To use the same PlayStation Plus (PS Plus) account on two different consoles, you'll need to set one console as your primary console and use the other console as a secondary console. Here's how to do it:
1. Setting Up the Primary Console:
- Sign in to your PSN account on the console you want to set as your primary console.
- Go to "Settings" from the main menu.
- Select "Account Management" > "Activate as Your Primary PS4/PS5".
- Choose "Activate" to confirm. This console is now your primary console.
2. Setting Up the Secondary Console:
- Sign in to your PSN account on the second console.
- Navigate to "Settings" from the main menu.
- Select "Account Management" > "Activate as Your Primary PS4/PS5".
- You'll see a message saying the account is already activated on another console. Choose "Activate" to make this console your secondary console.
3. Enjoying PS Plus Benefits:
- On your primary console, all accounts on the system can enjoy PS Plus benefits, including online multiplayer, access to free games, and other PS Plus perks.
- On your secondary console, only the account that purchased the PS Plus subscription can access PS Plus benefits. Other accounts on the system can't access these benefits unless the primary account is signed in.
Keep in mind the following:
- You can only set one console as your primary console at a time.
- You can deactivate your primary console remotely from the PlayStation website if needed.
- You must have an active PS Plus subscription to access its benefits on both consoles.
- An Internet connection is required for playing online multiplayer and accessing other PS Plus features.
By setting up your consoles in this way, you can share your PS Plus subscription across two consoles with ease.
