PS4 to PS5 cross-saves
There are three alternatives when transitioning from PlayStation 4 to PlayStation 5. Heads up, if your intention is to pick up where you left off, you need to use the same PlayStation account:- The first method consists of connecting to your PlayStation account and uploading your saves.
- Alternatively, you can transfer your data via LAN cable or WiFi (wireless connection).
- Lastly, you are able to use a compatible external storage device where you can copy your saves and then transfer them to the PlayStation 5.
