One of the most common questions that comes up when purchasing a capacity account is: "What's the difference between capacity 1, 2, and 3?" Since this decision directly affects the price and how you use the game, let's explain it in detail.
Capacity 1 (Primary Account)
This is the cheapest option. The game will only be activated on one console as the primary one. This means that you can only play the game on that console, both online and offline. This option is suitable for those who only have one console and don't want to share the game with anyone.
Capacity 2 (Primary + Secondary)
This allows the game to be played both online on your primary console and offline on a secondary console. This is a popular option for those who want to share the game with someone else (such as a friend or family member who has a separate console) without having to pay twice.
Capacity 3 (most flexible)
Capacity 3 usually offers the most flexibility in the number of consoles that can be used. This option is suitable for those who have multiple consoles (for example, both at home and elsewhere) or want to use the game more reliably between multiple devices.
Which capacity should I choose?
If you want one console for yourself, Capacity 1 is the most logical and affordable choice. If you want to share with someone else or have your own home console somewhere else, Capacity 2 is the best balance of price and functionality. If you're looking for the most freedom and your budget allows, Capacity 3 is the best option.
Important note: The price of each capacity is different.
Naturally, the higher the capacity (i.e., the ability to use on more consoles), the higher the price. That's why it's better to think carefully about how many consoles you really need before buying so you don't end up paying extra or being limited later.
You can now see the prices of all three capacities for the games available on the PS5 Account Purchase or PS4 Account Purchase page and purchase directly.
