Important details have emerged that a Playstation 5 backward compatibility system or a gamepass-like system could be announced very soon. Although Sony has not officially announced it, some of the leaked images and some recent decisions taken by the company indicate that important work has been done on this issue. The lack of focus on this issue, especially in the PS5 announcement, was somewhat disappointing for the players. New leaks suggest the announcement could be made fairly soon.
Playstation 5 backward compatibility system may be coming soon
First of all, the compatibility system is one of the most behind Sony’s biggest rival Microsoft. As you know, Xbox users have the chance to play games on all consoles retroactively when they get a new console. So if you get an Xbox Series S or X today, you even get the chance to play the first Xbox games that come out.
There are two important factors that fuel these rumors for the Playstation 5. The first is that Sony cancels all sales and cards related to its Playstation Now service. The Playstation Now system, which is only available in some countries, allowed older games to be played over the cloud. The second detail is that some users come across sales of older games via PSN. There have also been games for PS3, such as Dead or Alive and Prince of Persia Two Thrones HD.
Sony has yet to make an official statement on the matter. However, he has long heard that the company is working on a Gamepass-like system. According to reports, this system can be announced with a special presentation in February.
