How Does The Game Sharing Feature Work on PS5?How to Enable Game Sharing on PS5? 

PlayStation 5 comes with a vast library whether you’re hunting for a game on the PlayStation Store or PlayStation Plus. With the rise of multiplayer video games, many players tend to lean towards random queueing which eventually leads to various communication issues among the team members. Using the Game Sharing feature, you can seamlessly share your games with your friends or family members and play together without any interruptions; no more solo queueing and raging at your teammates, coming from a personal experience. If you’re wondering how you can enable this feature to share your library, you can find everything you need to know about the Console Sharing feature in PlayStation 5.

The Game Sharing feature works with primary and secondary account properties. Turning on the Game Sharing feature on your PS5 shares the account’s library and PS Plus subscription with all users on the console; this is how a primary account works.

Unfortunately, you can’t use the Game Sharing feature on two PlayStation 5s. However, you can still simultaneously play games without any conflicting issues.

To enable Game Sharing and seamlessly play your shared library with friends, do the following: 

  • Go to Console Settings
  • Head into the User and Accounts section
  • Scroll down to ‘Other’
  • Press X on Console Sharing and Offline Play

If the Console Sharing feature is already enabled, the prompt will ask you to disable it. With this, you can enable game sharing on your PS5.
