Sony will expand PlayStation 5’s Game Help feature with the addition of user-generated videos later this year.
Game Help launched alongside the console as a PlayStation Plus benefit that lets players access hints, tips, or walkthrough videos created by developers without leaving supported games, or via the PlayStation App.
“Community Game Help will add to the current Game Help experience by expanding the library of helpful game hints, incorporating videos that are automatically generated from gameplay footage of players who have opted in to contribute,” according to Sabrina Meditz, senior director of product management and platform experience at Sony Interactive Entertainment.
“When the enhanced Game Help experience featuring content from the community launches, Game Help will be available to all PS5 players, with or without a PlayStation Plus subscription,” she said.
The ability to opt in to share gameplay videos will be made available at some point over the next few months, ahead of Community Game Help’s launch as part of a PS5 update.
After opting in. PS5 will automatically capture videos when players complete certain activities in a game. These will be removed from consoles once uploaded to Sony’s servers, before being reviewed by a moderator and potentially published as Game Help hints for players to watch and rate.
Players will receive a system notification on their console if one of their videos is published, and will be able to unpublish them at any time.
“Community Game Help will start to become available in select games later this year, and our goal is to expand it to as many titles as possible in the future,” Meditz said.

The apparent specs for the as-yet unannounced PS5 Pro console were recently shared online.
Among other features, Sony’s DLSS equivalent is reportedly capable of upscaling 1080p games to 4K, and can be backwards compatible with existing PS5 games via patches.
