  2. Go to Settings > Users and Accounts.

  3. Scroll down to the Other tab. Select Console Sharing and Offline Play and enable it.

  4. On your friend’s PS5, log in using your PSN credentials.

That’s it. You can now share your games with your friends. To disable the feature, follow the above steps again.
