. The Nintendo Switch version of Palia is currently planned for the end of the year. Nevertheless, the FAQ also states that they are well aware of the demand from players on other platforms and that the release of the cozy MMO on other platforms is therefore not ruled out.

    As soon as there is more information about a release of Palia on the PS5 or PS4, we will update the information here. However, as already mentioned, one should not have the greatest hopes that an implementation on the PlayStation will follow in the near future. As a PS5 or PS4 owner, you will probably have to wait until the release of the Nintendo Switch version, which is due to appear at the end of the year.

    If you want to stay up to date on Palia, we recommend the official Twitter profile playPalia to follow and join the Discord server, where you will always be informed about all the announcements and innovations.

    Phil Spencer also has a PS5. But he had no choice but to buy a “forced pack” to access the new generation of PlayStation


    Avalanche of news about Xbox. The Verge media outlet has published a series of internal emails between company executives that allow us know your strategy in depth when it comes to launching its Xbox Series X and S, which is accompanied by future tactics and some curious anecdotes. Because, according to this email chain, even Phil Spencer has a PS5 with which to play regularly, but the Xbox boss had to buy a ‘bundle’ with Horizon: Forbidden West to access the new generation of PlayStation.

    But Spencer does not tell this experience to maintain contact with his colleagues, but rather it is an interesting fact to take into account about Sony’s strategy. In this sense, and as expected, Microsoft has been closely following in PlayStation’s footsteps with the promotion and launch of PS5 back in 2020, including its performance during component shortages: “Sony has been forcing a bundle with Horizon: Zero Dawn for an additional $50 since a time ago. I bought my PS5 two weeks ago and the only option available was the Horizon: Zero Dawn pack for $549.” Here it is important to mention that the head of Xbox is referring to Horizon: Forbidden West, as it is Aloy’s second adventure that It was included in the PS5 bundles.

    Xbox has been attentive to the launch of PS5 and its price increase

    It is normal for companies to study in detail any movement of their competitor, so it does not surprise us to know that Phil Spencer has been commenting with Liz Hamren (former head of platform and hardware engineering at Xbox) PS5 news compared to what is offered with Xbox Series X. All this, of course, based on information published by PlayStation in 2020, before the official launch of its console.

    In fact, the team admits the good work of PlayStation regarding aspects such as SSD performance on PS5, although much of the conversation is censored. And, as you can imagine, the PS5 price increase has also given a lot to talk about in the Xbox offices; Tim Stuart, CFO, notified Spencer and CFO Amy Hood of Sony’s decision after raising the cost of its next-generation console, highlighting that the team “I had anticipated this and it is moving quickly towards a plan, now that we’ve seen confirmation.

    After this, those from Redmond have remained attentive to all the PlayStation news regarding prices and Spencer has chosen to continue a strategy focused on consumer satisfaction. Ami Silverman, who was head of sales and marketing at Microsoft, responded to the Xbox boss by saying that “they are all good points, let’s be obsessed with the players here, since we are not out of the woods… We know that this may be the time to win fans vs. losing as a follower”

    These instructions allow you to create an account for your child, with the only difference that you will need to visit the ‘Family and Parental Controls’ submenu in the settings to activate settings.

    Switch PS5 users

    There are two ways to switch accounts while playing on your PlayStation 5.

    First and foremost, you can go to the home screen and go to the ‘Users’ option in the top right corner. Normally you will now see your username.

    Click on it and a submenu will open with a few options including ‘Switch User.’

    Selecting ‘Switch User’ will open a new menu with all users who currently have an account on this PS5.

    You can choose which user you want to play as and thus gain access to all files (including save files) that the account in question has on this console. Certain parts of the account may require you to enter a password.

    The second way to switch users is to press the PS button to activate the Control Center and select the User option.

    Then you follow the same steps as above

    Adding PS5 guests and Quick Play on PS5 explained

    There are two ways to add a guest account to your PS5. Either you let someone log in temporarily via their own PlayStation Network account on your console, or a temporary guest account is created on your PS5 via Quick Play.

    These options instantly delete any data created on your console during their playing time, so you don’t have to worry about impact on your storage capacity.

    You can find both options by selecting the ‘Add User’ option, which can be found in several ways:

    • Via the selection screen that appears when you activate the console
    • Via the ‘Switch User’ option on the basic screen
    • Via the Control Center that you activate via the PS button
    • The ‘Users and Accounts’ submenu in the console settings

    However you get there, after selecting ‘Add User’ you can choose from either ‘Sign In and Play’ or ‘Quick Play.’

    If you choose ‘Sign In and Play’, you can log in to your PlayStation Network account and use the console as if it were yours. All your data is also stored.

    If you select ‘Quick Play’, the console will automatically create a guest account that has access to all games and features downloaded to this console. If you have the physical version of the PS5, you can also play any physical disc.

    The guest account will automatically disappear when you select a new user or switch off the PS5.

    Remove PS5 users

    To delete a user from your PS5, you must first go to the console settings. You can find it by going to the top right corner of the basic screen.

    Then scroll to ‘Users and Accounts’ and select the option ‘Users.’

    This will show you a list of all the accounts present on or linked to your PS5.

    Now go to the account you want to delete and an icon with a trash can will appear. Select this.

    Before removing it, the console will ask if you want to remove this user from the PS5.

    If you confirm, the account will be deleted along with any saved data that may have been on the console.

    9 short PS5 games with a playing time of less than 8 hours

    If you have a PlayStation 5 at home, we can imagine that you prefer to play as many games as possible. But with everything that comes out for the console, you grow like crazy. That is not the case with these short PS5 games that you can complete very quickly.

    Astro’s Playroom (4 hours)

    Every PlayStation 5 owner has the first game in this list. Astro’s Playroom is pre-installed on every console. The game introduces you to your console in a playful way by introducing all the functions one by one. Think of the new haptic feedback from your DualSense controller and more.

    Astro then also takes you on an adventure through the history of PlayStation. You really see everything in the game, while you are out and about in beautiful worlds. And all that only takes 4 hours. After those four hours you have already reached the credits and you can start thinking about which game you will play next.

    The Pathless (6 hours)

    The next game is a mythical adventure from the makers of ABZÛ. The Pathless puts you in the shoes of an archer who finds an eagle in a vast forest. Soon you are working to save the world that has been corrupted by a dark force. By using your bow you can move at lightning speed and move acrobatically. In the meantime, you build a bond with your eagle who guides you through the game’s large open world.

    The corrupt spirits that reside in this world will try to stop you at all costs, but you in turn must free them. Will you be able to rid the world of all dark energy? The Pathless doesn’t give you a fixed route, but it will keep you busy for at least six hours.

    Spider-Man: Miles Morales (7.5 hours)

    An adventure that can be done very well on the PlayStation 5 is the content for Marvel’s Spider-Man. Miles Morales is a game in itself that builds on the story from Spider-Man. With a whole new Spider-Man at your fingertips, you’ll swing your way through crowded streets, shopping centers and more. The goal: discover where a supervillain is hiding who is making your New York unsafe.

    To stop the destructive force that threatens your city, you just have to learn to deal with your new powers. That doesn’t seem to be as easy as it seems, but in the 7.5 hours that the game lasts you will increasingly master your Spider-Man powers.

    Bugsnax (7.5 hours)

    A game you may have downloaded for free is Bugsnax. The game was completely free a while ago via the PS Plus update. In Bugsnax you explore an island as a journalist. When you arrive on Snaktooth Island, at the invitation of Elizabert Megafig, all that appears is that she has disappeared. So you look for the lady, but her followers must also be sought.

    As you search the island for Elizabert, you collect her loyal followers and discover what exactly the Bugsnax are. They are not just insects or fruit, but a mix of both. They also seem to be delicious, but you can discover that for yourself during your 7.5-hour adventure on the island.

    The Falconeer (5 hours)

    If you’re not into islands, but prefer to fly high in the sky, then The Falconeer is for you. The game puts you in control of your own bird and lets you battle enemies in spectacular aerial battles. The Great Ursee is the open world that has suffered for years under humanity and in the meantime all the betrayals and misconduct are slowly but surely being discredited. Yet there are groups that want to preserve the past, while you want to put an end to the poison that is ruining the world.

    A fierce battle that lasts at least 5 hours awaits you, during which you will be presented with various main and side missions and you will have to fight pirates, giant crabs and other threats. Luckily you have your lightning bolts ready!

    Greak: Memories of Azur (5 hours)

    Greak: Memories of Azur lets you get started with not one, but no fewer than three characters. Greak, Adara and Raydel are three children of the magical Courines race who navigate the land of Azur. Along the way they encounter all kinds of challenges in the form of platform action and puzzles. Their country has been invaded by the evil Urlag and that cannot happen easily. It is your task to use the unique powers of the three to build an airship. With this, you must ultimately flee the country before it is too late and you fall prey to the Urlag.

    You collect the parts of the airship while enjoying beautiful hand-drawn graphics and a soundtrack made by an entire orchestra. The compelling story about family, friendship and emotion will easily keep you busy for five hours.

    Alex Kidd In Miracle World DX (3 hours)

    A classic with a new look on this list is Alex Kidd in Miracle World DX. Hand-drawn art, a great soundtrack and classic gameplay will keep you busy for a few hours in this platformer. Your country is threatened by an evil king, but before you can deal with him you must navigate to his castle and deal with his generals.

    You don’t simply do this by fighting with them, but you have to beat them in a number of games of rock, paper, scissors. If you beat them, you eventually get to fight them and then navigate your way through Miracle World. In between you have to run, climb, sail, fly and motorbike to cross the country. As a bonus, you can also get started with the classic one. In principle you can reach the end within three hours, but believe us it actually takes about five hours before you see the credits.

    Evergate (5.5 hours)

    Another great game that you can complete in no time is Evergate. In this game you explore a beautiful, hand-drawn world as a soul named Ki. As you travel through the world, you discover mysterious powers, collect artifacts, collect and literally play with time. You have to move time forward or backward to progress in the game.

    In this way, Evergate creates cool puzzles that challenge your brain, while you enjoy the beautiful soundtrack. The moving story about two souls looking for each other strikes a chord more than once. Unfortunately, the game only lasts 5.5 hours.

    Spirit of the North (5.5 hours)

    Once again we have arrived at the last short PlayStation 5 game on this list, and we’ll take another look at it. Spirit of the North is a short game at 5.5 hours, but one that you must play. The game puts you in the shoes of a fox whose path crosses with a guardian of the Northern Lights. This spirit fox takes you on an adventure based on Scandinavian folklore.

    There is no dialogue in the game, so the visuals have to do their job. And believe us, they do. Solve all kinds of puzzles and explore your surroundings to discover everything about an ancient civilization and the story of the mountains and the red sky. The land in ruins tells a story of loss and reveals the nature of the spirit fox.

    Do you have a short PlayStation 5 game that is not on this list? Let us know in the comments below!

    These PS5 games have mouse keyboard options


    Now that we have entered the era of the Playstation 5, it is time to see which PS5 games we can play with a mouse and keyboard. The mouse keyboard option was available on the PS4, but it was not very optimal.

    Perhaps you have used it: the mouse and keyboard option for your PlayStation 4. This option is not possible with every game and the range of possible games on the PS4 is scarce. For example, without an adapter you couldn’t play Overwatch with a mouse and keyboard. Even if you had such an adapter, it did not always work for everyone.

    A few games where it was possible were War Thunder and Final Fantasy XIV. Why this mouse keyboard option is not possible for other games is because many game developers believe that keyboard and mouse players in console lobbies have an unfair advantage.

    Now it is of course time for the PlayStation 5. Can you also use a mouse keyboard setup on it? Well not for all games, but for a few this is possible! For example Warzone and War Thunder.

    Few PS5 mouse keyboard games

    It is very confusing which games you can play with mouse keyboard on the PS5. Mouse and Keyboard is possible for games such as Warzone, because they have the cross-play option. In the Warzone menu you can enable the mouse keyboard option before your game starts. You will then automatically be thrown into a PC pool. War Thunder also has this option, so you don’t need an adapter to connect a mouse and keyboard. Another game that can be played with a mouse keyboard on the PS5 is Planet Coaster.

    Now that many games are switching to crossplay, we can assume that more and more games will be added that can be played on mouse and keyboard. It is unclear which games these will be.

    Before you buy a game on your PS5 because you think it can be played with a mouse and keyboard, first check whether it really is. Most of the lists that Google presents you with include games for which you need an adapter costing 100 euros or perhaps more. With other games such as Rainbow Six Siege and The Division it may seem as if they can be played with a mouse keyboard, but unfortunately this is not true.

    Cyberpunk 2077 trophies will not transfer from the PS4 version to the PS5 version

    The good news yesterday afternoon was that the current-gen upgrade of Cyberpunk 2077 was finally ready after much delay and made available immediately. All current owners of the game can upgrade to the current-gen version for free, but this comes with a small snag.

    If you want to continue playing the game you will not be able to get all Trophies in the continuation. If you start the PS5 version, the game will not immediately unlock all already unlocked Trophies. So you will have to start over anyway to achieve everything.

    According to CD Projekt RED, this is due to the fact that the PS5 version is a different SKU, so it is not possible to transfer the Trophies. It is good news for the Trophy hunters, because they can go for the platinum again.

    “Unfortunately, as the next-gen version has a different SKU, PlayStation trophies obtained thanks to backward compatibility will not be transferred. You will need to meet the requirements once again to unlock them.”

    Lords of the Fallen 2023: Graphics comparison: Xbox Series X|S vs. PS5

    Image: CI Games

    A graphics comparison takes a closer look at Lords of the Fallen on Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5, but despite patches there are still problems.

    Digital Foundry tested the Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 versions of Lords of the Fallen. Even after the patches, the Xbox consoles are struggling with frame rate drops down to the single digits.

    The Xbox Series S Performance Mode has a 720p dynamic resolution between 768×432 – 1280×720. The frame rate in this mode usually fluctuates between 60 and 40 FPS. You experience a serious drop in resolution and FPS in the boss fight against Pieta. Here the resolution drops to the minimum of 432p while only 21 – 25 frames per second are achieved. In this case, the image quality during movement is often poor.

    In smaller, closed dungeons, the Xbox Series S can reach 60 FPS. One problem is the frame time “delivery”, which can lead to sudden drops below 10 FPS. Another patch is needed here.

    The Xbox Series In the tutorial and the first areas, the console maintains 60 FPS almost continuously, the Pieta boss fight and also the Skyrest Hub push the performance into the 40 FPS range.

    While overall performance is better than that of the Xbox Series S, there are still stutters and loss of performance. After about two hours of play, a bug occurred with a performance drop of up to 1 FPS, which could be resolved by restarting the game.

    The PlayStation 5, like the Xbox Series The quality is comparable to the Xbox Series X version. The PlayStation 5 scores points in that no bugs with a drop in performance into the single-digit FPS range were observed in the test, resulting in a more stable overall experience.

    In addition to the performance mode, there is a 30 FPS quality mode to choose from on every console. Both Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 can recreate a more convincing 4K image here, while the Xbox Series S improves with a 972p image. Shadows and reflections also have better quality. While Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 have little difference in image quality, Xbox Series S has to accept significant compromises. Here Digital Foundry writes from the “muddiest image quality“ that you have ever seen on the Xbox Series S console.

    The conclusion is that the patches so far have not been able to sufficiently address the technical difficulties of Lords of the Fallen.

    World of Tanks: The tanks are now rolling on PS5 and Xbox Series X / S

    • World of Tanks is now also playable on the next-gen consoles
    • This brings optimized graphics and faster loading times into play
    • Comparative screenshots show improved textures on the PS5 and Xbox Series X / S

    As Wargaming confirms, the free online action game World of Tanks Console is now also available for the PS5 and the Xbox Series X / S thanks to backward compatibility. The version for the two new platforms is now available for free download.

    The game does not have any major new features on the next-gen devices, but it runs at least faster and nicer, in better resolution, with higher frame rates and faster loading times. The action game now also manages 4K with 60fps and how the MMO looks optically on the new consoles, compared to before, you can see here in two screenshots:

    At the next-gen, this first impression shows at least more detailed textures, especially with regard to the plants in the area, and more realistic contrasts of light and shadow, especially on the metal of the vehicle. If you change the game platform in World of Tanks, your own achievements and purchases will also move.

    World of Tanks is team-based online multiplayer action with a focus on tank combat – as the name might suggest. You can compete against each other 15 against 15 in the huge, rolling machines. In addition to the next-gen, you can also play World of Tanks Console on PS4, PS4 Pro, Xbox One and Xbox One X.

    A somewhat unusual season is currently running in World of Tanks, which includes a somewhat weird crossover with Hot Wheels. Also in the “normal” World of Tanks, the PC version, the 3rd season is currently running again and that until December 8th, 2020 – with a corresponding Battle Pass.

    PS5 plagued by an annoying bug that forces the console to a factory reset

    In the last few hours, several users PlayStation 5 are complaining about an incredibly annoying bug, which would interfere with the ability to download new games on their next-gen console.

    The problem, reported by three different staff members of IGN, it is quite important: when a title is downloaded, there is the possibility of seeing it stuck in an error or marked as “Queued”, without any progress for hours and hours.

    Even checking the download menu, no title is reported: this means that, even if they want to, players cannot delete the title from the queue or try again, thus remaining blocked with “ghost” downloads with which they can no longer interact .

    This, at the time, happened both by attempting to download Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, with either Godfall, but it’s likely more of a system issue than a game itself.

    @Treyarch can’t download the PS5 version of Cold War. Simply says “queued for download”. Please help.

    The reports from users who are running into the same bug only increase: it is hoped that Sony can soon remedy the problem with a software update but, in the meantime, there are those who have found an unorthodox solution to this problem.

    To fix this bug, simply reset PlayStation 5 to factory settings. This will cause the loss of all data on consoles, so it’s a pretty brutal solution, but currently the only one available.

    The launch of PlayStation 5 was undoubtedly a success, considering the high sales numbers but, as often happens with the arrival of new hardware, it is easy to run into unexpected problems and bugs that will only be solved in the following weeks. We Europeans, fortunately, with the launch postponed to November 19, we have a week to collect all the reports and prepare in advance.

    Can I use PlayStation Portal away from home? We solve this and 15 other questions about the new PS5 portable device


    Is it a new PSVita? Perhaps the return of the mythical PSP? A bit of everything and nothing at the same time. PlayStation Portal, which became known a few months ago as Project Q, revealed its letters yesterday announcing price, Specifications, compatibilities and one nice list of features that has made many doubt. Is it a console itself or a console for the cloud? Today we are going to reveal all the details and clear 16 doubts that you may have

    What is PlayStation Portal?

    First you have to make the official presentations. For practical purposes, PS Portal is a portable device for streaming Official Japanese brand, nothing from secondary hardware or third-party companies, with one promise: play all PS5 games wherever you want. An extension of the portable console concept that does not reproduce the games natively.

    Price and release date of PS Portal

    The formerly known as Project Q seemed like it was going to avoid a launch this 2023, but nothing could be further from the truth. It will arrive at a slightly less competitive price than we might expect, €219.99 ($199.99), and will do so at some point in the last third of 2023.

    It will arrive at a price of 219.99 euros sometime in the last third of 2023

    Can I play in the cloud?

    No. PS Portal not a device game in the cloud. It’s not like Xbox’s Cloud Gaming or future PlayStation service is a console. PS Portal needs to be connected to the network and thanks to it will broadcast the games already installed on PS5.

    Can it be used to play away from home?

    YeahPlayStation Portal can be wear out of home, although it is a device designed entirely to work at home, be it on the sofa, the toilet or in your bed. A somewhat strange concept that is answered by connectivity and the need to have a PS5.

    Minimum and recommended Wi-Fi broadband

    As we have mentioned, it is mandatory to connect it to a Wi-Fi network to play, but not to the same one as your PS5 console. This is good news since Remote Play does have that obligation. PS Plus broadcasts the games over the network and you need to have an access point with these characteristics:

    • Minimum 5 Mbps broadband.
    • Recommended 15Mbps for correct use.

    PlayStation warns that while you can connect to public networks like a shopping center or a train, the quality will be diminished, although you already knew that.

    Do I need a PS5 to play? Does it need to be on?

    yes to both. Actually, the full name is PlayStation Portal Remote Player, and these last two words are key here. It is basically the Remote Play function of PS5 and PS4, but made a device. not a hardware completely independent and you need to have the games already installed on PS5 to play them over the Internet, as well as the PS5 on and connected to Wi-Fi or network cable.

    Do PS4 games work?

    Yes and no. PS Portal can’t connect to PS4 for obvious reasons, but those installed games on your PS5 that are for ps4 yes they can be retransmitted to the device.

    Can I install games on it? Do you have storage space?

    To both questions, no. Can’t install games,It does not have built-in storage or that we can expand with an SD card.

    Does it keep the features of DualSense?

    Yeah, although the details have not been specified. Both haptic vibrations Like the adaptive triggers are present in PS Portal. It’s almost like the PS5 controller has been expanded at its center with a screen. It works just like a normal DualSense.

    Do I need a subscription to PS Plus?

    No, using PlayStation Portal Remote Player does not require any PlayStation Plus membership. It’s just like using the Remote Play feature, which requires no additional payment of any kind. Of course, the online games yes They need a subscription to PS Plus like any other, but having an active membership on PS5 is enough.

    It is not a completely independent hardware and you need to have the games already installed on PS5

    Do you have Bluetooth?

    YeahPS Portal has bluetooth connection, although we do not know what type of connection it offers. Of course, as in all official devices, only official accessories via Bluetooth will work.

    Can I connect my headset to PS Portal?

    Regarding the connectivity of the helmets, we can connect headphones to your connection 3.5 jack wired, but the problems begin if we want to use them wirelessly. Although the console has a Bluetooth connection, we cannot connect the original PS5 Pulse 3D that was released in 2021 because they require the official PlayStation dongle that Can not connect to device.

    To use wireless audio you need the most recent Tap Elite and Tap Explore as these connect to the PS Portal using playstation link. These also connect to PS5 via dongle if we want.

    Is it compatible with PS VR and PS VR2?

    I wish, but No. It would be the most complete device, but we ran out of support. PS Portal it will not work with those games that require a VR helmet (PlayStation VR or PlayStation VR2) or any additional peripherals.

    Resolution, Display and FPS Specs

    Something more informative than the above. The PS Plus device is slightly larger in size than the Nintendo Switch (both the standard model, as well as Lite and OLED) or Steam Deck. This screen is LCD of 8 inches, 60hz and with a maximum resolution of 1080p. In addition, PS Plus is prepared to broadcast games to 60FPS Full HD, as long as the title gives the option.

    Can I connect it to another TV and use the PS Portal as a controller?

    No. That’s why we have our PS5. PlayStation Portal is the escape route if you have the console connected to the TV in the living room and someone else wants to use it. You can play while someone else uses the TV the console is connected to, but not broadcast the image to another screen.

    What is the battery life?

    Per se, we do not know, but we can make estimates. Basically, PlayStation claims that a normal DualSense has a life of 6 to 12 hours before charging. Although we know that this varies, and a lot, I propose an exercise: how long does your PS5 controller normally last? That’s the PS Portal battery. Simple. Of course, to load it, it has USB Type-C.

    Owners of a PlayStation 5 can get a new update today. Sony has released a new PS5 update, which brings many changes.

    As has been the case with many previous PS5 firmware updates, Sony is once again keeping the latest patch secret. According to the publisher, update 22.01-05.02.00 ensures that the ‘system performance of the PlayStation 5 is improved’. It is not clear what exactly the update changes.

    But the update that PS5 owners can now download is more than one patch, because the update is twofold. The other PS5 update, 22.01-05.00.00 brings many changes, as can be read in the patch notes.

    What does the PS5 update add?

    For example, Game Base is now divided into three different tabs, namely Friends, Parties and Messages. If you’re wondering what Parties are exactly, those are voice chats, because Sony has changed the name with the patch. With the update it is now also possible to start an open party or closed party, where only people you have invited can come to a closed party.

    Sony has also made finding and rejecting friends a bit easier. For example, you can search for friends and now find them under the Friends tab. A Decline button has now been added if you don’t want them as a friend in your list.

    To make the PlayStation 5 as accessible as possible, Sony has also added a number of options. For example, the screen reader has been given six new languages, including Dutch. In addition, you can now control your PS5 with your voice, if you enable the option, by first saying “Hey, PlayStation!” to call. That feature was tested earlier this year with certain users.
