PS Plus, online

You will need to be subscribed to PS Plus to be able to play online in most games, with some specific exceptions.

You have everything ready. You have purchased your console, you have opened the box and you have everything ready. The first step to be able to play online on PS5 is to have an account on PlayStation Network. If you don’t have it, we advise you to take a look at this tutorial that we prepare in FreeGameTips. Once you have the account, username and password, it’s time to assess whether you want to join PS Plus, the subscription service that not only offers free games every month, but also the possibility of experiencing the titles online. Although some products do not require it, in general it is an essential requirement.

    To play online you simply have to keep the subscription active. The system will detect it automatically and allow you to play without major problems. In addition to all that, service members have the opportunity to enjoy the PS Plus Collection, a catalog of PS4 hits (both from Sony and third-party companies) especially recommended for those who did not get the machine at the time.
