This works in two ways, either by sharing \u201ccouch co-op\u201d local multiplayer experiences with a friend over the internet or by allowing them to play as if they <em>were<\/em> you. This lets your friends try out games that you own before they purchase them.<\/p>\n<p>The feature requires a base PlayStation Plus membership to work, with both parties requiring at least an Essential subscription. Sony recommends at least a 2Mbps connection (upstream and downstream) for this to work, though the faster your internet connection the better the experience should be.<\/p>\n<p>Each Share Play session lasts 60 minutes, though you\u2019re free to repeat sessions as much as you like and the feature works on both PS4 and PS5. Activate Share Play by pressing the PS button on your controller, then heading to Game Base and choosing a friend you want to play with. Start a \u201cVoice Chat\u201d with them using the relevant button, then hit the \u201cStart Share Play\u201d button to begin.<\/p>\n<p>From here you can choose to just share your screen, to let a visitor play as you, or to play in couch co-op mode together. One interesting use for this mode is to get help with a particularly challenging part of a game or to show someone an easter egg or something they may have missed.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Do_More_With_Your_PS5\"><\/span>Do More With Your PS5<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you\u2019re still considering purchasing a <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/PlayStation-5-Console\/dp\/B09DFCB66S?tag=lsmedia-13113-20\">PS5<\/a>, we\u2019d recommend opting for the slightly-pricier optical drive edition to give you more choice when it comes to buying games.<\/p>\n<p>If you already have a console, you might be surprised to hear you can hook up a keyboard and mouse for use in some games, use your old PS4 controllers to play last-generation titles, or even connect your DualSense controller to an Apple TV or iPhone and iPad for mobile gaming.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>\n setTimeout(function(){\n  !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n  {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n  n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\n  if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\n  n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n  t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n  s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s) } (window, document,'script',\n  'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n   fbq('init', '335401813750447');\n   fbq('track', 'PageView');\n  },3000);\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
