Those on the North American non-Japan list are those for which the Japanese version has not been released.
Sony’s explanation of PS5 (PS4) backward compatibility was initially described as “almost all 100 popular PS4 games work” and was later supplemented with “most of the 4000+ PS4 games work.” .. Also, in mid-September, there was an official statement that “99% will move”, and it seems that the specific name of the title has finally been confirmed this time.
It is explained that compatibility with previous versions of PS5 was achieved by installing the legacy (compatible) modes of PS4 and PS4 Pro on the main processor GPU itself. However, since the number of processor clocks has improved noticeably, it seems that it has been slow to officially announce it because it is necessary to check each title one by one.
Also, the PlayStation Blog has detailed information on how to play PS4 titles on PS5. First of all, regarding the download version, when you log into PlayStation Network, the library of games played on PS4 is automatically displayed in the menu and you can play compatible titles.
Also, download version games and save data can be transferred from PS4 main unit to PS5 main unit by cable or Wi-Fi. Also, if it is saved to an external USB storage connected to PS4, it can be migrated using that external storage, so there is no need to download the game body with a large amount of data again over the network. It seems.
And about the game of the disk version. This can be reproduced as is on drive models, but of course not on driveless digital editions. However, it says, “There are times when you can upgrade your PS4 game (package version / download version) to the download version for PS5.”
It was already announced that some SIE WWS titles can be upgraded from bundle to download version, but beyond that, measures such as UMD Passport that are taken when migrating from PSP to PS Vita without UMD drive have been implemented. You can say.
Finally, there is a mention of “streaming on PS5” as a side note.
One is that it is possible to “remote play PS4 on PS5”. In other words, you can transfer game data to PS5 and play without consuming storage. However, you can’t take advantage of the PS5’s momentum in streaming.
The other is that it also supports PS Now streaming. PS4 is not backward compatible with PS3 and earlier versions, and was supplemented by PlayStation Now, a flat-rate service that lets you play successive PS titles, but it appears that PS5 will carry it over as well.
Rival Xbox Series X is guaranteed backward compatibility from the first generation to Xbox One (within the range supported by Xbox One), but the desire to play old games on PS5 is limited to paying. It seems that it will come true.
