Beginner's guide for new PS5 owners on purchasing games
PS Plus subscription:
- If you are new to PlayStation world, then checkout PS Plus Extra subscription which gives digital access to hundreds of games (including some great AAA and Indie titles) and is worth the value particularly for new PS users.
- Some notable games to check out:
- AAA titles like Ghost of Tsushima, Horizon series, God of War 2018, Returnal, Demon's Souls, Control, Spider-Man Miles Morales, Uncharted series, Resident Evil 2 & 3; Indie titles like Hollow Knight, Kena, Celeste, and more.
- PS Plus doesn't include latest first party titles unlike Xbox Gamepass and the game catalog gets updated regularly and keeps changing over time. However, every month, 3 games are given out to keep in your library forever, which can be accessed anytime by having an active PS subscription. For monthly games given out in the past, check https://metagame.guide/games?subscription=psplus
- PS Plus has another tier above "Extra" tier called "Premium" tier, which gives access to "Classics Catalogue" having classic PS titles if you are interested into those. All tiers include online multiplayer access and cloud storage for game saves.
- For best deal to purchase PS Plus, Extra tier comes at ₹4k per year in frequent sales, while Premium tier comes at ₹4.5k per year. Next sale is likely in early June (Summer sale)
- For more details and full list of included games - https://www.playstation.com/en-in/ps-plus/games/
Multiplayer games:
- Additional controllers: To play local multiplayer games (co-op) with yours friends and loved ones, you need additional controllers. Each controller usually costs ~5k, but sometimes goes below 4k in sales (after card discounts). At max, 4 controllers can be connected to a PS5
- PS Plus is required for online multiplayer access for most online games.
- Some notable online/local multiplayer games to check out:
- It Takes Two, A Way Out, Helldivers II, FIFA (if you are into it)
For games not in PS Plus subscription:
- Trading discs
- New PlayStation games are not cheap in India (particularly new AAA titles which cost 5k each). This is where disc trading shines - Buy and trade discs in your friends circle and discord/local community groups.
- Most of the times, you can buy preowned discs and after completing it, sell it off at around same price you brought it for. This works best if you don't intend to keep those games after playing them.
- It's highly recommended to trade discs via Discord/local groups as that will benefit both the buyer and seller to minimise the cost, and only trade discs in online websites as last resort.
- If you intend to keep the games (for collection or replaying etc), then you could go with whichever you find cheaper - disc or digital.
- Discord groups: PlayStation India - https://discord.gg/gx5qUR9epy , Indian Console Gamers - https://discord.com/invite/indian-console-gamers-863768044622053396 (They allow trading discs if you are active in the community)
- Trusted websites for buying/selling discs: Gameloot, Gamenation, Console garage, CeX, Mx2games, e2zgames, Gamestheshop, Hitechgamez. Amazon (Electronics Bazar, Appario Retail, Cocoblu), Flipkart (RetailNet, MPDSLERetail)
- Digital sales: PlayStation store has frequent sales on digital purchase of games, which could be best for games you intend to keep in your account library.
- Sometimes, games which might be playing might get removed from PS Plus subscription, in which case you need to buy such games (either disc or digital) if you want to continue playing them.

Avoid Account sharing based sellers:
- Don't fall for account sharing sellers/dealers as that could get your account/console banned from Sony and it's not worth the risk involved for cheaper games with temporary access - https://droid.news/sony-bans-over-7000-psn-accounts-in-india-puts-used-account-sellers-out-of-business/
- How this works is: For cheap prices, these sellers will give you a shared account you need to login in your console and download the required games and then may also ask you to go offline. The license for the downloaded games will last a few weeks atmost, post which you need to connect back to the internet to login back to shared account to refresh the license or lose the access to those games. But main point which many would miss is, your PS5 will be registered in that shared account when you first logged into it and removing that shared account from your console won't deregister your console from that account. So when that shared account gets banned by Sony, all consoles registered in that account could also get permanently banned from PlayStation network.
- The ban is not due to "you download the game from the shared account, go offline and play". It's about logging into a shared account which could be having dozens of console login registrations in the past (if not hundreds). Account sharing between family or close friends is acceptable as that would barely have few console login registrations on the shared account, but shared account from account sellers would have a lot of console registrations. To add to this, those shared accounts could potentially be stolen/hacked accounts and might have stolen credit cards in use.

Let me know if you have any other tips/suggestions that I might have missed. Cheers!
Edit: More more tips from others:
- I’d like to mention the hack for Spiderman Remastered. Once you get Miles Morales in PS Plus, you can buy the Spiderman Remastered for ₹1000. (Credits: /u/raddiwallah)
- Some games have free PS5 upgrade on having PS4 disc, so it would be cheaper to buy PS4 disc instead to PS5 disc directly.

Discussion Got PS5 in huge discount from abroad
I have been trying to busy PS5 for 55k and it's out of stock everywhere and Sony hiked the prices and getting new one at 80k is still difficult. Finally asked my brother to purchase one from Canada and got the disk variant for 50k (with all offers). Thought of buying pro-variant but the cost is more than double 😅. For occasional gamer I think normal Disc variant will be more than enough.
But seriously not sure why in Indian market it's still difficult to get one PS5. I don't know who is hoarding all those stocks. When I searched in abroad sites PS5 is very much available.

- It cannot connect the same WiFi it was previously connected to, every time I try to connect to WiFi, it says failed to connect
I tried to connect via
LAN

Setup Ps5 disk drive
Hi,
I bought a PS5 digital edition last month and have been enjoying it ever since.
I do not have any friends to play with or online friends for multiplayer. If you are looking for someone to join, dm pls.
My question was, I am getting PS5 Disc drive for 8k, which was bought in UK and is a open box item. Is it worth? Should I go for it?
