Can a PSN Account Be Sold or Transferred to a Buyer?


Recommended Posts

Games are digital And I spend Lot on them in last 5 months.

 

Can transfer my account with games when I sell my ps5 or is $500+ worth of games going to be stuck to me forever until they are bargain bin ....

 

I was not sure I can or people want to but with Digital only PS5 (the only one I could get at the time) I think this is important feature (which Sony might never allow.. or does it.?

 

 

Ohh and I was recovering from an accident... Had nothing else to do then play or read and playing was easier then reading 😝  and more interesting then Netflix.

 

 

But i need to get back to work and I don't have time to finish all the game. Nor do I think it is important now that I am out and about.

 

(I also have gaming PC 😉 so PS5 can go of if I can get at least some money for the games back)

i have no idea what youre talking about

I want to sell my digital only PS5 unit that does not have a disk drive.

 

I also have my ps account that has a ton of games that I paid $$$ for - those games have a as much value as the actual ps5 machine.

 

Can I sell those games (account) somehow?

 

Also can you please rename the thread to get move correct views please?

 

"Can you sell digital only PS5 games/account"

 

Thank you!

Selling an account is against Sony's terms of service. Like almost every other service out there.

 

In a technical sense you can but if Sony figures out the account has been sold, they will ban the account.

 

Then they buyer may came back at you for a refund.

i'm curious to know why the PS5 doesnt have a disk drive. Who'd want it?

The PS5 comes in 2 Models. PS5 and PS5 Digital.

 

PS5 has a disk drive and is more expensive. PS5 Digital has no Disk Drive and is less expensive.

 

I'd prefer the version with disk drive, but thats because I like buying physical media. Someone who only buys digital would seemingly have no need to pay more for the edition with the disk drive.

So, in a word, yes. If you google it you will find sites to do so: https://www.playerauctions.com/sell-psn-account/ as an example

 

Game makers lose a lot of money via resales, and people having massive gaming libraries in digital form is likely a way of retaining customers for life.

    • If you have a TV in your living room, chances are you can probably just use the Steam Link app and play your huge PC in big picture mode, effectively giving you the Steam Machine experience to see if you'd actually like it. The good news is the Steam Machine can have it's drives upgraded. It has a USB-C 10Gbs port as well, so the 512GB drive could be quickly moved to an external enclosure and repurposed.
    • This machine could very well be a second gaming PC for their living room as a console experience. So we would have to assume their main PC exists as well; With that said, I have 10gb home network with a 2.5gigabit internet connection here so we tend to have more than enough speed to download games. However, we can't make use of the 10gb LAN using Steam's built in transfer tool because it always compresses transfers and that slows the transfer down to well below a standard gigabit port speeds, sometimes as slow as 200-300Mb/s transfers. While that's probably still faster than most internet connections anyway, if they'd fix the LAN transfer issue it'd be upto x5 faster even on a gigabit LAN, than simply dropping a 2.5gbe port on there with hopes of a few people having fast internet connections. There are solutions, work arounds, like using LANCache if you run a NAS... or simply copying the files over manually using a network share.
    • Samsung announces ultra-fast UFS 5.0 storage to supercharge mobile AI by Paul Hill Local AI models tend to run a lot more slowly than cloud services like Claude and Gemini; however, Samsung has just announced that it has developed its UFS 5.0 solution, which increases data transfer to speeds of 10.8GB/s, enabling faster storage and processing in mobile memory that has the potential to provide more optimal local AI experiences. Commenting on this development, Jangseok Choi, head of Memory Product Planning at Samsung Electronics, said: If you’ve tried local AI, you’ll know it can be quite slow, especially if using the larger parameter models. By developing this new solution, Samsung says that storage is evolving from just storing data to a core piece of infrastructure that supports AI computation, too. The Korean company said that UFS 5.0 integrates the latest embedded memory interface standard from JEDEC and achieves up to 10.8 gigabytes per second (GB/s) transfer speeds. Regarding write speeds, Samsung UFS 5.0 can reach 9.5 GB/s. Both the read and write speeds are twice as fast as those of the previous UFS 4.1 standard. Aside from being ideal for local AI, Samsung’s UFS 5.0 is more power efficient by 40% compared to UFS 4.1. Samsung achieved this by implementing innovations such as clock gating and multi-voltage technologies. UFS 5.0 is also ultra-compact at just 7.5mm x 13mm x 0.9mm; that is 16.7% smaller than UFS 4.1. The company said it will be bringing it to multiple devices in the future, including mobile, wearable, and extended reality.
    • A bit like the steamdeck, this probably isn't for you.
    • Gamers Nexus already did their review, and building your own will be faster and cheaper, so not very convincing.
