PS5 has play time counter (including how long you played old PS4 games)

[platocplx]

omg, historical play time counter is amazing. Haha!

Yeah this is wild lol

 

[Belvedere]

And it's retroactive, awesome!

That cumulative No Man's Sky total is gonna be something though.

 

[Joule]

Greg Miller may show it here



I can't confirm though

 

[PJsprojects]

I wonder how that would work with games like Destiny 2,being cross play will the feature only show time played on PlayStation consoles?

He does at around 5 min 23 seconds.

 

[Elfgore]

Well shit. I guess I'll have to confront my playtime for Pirate Warriors 3 and not leave it as a 'probably a lot".

 

[Chaystic]

This is how it looks:

(Thanks Greg)

 

[s y]

Fucking yes

Pretty much, I would guess. On Steam, it only hows long I played that version.

 

[cw_sasuke]

This is great . Retroactive too ? So good.

 

[plain]

Omg. I really don't want to know how long I played a certain game. lol

 

[Platinum_D]

I love this

 

[Spidey]

Noticed play times on Exophase yesterday, so I'm guessing it'll show up on other trophy tracking websites as well.

My hall of shame...

1. Destiny (772 hours)
2. The Witcher 3 (620 hours)
3. Red Dead Redemption 2 (257 hours)
4. Marvel's Avengers (208 hours)
5. The Division (135 hours)
6. Dragon Age Inquisition (131 hours)
7. Apex Legends (123 hours)
8. Hitman 2 (114 hours)
9. The Last of Us Remastered (104 hours)
10. Grand Theft Auto V (97 hours)

 

[dbcyber]

This is fantastic I wanted this the most.

 

[Kingpin Rogers]

Woohooo!!! Sounds silly but that's now one of the things I'm most excited about.

 

[SRV]

Love it, such a simple yet cool stat to include. Love that it's retroactive too!

 

[SxP]

I'll be to ashamed to look at this...

But honestly, I hope we can rank the games by play time. And not just "last played".

 

[Madrugador]

Niceee, this is so great. Can't wait to check it out.

 

[OnanieBomb]

Yesssssss

 

[MentalZer0]

Finally.. I like that.

 

[bagandscalpel]

Oh, this is great. Been wanting to know how long I've been spending on my Dragon Quest Builders 2 projects.

 

[Dirtyshubb]

I'm scared of what it's gonna say for Fortnite z gotta be around 2,500-3,000 hours if it tracks total time.

I know that because the last 2 yearly top 3 played games they did at the end of the year had Fortnite at around 900-1,000 hours both years so it's gonna be bad lol.

Fantastic feature though, was hoping for something like this.

 

[AuthenticM]

retroactive!? Hotdamn!

 

[Kamagii]

A new way to feel ashamed of myself..

 

[giancarlo123x]

YES

 

[CorethPWilshire]

I know it's silly and it makes no sense but for some reason the retroactive play timer has become the thing I'm really excited about. It just made me happy to read it. Like, I know that the PS5 will be an amazing console but at least at launch it feels mostly novel. Now this silly feature gets announced and I'm stoked to crack that thing open.

 

[kmfdmpig]

That's very cool. It's great to see all the nice QoL additions that both Sony and MS are making.

 

[black070]

Retroactive playtimer is the most exciting part about this feature, pretty interested to see my playtimes over the last gen.

 

[Mukrab]

Alright i bow to PS5's superiority then.

 

[Strike]

THANK GOD. About time.

 

[Lexad]

I hope I can see Rita PS4 playtime over the years

 

[Dphex]

Finally a counter. and retroactive too, that is cool.

 

[Launchpad]

Yes! Sony da gawds! Seriously though this is one of the things I really wanted for some dumb reason.

 

[No Idea]

Is there a way to turn this off?

Click to shrink...

Hopefully. I don't wanna feel like I should be playing a game more, or less lol.

 

[Praedyth]

Is there anyway to see that in advance?

 

[nib95]

I sincerely hope my wife doesn't find out about this feature lol.

 

[Deleted member 13015]

Finally, I love this feature on Steam/Nintendo 3DS.

 

[Euler007]

Now I can look at shame at my MHW playtime while still not having any weapons enchant.

 

[Malkier]

Cool but let me turn it off. I don't want people to see my play time.

 

[ElephantShell]

Scared of my MLB The Show 19 and 20 hours tbh.

 

[JoeNut]

Man i just watched playstation access' 7 things you didn't know about the ps5 and that wasn't in it.
Greatly needed feature, awesome

 

[Katana_Strikes]

Brilliant little feature. Nothing important really but it's great to actually know when most games don't tell you.

 

[Praedyth]

Cool but let me turn it off. I don't want people to see my play time.

I'm actually hoping for a way to showcase my Destiny play time on my profile. 😐

 

[Colasante]

Holy shit! Such a small thing, but something I've always wanted and never understood why it wasn't given to us. Thanks, Sony!

 

[Ciao]

I'm not exagerating when I say it's my most hype feature of all this next gen lineup. Can't wait to see how much time I burned on fighting games, roguelikes and multiplayer shooters this gen. We got so many incredible titles!

 

[Malkier]

I'm actually hoping for a way to showcase my Destiny play time on my profile. 😐

That's one of the games I'm trying to hide 😐

 

[hydruxo]

Excellent news. Finally!

 

[cosmickosm]

Great news for those that want this but pleaseeeee let me turn this off. I don't want to see this lol

 

[Bman94]

FUCKING FINALLY. Sony was the only one of the big 3 holding out on a play time counter. It shouldn't have taken this long.

 

[TriGen]

A play time tracker for PlayStation is the one thing I wanted added for PS5 I love those stats for some reason and I always thought it was weird that PS4 never got it when Nintendo had done it for years and Xbox One had it.
