A possible mishap within Sony could have brought an impending doom to PlayStation. However, the quick action and problem-solving attitude of the developers have helped solve a key issue, which could have brought forward legal trouble. Earlier in the year, news and reports from within the community suggested an issue within PS3, PS4, and PS5 would stop players from playing digital copies of video games.
The issue came into existence because of the death of console’s CMOS battery, which would allow owners to access digital copies. This would block out ways for players to plug and play favorite titles, as the console would require real-time check up. However, with a recent firmware update, this problem has resolved for all three major PS consoles.

According to a report by Eurogamer, firmware update 9.0 update has permanently resolved the issue. Gamers will no longer be bothered with this problem, as their digital copies will always be within arm’s reach. Issues like this would only make matters much worse for the future of video gaming industry, as the massive move from physical copies to digital is still not complete. The community still holds the physical copies at high regard and unforeseen issues with digital copies will further delay that transition.
